Acupuncture Ameliorates Alzheimer’s-Like Cognitive Impairment and Pathological Changes via Regulating the Intestinal Fungal Community in APP/PS1 Mice
Acupuncture may improve the cognitive impairment of APP/PS1 mice, reduce Aβ plaque burden in the brain, protect neurons, and mitigate intestinal fungi dysbiosis. The beneficial effects of acupuncture on Aβ deposition and cognitive function in APP/PS1 mice may be achieved by regulating the intestinal fungal community.
