Expression levels of TRPV1, p-PI3K, p-CREB and p-PKAIIα in the hypothalamus. (A) Representative immunofluorescence staining of TRPV1 (green) and p-PKAIIα (red) and (B) representative immunofluorescence staining of p-PI3K (red) and p-CREB (green) were performed in the hypothalamus of subjects in the WT-HFD, WT-HFD-ACE, WT-HFD-SHAM and KO-HFD groups. White arrowheads indicate immunopositive cells. TRPV1, transient receptor vanilloid member 1; WT, wild-type; ND, normal diet; HFD, high-fat diet; ACE, acupoint catgut embedding; KO, knockout; p, phosphorylated; PKAIIα, protein kinase AII α; CREB, cyclic AMP-response element binding protein.
