The effect and mechanism on gastric juice secretion by electroacupuncturing at Zusanli points on rabbits with modern apparatuses were studied. Zusanli points were stimulated with electroacupunctures to observe the flux of gastric juice in the study. Before and after Cimetidine being injected by the pathway of points, Zusanli points were respectively stimulated with electroacupunctures to observe the flux of gastric juice secretion. The results showed that the flux of gastric juice slowered (P0.05) when the stopping acupuncture group for 10 minutes compared with the during acupuncturing group, but after Cimetidine being injected, the flux of gastric juice secretion did not increase obviously (P>0.05) during acupuncturing for 10 minutes compared with the no acupuncturing group, and also did not increase (P>0.05) stopping acupuncture for 10 minutes compared with no acupuncture. So the study showed that the flux of gastric juice secretion could be increased by electroacupuncturing at Zusanli points, and the mechanism may be come true by the gastric H2 receptor pathway.
