Acupuncture causes significant depletion of adrenal ascorbicacid content in rats. Graded acupuncture shows a correlationbetween amount of stimulation and response. The sensitivity ofmale is lower than that of female and could be improved bycastration. After acupuncture the bicassey detectable ACTHactivity in blood increases promptly, reaching the peak Within2.5 min and then declines. All these demonstrated that acupunc-ture activates pituitary-adrenocortical system which may at leastpartly explain the overall resistance enhancing, anti-inflammatoryand anti-hypersensitive effects of acupuncture.
