Where have the organizers gone? – The growth control system as a foundation of physiology
2017, Progress in Biophysics and Molecular BiologyCitation Excerpt :Intrinsic stem cells are part of the organizers and growth control system (De Robertis, 2009; Lahti et al., 2011; Chappaz et al., 2010; Morsut et al., 2010). There is a hierarchy in the degree of cell differentiation in the growth control system (Shang, 2001). The primary human germ cell tumors show a midline and paraxial distribution pattern extending from the sacrum and coccyx to the pineal gland (Azizkhan and Caty, 1996; Gonzalez-Crussi, 1982).

2012, Journal of EthnopharmacologyCitation Excerpt :Networks of collagen fibres have also been proposed as a possible mechanical transduction and signaling system for acupuncture-related effects (Langevin et al., 2007). Another hypothesis is that the meridians are the trace marks of embryological development or the evolutional remains of the central nervous system but this is too hypothetical to be tested with scientific experiments (Shang, 2001; Lee, 2002). Further efforts or novel ideas in acupuncture-related studies intended to establish theoretical principles will continue to inspire innovative therapeutic methods for the treatment of various difficult medical conditions (Lee, 2002).
