Effects of Water extract of Seahorse Hippocampus on testosterone secretion in male mice

partially removed for optical imaging. The exposed surface of the cortex was stained with voltagesensitive dye for 1 hour. After 10minutes of EA stimulation with low frequency/high intensity or high frequency/low intensity on Zusanli (ST36) and Yinlingquan (SP9), optical signals were recorded from the primary somatosensory (SI) cerebral cortexusingoptical imaging. Results: The displayed cortex images showed propagated and amplified neural activities in the SI cortex area after electrical stimulation of the peripheral receptive field of nerve-injured rats. After EA stimulation with either low frequency/high intensity or high frequency/low intensity, optical signals and the area of activation in the SI cortex decreased substantially and were followed by time-dependent recovery. Conclusion: This study provides solid evidence that EA stimulation with low frequency/high intensity or high frequency/low intensity has similar inhibitory effects on the excited neuronal signaling caused by painful stimuli.
