针刺对实验性肥胖大鼠下丘脑摄食中枢的影响
Effect of acupuncture on feeding center of hypothalamus in experimental obese rats
摘要
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The therapeutic effects of acupuncture on weight loss have been verified. How does the central neural system act on weight loss with acupuncture?What relationships are there between the central regulation and peripheral action?OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of acupuncture on feeding center of hypothalamus in obese cases.DESIGN: Randomized and controlled study in which the experimental animals were taken as the subjects.SETTING: Clinical medical college of a university of traditional chinese medicine.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Key Laboratory of Acupuncture and Moxibustion in Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 1998 to January 2000. Fifty SD male rats were employed and randomized into acupuncture group, obese group and normal group.METHODS: The experimental obese model was prepared by feeding SD rats with high-fat forage. Microelectrode record of nerve cell and cerebral stereotaxic technique were applied, by the treatment with acupuncture on experimental obese rats, the electric activity (Hz) of nerve cell was observed at unit time in hunger center of lateral hypothalamus area(LHA) and satiety center of ventral medium nucleus of hypothalamus(VMH).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mass changes at the same stage before and after acupuncture in rats of every group and discharge frequency in LHA and VMH in rats of every group.RESULTS: Acupuncture reduced remarkably the excitability in LHA, the values of which in acupuncture, obese and normal groups were(9.4 ± 3.7),(21.4 ± 6. 8), (9. 1 ± 5.2) Hz respectively( P < 0. 01 ); improved electric activity frequency in VMH, the values of which in 3 groups were (21.1 ± 4. 3), (5.0 ± 1.3), ( 14. 5 ± 2. 2)Hz, respectively( P < 0.01 ), inhibited excessive appetite of obese rats and reduced calorie intake so as to achieve weight loss.CONCLUSION: The regulation of acupuncture on central neural nuclei in obese animals is one of the important mechanisms on weight loss.关键词
