Methodological problems in fMRI studies on acupuncture: a critical review with special emphasis on visual and auditory cortex activations [PDF]
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been used for more than a decade to investigate possible supraspinal mechanisms of acupuncture stimulation. More than 60 studies and several review articles have been published on the topic.

Tissue incision induces CXCL5 release, which activates neuronal CXCR2 on incision‐innervating sensory neurons. Neuronal CXCR2 couples with TRPA1 to drive mechanical pain and engages p38 MAPK signaling to upregulate TRPV1 and promote heat pain. Targeted Cxcr2 knockdown relieves incisional pain while preserving CXCR2‐dependent neutrophil responses ...

Acupuncture at Feishu (BL13), Shenshu (BL23), Yingxiang (LI20), and Dazhui (GV14) alleviates allergic rhinitis by activating the AMPK/PGC‐1α/NRF1/TFAM signalling axis. This activation improves mitochondrial biogenesis and function, reduces mtROS‐mediated oxidative stress, restores ATP production and respiratory complex I/IV activity, suppresses IgE and

Perivascular matrix densification promotes the emergence of aberrant endothelial tip cells (ATECs) that invade and persist within fibrotic microenvironments. Using in vivo lineage tracing and a human microvessel model, this study shows that fibrous matrix cues destabilize VE‐cadherin–mediated junctions to gate TGF‐β signaling, inducing a pro ...
