Effects of acupuncture at the Taichong (LIV3) and Hegu (LI4) points on functional connectivity with the retrosplenial cortex in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
Front Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Aerospace Center Hospital, Beijing, China.
Background: Acupuncture has been demonstrated to have a promising effect on Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) is one of the earliest brain regions affected in AD, and changes in its functional connectivity (FC) are reported to underlie disease-associated memory impairment. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of acupuncture on FC with the RSC in patients with AD.

Purpose: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent degenerative bone and joint disease observed in clinical practice. While acupuncture has demonstrated efficacy in treating KOA, the central mechanisms underlying its effects remain ambiguous. Recently, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been extensively applied in studying the brain mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia.

Department of Rheumatism and Immunity, First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tianjin, People's Republic of China.
Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the sacroiliac joints and spine. Cuproptosis is a newly recognized copper-induced cell death mechanism. Our study explored the novel role of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in AS, focusing on immune cell infiltration and molecular clustering.

Acupuncture and Moxibustion College, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Introduction: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease. Patients with UC typically exhibit disruption of the Treg/Th17 immune axis, but its exact mechanism is still unclear.
Methods: This study first analyzed RNA- seq data from public databases of humans and mice, and cytology experiments were conducted to induce or inhibit the expression of SIRT1.
