Abstract:
Ischemic cerebrovascular disease is a common and frequently emergency, and leads to disability and death. In recent years,inflammatory reaction is thought as the key to secondary injury after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. Inflammatory cells, as the target of inflammatoryfactors, infiltrate and gather in the ischemic areas leading to secondary neurological injury and enlarge the infarct size. Acupuncturemay adjust the activity of inflammatory cells.
