Effect of acupuncture stimulation on MPTP-induced reduction of cell proliferation in the subventricular zone (SVZ). (a) BrdU-specific immunofluorescence staining in the SVZ. (b) The number of BrdU-positive cells in the SVZ. MPTP reduces the number of BrdU-positive cells in the SVZ, but the acupuncture stimulation at GB34 restored it significantly. CC: cerebral cortex. ST: striatum. Scale bar = 20 µm. Data are shown as the mean ± standard error of the mean. ∗P < 0.05 and ∗∗P < 0.01 versus saline group, #P < 0.05 versus MPTP group, and †P < 0.05 versus HT7 group.
