Objective: To observe the effect of auricular needling on abilities of learning and memory as well as expression of NMDAR1 in rats with vascular dementia(VD).Methods:VD rat model was established by blocking 4-vessel.The immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the changes of NMDAR1 expression,the Y-type maze test was used to measure the abilities of learning and memory.Results:There were slight expression of NMDAR1cells in the brain tissue of normal group.Compared with the normal group,the expression of NMDAR1 positive cells in model group were significantly enhanced,but the average optical density is obvious reduced(P

Objective:To provide some experimental basis of cell biomechanics for clinic treatment of massage by exploring synthesis and liberation of NO and IL-1? from fascia tissue cells of rat under pressure stimulation in vitro.Methods:Fascia tissue cells of rat were cultured in vitro.After morphological identi cation,50kPa pressure was forced on these cells,then the contents of NO and IL-1? in culture medium were detected.Results:The fascia tissue cells are mainly made up of broblast cells.The contents of NO and IL-1? in culture medium were both increased signi cantly under pressure stress.Conclusion:Fascia tissue cells can receive the mechanical stimulation,and transform the mechanical signals into biological signals.The reaction to mechanical stimulation may be one of the cell biomechanical principles of massage.
