Abstract:
In order to observe the febrifugal response of needling "Chang Qiang Point", and analyse its mechanism lumbar spinal cord of rabbits were damaged in the expermental study. The experimental findings were as follows: 1. It was found that cAMP content in csf was striking increased, when leukocytic pyrogen fever of rabbits was significant. During needling "Chang Qiang Point" of febrile rabbits, however, febrile response was markedly inhibited(at 60 min~?T℃ was 0.23?0.07 and TRI4 0.61?0.03). There was significant difference(P0.05). 3. After damaging lumbar spinal cord of rabbits, there were certain change of rectal temperature and the febrile response, but it had no effect on cAMP content in csf. The authors infered that the impulses from "Chang Qiang Point" transmiled Via spinal cord might be closely associated with reflex mechanism and the change of cAMP content might play an important role in the mechanism of febrifugal effect during needling "Chang Qiang Point" in febrile rabbits.
