- To observe the effect of different moxibustion intervention on expression of interleukin-1 (IL-l) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in the synovial fluid of hind-knee joint in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) rabbits. Forty Japanese big-ear white rabbits (half male and half female) were randomized into normal control, RA model, direct-moxibustion, ginger-partitioned moxibustion and warm moxibustion groups (n= 8). RA model was established by injection of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (0. 5 mL/kg) into the articular cavities of the rabbits' bilateral hind-limbs. Moxibustion intervention was applied to unilateral "Shenshu" (BL 23) and "Zusanli"(ST 36) regions alternatively for 20 min from the 7th day on after modeling, once daily for 3 weeks except Sundays. The circumference of the hindlimb-knee joint was measured using a tape measure and the contents of IL-1 and TNF-alpha in the synovial fluid of articular cavities were detected by ELISA. In comparison with the normal control group, the circumference values of
