新近临床结果表明,按摩的疗效与免疫系统相关,这可作为标准药物疗法的辅助治疗。发表在6月5日《Scientific Reprots》的文章中,作者报导了在小鼠中按摩免疫调节作用的机制。 用手或毛刷对C57/BL6小鼠抚摸8天并与不按摩的小鼠进行对照研究表明:与毛刷按摩或不做按摩相比,用手按摩的小鼠胸腺和脾脏T细胞数量增加显著(P <0.05,P <0.01)。按摩引起的T细胞增加与淋巴器官的降低去甲肾上腺素刺激及对抗氢化可的松的免疫抑制相关。

Massage-like stroking boosts the immune system in mice
Recent clinical evidence suggests that the therapeutic effect of massage involves the immune system and that this can be exploited as an adjunct therapy together with standard drug-based approaches. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms behind these effects exploring the immunomodulatory function of stroking as a surrogate of massage-like therapy in mice. C57/BL6 mice were stroked daily for 8 days either with a soft brush or directly with a gloved hand and then analysed for differences in their immune repertoire compared to control non-stroked mice. Our results show that hand- but not brush-stroked mice demonstrated a significant increase in thymic and splenic T cell number (p < 0.05; p < 0.01). These effects were not associated with significant changes in CD4/CD8 lineage commitment or activation profile. The boosting effects on T cell repertoire of massage-like therapy were associated with a decreased noradrenergic innervation of lymphoid organs and counteracted the immunosuppressive effect of hydrocortisone in vivo. Together our results in mice support the hypothesis that massage-like therapies might be of therapeutic value in the treatment of immunodeficiencies and related disorders and suggest a reduction of the inhibitory noradrenergic tone in lymphoid organs as one of the possible explanations for their immunomodulatory function.
