Abstract
The incidence of allergic diseases has been increasing annually, severely affecting the quality of life of patients. With the growing recognition of traditional medicine, acupuncture, an ancient Chinese therapeutic method, has gradually gained attention for its potential in immune modulation. Studies have shown that macrophages play a crucial role in the development of allergic diseases, and acupuncture may influence allergic reactions by modulating the function of macrophages. This article aims to systematically evaluate the regulatory effects of acupuncture on macrophages in allergic diseases and the corresponding mechanisms. It analyzes existing research findings and explores the clinical application prospects of acupuncture in this context. By understanding how acupuncture affects the activation, secretion, and role of macrophages in immune responses, we hope to provide new insights and directions for the treatment of allergic diseases.
