Effect of Electroacupuncture at “Neiguan” (PC 6) and “Tianshu” (ST 25) for Colonic Motility and D2 Receptor in Irritable Bowel Syndrome Rats
Objective To observe and compare the effects of electroacupuncture(EA)at"Tianshu"(ST 25)and"Neiguan"(PC 6)for colonic motility and the expression of colon dopamine D 2 in irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)rats
and to explore the specificity of different meridians and different acupoints.Methods Forty Wistar newborn rats were randomly divided into blank
model
Tianshu and Neiguan groups.Separation of mother and child and acetic acid coloclyster combined with colorectal distension were used to establish IBS model in the model
Tianshu and Neiguan groups.At the age of 9 weeks
EA at bilateral ST 25 and PC 6 were applied in the corresponding groups 5 times
once every other day.After the intervention
the Bristol fecal score
the latent period of abdominal retraction reflex and the number of contraction waves were recorded.The expression of dopamine D 2 receptor was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with the blank group
the Bristol fecal score of the model group was higher(P<0.01)
the 1 st contraction wave latent period was shorter(P<0.01)
the number of contraction waves in 90 sincreased(P<0.01)
the immunoreactive expression of D 2 receptor in colon decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group
the Bristol fecal scores of the Tianshu and Neiguan groups decreased(P<0.01)
the 1 st contraction wave latent periods were longer(P<0.01)
the numbers of contraction waves in 90 sdecreased(P<0.01)
the positive expressions of D 2 receptor in colon increased(P<0.01
P<0.05).Compared with the Tianshu group
the immunoreactive expression of D 2 receptor in the Neiguan group decreased(P<0.01).Conclusion EA at ST 25 and PC 6 can improve the symptoms of colonic motility in IBS rats.The effect of EA at ST 25 is better
which indicates that different meridians and different acupoints play specific effects.
