The aim of the present paper was to observe the effects of needling ST40 and PC6 on IL-17 of ApoE(-/-) mice with fatty liver. Forty male ApoE(-/-) mice were randomized into Needling-Acupoint Group, Simvastatin Intragastric Administration Group, Needling Nonacupoint Group, and Model Group. Each was fed with high fat diet for 8 weeks since 16 weeks of age; after 8 weeks of intervention, mice were sacrificed and tested for various examinations. Result showed that the body weight, TC, and serum IL-17 in Needling-Acupoint Group decreased. Compared with Model Group, the immunohistochemical expressions of IL-17 in liver tissue were significantly decreased among the other three groups. In conclusion, acupuncture was able to lower the expression of IL-17 level both in serum and liver tissue in ApoE(-/-) mice, which is helpful to reduce the inflammation and defers the progress from fatty liver to cirrhosis.
本研究旨在观察针刺 ST40 和 PC6 对载脂蛋白 E 基因敲除（ApoE(-/-)）小鼠脂肪肝模型白细胞介素 17（IL-17）的影响。40 只雄性 ApoE(-/-)小鼠随机分为针刺穴位组、辛伐他汀灌胃组、针刺非穴位组和模型组。16 周龄起，每组给予高脂饲料喂养 8 周；干预 8 周后处死小鼠并进行各项检测。结果显示，针刺穴位组的体重、总胆固醇（TC）和血清白细胞介素 17（IL-17）水平降低。与模型组相比，其他三组肝组织中 IL-17 的免疫组化表达均显著降低。综上所述，针刺可降低 ApoE(-/-) 小鼠血清和肝组织中 IL-17 水平，有助于减轻炎症反应，延缓从脂肪肝向肝硬化的进展。
