title: [Effect of acupuncture on the catecholamine content in the hypothalamus and brain stem of rats with an experimental stomach ulcer].
abstract: Significant increase of dopamine (DA) in hypothalamus and epinephrine (E) in the brain stem were revealed in the experiment on rats with experimental gastric ulcer (EGU). An acupuncture (AP) session produces a prominent increase in DOPA and especially DA in hypothalamus of the rat with EGU. Under the same conditions A, DOPA and DA in the brain stem increased as compared to the control. It is assumed that acupuncture produces a correcting effect on the reconstructive processes of catecholaminergic systems of the brain occurring in visceral pathology.
