Electroacupuncture Protects against Articular Cartilage Erosion by Inhibiting Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases in a Rat Model of Osteoarthritis

Abstract

EA appears to prevent the degeneration of articular cartilage, at least partly through regulation of MMP-13 and inhibition of MAPKs in the cartilage of rats with ACLT-induced OA.
