ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To provide some possible theoretical and experimental basis for the modern biomedical mechanism of "receiving stimulation, preventing and treating diseases", by exploring the effects of pressure signal's biological transformation of rat "Zusanli" (ST 36) fascia tissue fibroblasts under mechanical stimulation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Pressure was given on rat "Zusanli" (ST 36) and its adjacent area's fascia tissue cells cultured in vitro and identified by morphology. The contents of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in culture medium were detected.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The fascia tissue cells in "Zusanli" and its adjacent area are almost consisted of fibroblasts. The pressure stimulation significantly accelerated the synthesis and release of PGE2 and IL-6.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupoint and non-acupoint fibroblasts can directly receive mechanical stimulation, and then the mechanical signals were transformed as biological ones.</p>
