Changes in Nitric Oxide Releases of the Contralateral Acupoint during and after Laser Acupuncture at Bilateral Same-Name Acupoints in Human

<div><i>Schematic illustration of the biocapture device and LA at relevant points:</i> (a) at right PC6 acupoint (RPC6) and right nonacupoint (Rnon-acupoint) (bottom); at left PC6 acupoint (LPC6) and left nonacupoint (Lnon-acupoint) (top). (b) LA at RPC6 for 40 min and NO was collected from the LPC6 acupoint. (c) 0.3 ml PTIO solution (200 <i>μ</i>M) was injected into the sterilized dialysis tube (0.5 × 5 cm) and directly contacted with LPC6 for 40 min. The experiment was performed at the same time of each day and in restful, calm conditions with the room temperature at 24–26°C, the relative humidity maintained at 45%  ± 15%.</div>
