Abstract EN
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are the main regulators of diverse physiological processes.
Recently, miRNAs have emerged as significant players related to the effect of acupuncture although the biological mechanisms connecting the function of these miRNAs with the effect of acupuncture are not well understood.
In animal models of various diseases, such as neurological disease, cardiovascular disease, myopathy, and pain, a number of miRNAs were altered after administration of electroacupuncture or manual acupuncture.
Nonetheless, there are a limited number of studies published so far.
This paper reviewed and discussed whether miRNAs could elucidate potential biological mechanism of acupuncture in the future studies.
