Influence of electroacupuncture therapy of tonifying the kidney and regulating governor vessel on Aβ related degradation enzymes in the hippocampus of a rat model of Alzheimer's disease induced by Aβ1-42

ConclusionEA therapy of tonifying the kidney and regulating governor vessel can enhance the expression of IDE, LPL, TTR, APoE, and α2M in the hippocampus of AD rats injected by Aβ1-42, and may consequently promote the degradation of aβ1-42 to help improve the pathological manifestations of AD and therefore delay its progression.
