Immunoregulation of Acupuncture and Moxibustion on Wind-Stroke

All of the immunoreactions including nonspecific inflammation, T-cell-mediated immunity, and humoral immunity play important roles in the onset and devolopment of wind-stroke. Through intervening some links of the immunologic process and reducing immunologic injury, acu-moxibustion has become one of the effective remedies for wind-stroke. This article reviews development of researches on the immunoregulation effect and mechanism of acu-moxibustion treatment in stroke patients and experimental cerebral hemorrhage animals from 1) immunoregulation of acu-moxibustion on human body, 2) effect of acu-moxibustion in relieving inflammatory reactions in acute cerebral hemorrhage animals, and 3) effect of acu-moxibustion on the specific immunity in acute cerebrovascular diseases.
