Abstract:
Objective To explore influence of electroacupuncture on somatostatin expression of newborn neurons in the hippocampus of chronic epilepsy rats.Methods The double-label immunofluorescence with confocal microscope was used to observe somatostatin expression of newborn neurons in the hippocampus of chronic epilepsy rats after electroacupuncture stimulation of Dazhui (GV14)' and Baihui (GV20)' in DuMai.Results Somatostatin expression of newborn neurons was found in the hippocampus.Moreover,in somatostatin expression of newborn neurons,epileptic rats with electroacupuncture had less than epileptic rats in the hippocampus.The former had an obviously significant difference compared with the latter (P
