Electroacupuncture Inhibits the Activity of Astrocytes in Spinal Cord in Rats with Visceral Hypersensitivity by Inhibiting P2Y1 Receptor-Mediated MAPK/ERK Signaling Pathway
Figure 4
The effect of ERK1/2 inhibitor SCH on electroacupuncture-mediated inhibition of astrocyte activity. (a)–(d) AWRs scores under 20, 40, 60, and 80 mmHg CRD in the presence of ERK1/2 inhibitor SCH with and without EA. The experimental groups were Model, SCH, SCH + EA, and SCH + ADP. (e) GFAP protein level in the spinal cord, n = 8. (f) GFAP mRNA level in the spinal cord, n = 8.
