It is well known that acupuncture is effective for treatment of gastric disease in human. We have observed the effect of acupuncturing "Zhongwan" "Neiguan" "Zusanli" on fluorohistochemical changes of G cells of antral mucosa in 42 patients with gastric disease. The results show that after acupuncture treatment the amount of fluorescent G cells and the fluorescent intensity of gastrin in the G cells were obviously decreased in patients with duodenal ulcer, as compared with that before acupuncture treatment. However, the amount of G cells was increased by acupuncture treatment in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis. These data indicate the acupuncture may regulate G cell from abnormal to normal condition in gastric mucosa of gastric disease.
众所周知，针灸对人类胃部疾病的治疗是有效的。我们观察了针刺“中脘”“内关”“足三里”对42例胃部疾病患者胃窦黏膜G细胞荧光组织化学变化的影响。结果显示，与针刺治疗前相比，十二指肠溃疡患者针刺治疗后G细胞的数量及G细胞中胃泌素的荧光强度明显降低。然而，慢性萎缩性胃炎患者针刺治疗后G细胞数量增加。这些数据表明，针灸可能使胃部疾病患者胃黏膜中的G细胞从异常状态调节至正常状态。
