  • Title: [The relation between protective effect of moxibustion on gastric mucosa and mucus].
    Author: Chen Y, Cao Y, Xiao D, Ceu C, Chen M.
    Journal: Zhen Ci Yan Jiu; 1993; 18(4):300-4. PubMed ID: 7923737.
    Abstract:
    Our previous works have proved that moxibustion at "ShenJue" plays a role in protecting gastric mucosa in the experimental gastric ulcer model rat. The present studies are designed to determine whether the mechanisms of moxibustion protecting gastric mucosa are mediated by mucus. The results are as follows: Either before or after the experimental gastric ulcer model had formed, moxibustion treatment would markedly increase the ratio of PAS positive staining layer to total length of gastric gland (p < 0.05), and the combined gastric mucus of stomach (P < 0.05). These results are negatively correlated to gastric ulcer area and suggest that the mechanisms of moxibustion protection on gastric mucosa are mediated by mucus in the experimental gastric ulcer model rat.
