Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) at "Zhiyang" (GV9) and "Jizhong" (GV6) of the Governor Vessel on the expression of calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP)and NOD-like receptor pyrin containing 3 (NLRP3) in the injured anterior horn (AH) of rats with spinal cord injury (SCI), so as to explore its mechanisms underlying improvement of SCI. METHODS: after SCI were detected by Western blot. CONCLUSION: EA of GV6 and GV9 can improve the locomotion of SCI rats, which may be associated with its function in up-regulating the expression of CGRP and down-regulating the expression of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 proteins in the spinal anterior horn tissue.
