Acupuncture at the ST36 but not at the nonacupoint inhibited EW-induced increased TH phosphorylation rates in the PVN. Data are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean of the percentage of saline-treated control group. EtOH = ethanol; ST36 = acupuncture at the acupoint ST36; Tail = acupuncture at the non-acupoint located in the tail. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, compared with saline-treated control group; †p < 0.05, compared with EtOH-treated control group. EtOH = ethanol; EW = ethanol withdrawal; PVN = paraventricular nucleus; TH = tyrosine hydroxylase.
