Expression of Ghrelin and PYY in colon and hypothalamus of rats(\(\bar{x} \pm \mathrm{SE}\), n = 6). A: Expression of Ghrelin and PYY in the colon, (1)a diagram depicting protein expression bands, (2)(3)protein expression levels of Ghrelin and PYY, (4)(5)mRNA expression levels of Ghrelin and PYY; B: Expression of Ghrelin and PYY in the hypothalamus, (1)a diagram depicting protein expression bands, (2)(3)protein expression levels of Ghrelin and PYY, (4)mRNA expression level of PYY. Con is the control group, T2DM is the model group, EA is the intervention group, and EA + LY294002 is the intervention + PI3K inhibitor group. Compared to the Con group, **P<0.01, *P<0.05; compared to the T2DM group,##P<0.01, #P<0.05; compared to the EA group, △△P<0.01, △P<0.05
