Abstract

Ultra-weak light emission (biophoton) from cells and organs of all types of living organisms has been studied since the early 1920s. The optical communication channel hypothesis in an animal’s body, in conjunction with this cellular light emission and acupuncture meridians, was proposed. In this review we consider a concrete realization of this hypothesis with the recently found primo vascular system in the brain. The primo vascular system is an anatomical structure corresponding to the acupuncture meridians. It is a new circulatory system that is distributed throughout the whole body of an animal, including a human. Its main function is regeneration of damaged or aging tissues. Recently, techniques to observe the primo vascular system in the brains of rabbits and rats have been developed. The primo vessel in the fourth ventricle of the brain was floating in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and it ran along the central canal of the spinal cord of a rat or rabbit. It was visualized by using fluorescent nanoparticles that were injected into the CSF of the lateral ventricle and were preferentially absorbed by the primo vessel. Possible applications of the primo vascular system combined with biophotons for the treatment of various brain diseases, like Alzheimer’s disease are envisioned.
