Effect of Acupotomy Intervention on Fibrosis of Rectus Femoris in Rabbits with Knee Osteoarthritis by LIU Jing, ZENG Weiquan, LIN Qiaoxuan, LU Liming, GUO Zexing, LIU Hong, ZHANG Liangzhi, XIU Zhongbiao

“…RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of type Ⅰ collagen fibers (ColⅠ), vimentin (VIM), and Alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in the rectus femoris muscle to observe the effect of acupotomy on the knee osteoarthritis.Results1) Masson staining results showed that neat red-stained skeletal muscle fibers can be seen in the blank group; skeletal muscle fibers can be seen in the model group damaged and surrounded by a large amount of blue-stained collagen fibers; in the acupotomy group, skeletal muscle fibers can be seen neatly and a small amount of blue-stained collagen fibers wrap around. Compared with the blank group, the collagen volume fraction of rectus femoris muscle in the model group increased, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.01). …”
