Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms of sacral acupuncture stimulation for overactive bladder model rats. The intercontraction interval (ICI) was prolonged after sacral acupuncture stimulation in acetic acid-induced bladder irritation (AA) rats and hydrochloric-induced cystitis rats but cychrophosphamide-induced cystitis rats. The effect of sacral acupuncture stimulation might be different from the cause of bladder conditions. The stimulation of moxibution to lower abdomen was more prolonged ICI than sacral stimulation of moxibution in AA rats. The difference of stimulation modalities would affect the effectiveness of stimulation of sacral lesion. Cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor inhibitor suppressed the prolonged ICI by sacral acupuncture stimulation in AA rats. It was considered that CB1 receptor could be a part of mechanisms of sacral acupuncture stimulation for overactive bladder.
