EA treatment increases the metabolic activity of 5XFAD mice as determined by microPET scans. a Representative microPET images in specific brain regions (frontal cortex, cortex, and hypothalamus) at 60 min after intravenous injection of 18F-FDG on the day after the last EA treatment. The right panel shows the reference for the specific brain region. b Quantitative analysis of ROI-based 18F-FDG uptake (SUV) in the frontal cortex, cortex, hypothalamus, and hippocampus of each group (n = 3–4/group). Data are presented as means ± SEM (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01)
