Electroacupuncture analyzed, stimulation of hypothalamic aromatization shown
Published in Medical Devices and Surgical Technology Week, June 19th, 2005
"We have previously reported that the repeated electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation significantly increased the concentrations of circulating estradiol and restored the depressed function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis (HPOA) in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. We hypothesized that extragonadal aromatization in specific brain areas might be responsible for these changes.
"Thus, various assays, including radiometric assay, Western blot, and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), were employed to determine...
