Abstract
We demonstrated the moxibution on CV5(Serk-Moon) and CV3(Chung-Guk), as we have known contraceptive acupuncture point and pregnancy acupuncture point in oriental medcine, effected on concentration of progesteron and estrogen. As the reports, $3{\beta}-hydroxysteroid\;dehydrogenase/{\Delta}5-{\Delta}4$ isomerase $(3{\beta}-HSD)$ is an enzyme that has catalytic oxidation and isomerase reaction on steroidhormon synthase including progesteron and estrogen. So we observated the concentration and mass of $(3{\beta}-HSD)$ by immuno-chemicalstain, western blot and Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay in rat ovary. In results, we detected that the mass of $(3{\beta}-HSD)$ decreased significantly in moxibution treated group on CV5($p{\leq}0.05$) in rat ovary and proposed that the moxibution of CV5 make possible to contraception because of blocking estrogen synthesis by $(3{\beta}-HSD)$ decrease. But we didn't know moxibution effects exactly whether is biochemical reaction or thermal reaction on acupuncture point.
