Super microscope visualizes electroacupuncture's anti-inflammatory effects in mice

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new high-resolution mesoscale microscope, RUSH3D-HR, has enabled scientists to observe the effects of electroacupuncture on immune cells in live mice. The microscope captured how electroacupuncture applied to a specific acupoint visibly suppressed the movement of immune cells towards sites of inflammation in the spleen. This technology offers a real-time view into biological processes, potentially advancing the understanding of immune responses and disease treatments with reduced tissue damage. AI

    How electroacupuncture calms inflammation and the super microscope that showed it

    A cutting-edge microscope has allowed scientists to capture in real time how electroacupuncture directs the movement of immune cells inside living mice, offering a direct window into the biological mechanisms behind the therapy. The high-resolution mesoscale microscope called RUS…
