Moxibustion Dm Ed Rat Penile Erectile Function And Levels Of Ages

Objective: To study the effect of moxibustion in erectile function and Advanced glycosylation end products of Erectile function in Diabetic rats.Method: 110 Male Sprague-Dawley rats with normal Erectile function were injected with streptozotozin (STZ) to make experimental models of diabetes mellitus(DM). then injected with apomorphine in all of the DM rats to select erectile dysfunction rats models with diabetes. The normal 10 rats is the Normal group, the ED rats were devided into Model group and Moxibustion group in random.The Moxibustion group received Moxibustion on acupoint Shenshu and San Yin Jiao. Examine the change of Erectile of the three groups after the treatment. Detect the change of blood sugar using blood -sugar detection. ELISA was used to study the effect of Moxibustion on the AGEs in the penis and serum levels of rats.Results: 1.Comparing with model group, the blood sugar level of moxibustion group is low to some extent. The difference has statistical significance (P<0.01) . 2.Comparing with Normal group, the level of AGEs in the penis and serum of Diabetes Mellitus group is obviously high (P<0.01) . Comparing with model group, the AGEs level in the penis and serum of moxibustion group is low. The difference has statistical significance (P<0.01) .Conclusion: The results show that moxibustion decreases the level of blood sugar, and the level of AGEs in the penis and serum. Moxibustion has some effects in promoting the Erectile function of Diabetic rats.
