Objectives : This study investigated the antioxidant effect of electro-acupuncture at $KI_6$ on rats treated with 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride(AAPH). Methods : After electro-acupuncture at $KI_6$ on 48 rats that were given AAPH(50mg/kg) every day, the author observed several changes in weight, liver index, albumin, total bilirubin, LDL-cholesterol, LDH, glucose, GOT, GPT, SOD and catalase activity, and glutathione, NO, and MDA concentrations. Results : 1. In the $KI_6-EA$ group, the albumin level increased and LDL-cholesterol decreased compared with the control and holder groups. 2. In the $KI_6-EA$ group, SOD activity increased compared with the holder group, glutathione concentration increased compared with the control and holder groups, and catalase activity increased compared with the control group. 3. In the $KI_6-EA$ group, NO concentration decreased compared with the control and holder groups. Conclusions : This case shows that electro-acupuncture at $KI_6$ plays a significant antioxidant role by elevating defenses against cell toxicity caused by oxidative stress and suppressing oxidative injury.
