ABSTRACT
To explore the mechanism of acupoint embedding for obesity based on the western pathological mechanism of chronic low inflammatory response inducing the imbalance between"promoting inflammation"and"anti-inflammation"in immune reaction, and the pathological nature of deficient healthy and state of evil domination in the TCM theory induced by the"stagnation heat, phlegm heat, dampness heat, stasis heat"on the basis of deficiency. The mechanism may be improving the secretory disorder of adipose tissue and metabolic inflammatory response by the enhanced anti-inflammatory phagocytosis clearance ability in the immune system which is caused by the new inflammatory reaction under the stimulation of innate immune response pattern. The model of"inhibiting chronic low inflammation reaction through the innate immunity"may be an important mechanism of acupoint embedding for obesity.
