The acupoint position and α-synuclein expression.

(a) AG: acupuncture at the acupoint of Yanglinquan (GB34); SG: sham acupuncture at the control point. (b) The expression of a-syn (top) and the optical density of α-syn (bottom) in the mouse SNpc in each group (7th day after last MPTP injection). In all panels, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared with Saline group. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 compared with MPTP group. n = 8 per experimental group.
