SEGMENTAL DISTRIBUTIONS OF SENSORY NEURONS OF THE "GANSHU", "PISHU", "LIANGMEN", "QIMEN" POINTS AND THE GALLBLADDER

One hundred guinea pigs were used. The 10% HRP 50—60 μ1 solution was injected into the acupoints of "Gansu", "Pisu", "Liangmen" and "Qimen" of every animal. Moreover, the 10% HRP 80—100 solution was injected into the gallbladder of the another animals too. Under the microscope, observed the segmental distributions of sensory neurons of the four acupoints and the gallbladder. It could be found much clearly that HRP labelled cells were appearing in the spinal ganglions. The above experimental studies showed that there are mutual intersect 5—7 segments between the gallbladder and the "Gansu", "Pisu", "Liangmen" and "Qimen" four acupoints. It is probable that the mutual intersect is the neuroanatomic foundation of acupuncture and moxibustion to inhibit the formation of bilirubin gallstones.
