Acupuncture has been in use clinically for a long period, and held its first Symposium to discuss its physiological mechanisms in the history of IUPS in 2001. The Symposium has been summarized in these proceedings, which cover the physiological mechanisms of afferent properties and analgesic effect of acupuncture, modulation of cardiovascular functions by acupuncture, modulation of autonomic functions by acupuncture, andmodulation of endocrine and immune function by acupuncture. The Symposium and its proceedings give scientific information on physiological mechanisms of acupuncture, and will greatly increase our scientific knowledge on acupuncture.
Preface. Afferent properties and effect of acupuncture on pain. Is there a physiological basis for the use of acupuncture in pain? (T. Lundeberg, E. Stener-Victorin). Pain modulation triggered by high-intensity stimulation: implication for acupuncture analgesia? (D. Le Bars, J.-C. Willer). Acupuncture mechanisms for clinical long-term effects, a hypothesis (C. Carlsson). Afferent nerve characteristics during acupuncture stimulation (K. Toda). The polymodal receptor hypothesis of acupuncture and moxibustion, and its rational explanation of acupuncture points (K. Kawakita, K. Itoh, K. Okada). Effect of acupuncture on cardiovascular functions and diseases. Neural mechanisms of the effect of acupuncture on cardiovascular diseases (P. Li). Central and peripheral neural mechanisms of acupuncture in myocardial ischemia (J.C. Longhurst). Effect of acupuncture-like stimulation on cortical cerebral blood flow in anesthetized rats (S. Uchida et al.). Influence of electroacupuncture on stress-induced hypertension and its mechanism (L. Li et al.). Cardiovascular beneficial effects of Neiguan (PC-6) electroacupuncture on normotension and hypotension in anesthetized open-chest dog (Y. Syuu, Y. Zhou, H. Suga). Effect of acupuncture on autonomic, endocrine, and immune functions. Reflex modulation of visceral functions by acupuncture-like stimulation in anesthetized rats (A. Sato, Y. Sato, S. Uchida).
