Effects of Massage on Satellite Cells of Acute Contusive Skeletal Muscles

摘要

Objective: To study the mechanism of Tuina in the treatment of skeletal muscle injury. Methods: Rabbits were heavily beaten at gastrocnemius muscle to make acute contusion model and then treated respectively by early Tuina and routine Tuina. The number of satellite cells of skeletal muscles was observed. Results: The number of the satellite cells continued to grow in both groups, and it began to increase significantly 3-5 days after Tuina treatment. Early Tuina treatment produces larger number of satellite cells than routine Tuina treatment.Conclusion: Early Tuina treatment is helpful to the marked recovery of skeletal muscles by increasing the number of satellite cell.%目的:探讨推拿治疗骨骼肌损伤的机理.方法:以重物打击方式造成腓肠肌急性挫伤模型,施以早期推拿治疗和常规推拿治疗,观察骨骼肌卫星细胞数量变化.结果:各组卫星细胞数量均呈持续上升趋势,常规治疗组和早期手法组的卫星细胞数量在3～5 d时就开始有大幅度上升.早期手法组卫星细胞数量多于常规治疗组.结论:早期手法对卫星细胞数增加作用明显有助于骨骼肌功能恢复.
