the authors review advances in the investigation on mechanisms of acumoxi in resisting leukopenia due to chemotherapy induced myeloid inhibition from ① research methods; ② mechanisms of acumoxi in raising leukocytes from types of leukocytes; marrow cell classification; hemopoietic stem cell; hematopoietic humeral regulative factor; and extra marrow hematopoietic tissue; and ③ summary and prospects
and try to provide experimental evidence for acumoxi in treating other hemopoietic disorders. Through reviewing the studies in recent years on this subject
the present paper makes the conclusion and preview: Acumoxi therapy has the confirmed effects
its mechanism is of multi links
multi layers and multi levels. The dynamics of blood cell formation
the sort of leucopoiesis
protection of hemopoietic stem cells
and activity of humeral regulation factors are all involved. Besides
hemopoietic microenvironments are also involved in the regulation
