Abstract
A preliminary report is presented on the possible effect of acupuncture on immune responses in rabbits injected with sheep RBC and in guninea pigs with an encephalitogenic antigen prepartion. Results from acupuncturing experimental animals at four loci-Ta-Cü, Tsu San-Li, Ch'ü-Ch'ih and Chih-Shih - strongly suggest that acupuncture has an effect on the immune response. If these observations can be substaintiated by more refined methods in subsequent experiments, a new avenue will be opened for acupuncture research.
