Abstract:
In this model, carrageenin was used to induce pleurisy in rat. cAMP was measured with protein binding assay and cGMP with radioimmunoassay. The invest igation was designed to study the anti-exudative influence of the electric acupuncture in the process of inflammation with changes in cAMP, cGMP concentrations and their rel- ationship with the amount of exudete. The results showed that 12 to 24 hrs after inflammation, with the increase of exudate, cAMP concentration decreased and cGMP concentration increased. The exudate of the acupuncture group was obviosly less than in the control group (P
