Involvement of Interleukin-10 in the Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Sanyinjiao (SP6) Acupuncture in a Mouse Model of Peritonitis

<table>Effect of SP6 acupuncture on MPO activity in peritoneal fluid from carrageenan-induced peritonitis in mice. Mice received sterile saline (NaCl, 0.9%, i.p., C), carrageenan (750 <i>μ</i>g/mice, Cg), stimulation of the sham acupoint (10 min, NA) plus Cg or stimulation of SP6 acupoint (10 min, SP6) plus Cg. Each column represents the mean ± SEM of four to five animals. ***<i>P</i> &lt; .001 compared with the carrageenan group, and <sup>###</sup><i>P</i> &lt; .001 compared to control group (one-way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keul's test).</table>
