Acupuncture Modulates Neurotransmitter‐Related Molecules in the Amygdala to Ameliorate Generalized Anxiety Disorder

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
Acupuncture alleviates anxiety‐like behaviors by modulating functional brain regions and neurotransmitter‐related gene expression. In both human and animal models, this study confirms that acupuncture regulates amygdala activity, offering potential for anxiety management. ABSTRACT Background Neurotransmitter imbalance is a key mechanism contributing to

Efficacy, Safety and Immunomodulatory Effect of Intramuscular Injections of Autologous Whole Blood Into Acupoints in Patients With Atopic Dermatitis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
In a randomized trial of 31 moderate‐to‐severe atopic dermatitis patients, weekly intramuscular injection of autologous whole blood into bilateral acupoints (ST36, SP10, LI11, and Ashi; n = 23) was comparable to subcutaneous dupilumab injection (n = 8) over 8 weeks, improving SCORAD/IgE, with greater pruritus/sleep relief and broader cytokine ...
