Acupuncture treatment is based on acupoint stimulation; however, the biological basis is not understood.

We found that kininogen expression was significantly upregulated in the stimulated and the nonstimulated adjacent acupoints along the same meridian. The enhanced kininogen expression was meridian dependent
