Altered metabolites in guinea pigs with allergic asthma after acupoint sticking therapy: New insights from a metabolomics approach

Clinical evidence gathered in Chinese communities suggested that acupoint sticking therapy could be an alternative treatment for asthma-related diseases. However, its underlying mechanism is still poorly understood. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of the anti-inflammatory effect of acupoint sticking application with ‘Treatment of Winter Disease in Summer’ (TWDS) prescription by using metabolomics. Allergic asthma in guinea...
