Effect of Electroacupuncture at ST36 on Gastric-Related Neurons in Spinal Dorsal Horn and Nucleus Tractus Solitarius
Figure 3
Effects of homolateral EA at ST36 on the firing rate of gastric-related neurons in SDH and NTS. A: stimulation of ST36 in excitatory gastric-related neurons of SDH; the firing rates were inhibited and decreased from Hz to Hz (). B: stimulation of ST36 in excitatory gastric-related neurons of NTS; the firing rates increased from Hz to Hz (). C: stimulation of ST36 in excitatory gastric-related neurons of NTS: the firing rates increased from Hz to Hz after EA, but there was no significant difference (, ). D: stimulation of ST36 in inhibitory gastric-related neurons of NTS; the firing rates increased from Hz to Hz ().
