ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the protective effect of electroacupuncture against acute lung injury (ALI) in septic rats and explore the mechanism.@*METHODS@#Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis group (@*RESULTS@#Compared with those in the sham operation group, the rats in ALI group showed obvious lung pathologies with significantly increased lung W/D ratio (@*CONCLUSIONS@#Electroacupuncture can inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators and cell apoptosis via the JAK1/STAT3 pathway to reduce lung injuries in septic rats.
