摘要
5-羟色胺作为参与针刺效应的重要中枢调控物质,在阐述针刺效应作用机制中有着重要的研究价值。大量实验研究已证明针刺能显著影响中枢5-羟色胺的含量及活动,且不同条件下针刺对5-羟色胺影响不同。本文就近年来国内外中枢5-羟色胺及其受体在针刺效应中的作用研究现状作了回顾,并结合以往的研究提出新的看法和研究思路。
As for an important central regulatory neurotransmitter involving acupuncture effect, serotonin(5-HT)is worthy of being paid with more attention. In the present paper, the authors review development of researches on the involvement of 5-HT and its receptor subunits in pain perception, acupuncture analgesia, and other effects of acupuncture (anti-depression, weight-re- duction, etc. ). Many studies showed that acupuncture intervention could modulate the content and activity of central 5-HT, and these changes varied under different conditions. Hence, the relationship between 5-HT and other neurotransmitters in acupuncture analgesia and its different functions in different regions of the central nervous system should be considered comprehensively.
