[摘要]因肥胖导致的健康问题已经成为当前全球公共卫生关注的焦点,因此,人们对各种减肥方案机制的研究备受关注。针灸作为中医特色疗法的代表,其用于减肥历史悠久,且效果明显,被公认为减肥的“绿色自然疗法”,但其确切的作用机制尚不明确。借助分子生物学技术的研究方法,人们对针灸减肥的探讨已从简单的疗效观察深入到机制研究中。本文就针灸治疗肥胖症的相关机制研究进展做一回顾,以便为今后肥胖症的治疗研究提供参考。

Abstract: Health problems caused by obesity have become the focus of global public health attention. Therefore, the research on the mechanism of various weight loss programs has attracted much attention. Acupuncture and moxibustion, one of the most effective therapy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has a long history and significant effectiveness on weight loss. It is recognized as a "green natural therapy" for weight loss, but its exact mechanism is still unclear. With the help of molecular biology technology research methods, People's research on acupuncture and moxibustion for weight loss has gone from simple observation of curative effect to mechanism research. We reviewed the studys of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of obesity, in order to provide reference for future obesity treatment research.

隨着社会经济的发展和科技的进步,人们的生活方式发生了巨大变化,营养过剩和少动的生活方式造成了肥胖人群数量剧增,因肥胖导致的健康问题已经成为全球公共卫生关注的焦点。2013年6月,美国医学会(AMA)正式将肥胖定义为疾病。肥胖症不仅是一种独立性疾病,也是很多慢性病的重要危险因素,如:糖尿病、高血压、冠心病、动脉粥样硬化、骨关节炎及癌症等[1]。进入21世纪以来,肥胖症像流行病一样蔓延,发病率逐年上升,严重危害当代人的生命健康,因此,对肥胖症的研究也备受关注。单纯性肥胖症主要是因为热量摄入大于消耗,以脂肪形式堆积体内形成,继而引起机体内分泌失调、代谢障碍[2]。药物治疗肥胖症着重控制饮食而限制热量摄入,如抑制机体食欲或抑制脂类物质吸收等,虽具有良好的减肥效果,但长期使用通常会造成患者消化、内分泌等多系统的不良反应。……
