ABSTRACT
Studies on relationship between insulin secretion and 8 meridian points, namely St-39, Ren-12, LI-11, UB-20, UB-18, St-36, Sp-8, and Liv-3 which are extensively used for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, revealed that LI-11 and UB-18 are closely related to secretion of insulin.<br>The twelve segmentations of Hirata, LI-11 corresponds to the 5th response zone of upper extremity region and UB-18 to the 5th response zone of truncal region, respectively. In order to investigate relationship between insulin secretion and the 5th response zone of Hirata's twelve segmentations, GB-10 of capital region, St-3 of collar region, SI-16 of facial region and Sp-6 of lower extremity region were stimulated by placing needle during oral glucose loading and insulin secretion was evaluated.<br>As a result, none of the meridian point locating in the 5th response zone in each region of Hirata's twelve segmentations showed positive relation to insulin secretion, except LI-11 of upper extrmity region and UB-18 of truncal region.
