In this study, we intended to explore the possible mechanism of improving cognitive function and protecting the neuron effect by electroacupuncture. Method: We applied senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMP8) mice as AD animal model, used Morris water maze, HE staining, 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing of gut microbiota and ELISA to demonstrate our hypothesis. Results: electroacupuncture improved the learning and memory abilities in SAMP8 mice (P&lt;0.05) and could protect the frontal lobe cortex and hippocampus of SAMP8 mice; electroacupuncture significantly decreased the expression of IL-1\u03b2 (P&lt;0.01), IL-6 (P&lt;0.01) and TNF-\u03b1 (P&lt;0.01 in hippocampus, P&lt;0.05 in serum) in serum and hippocampus; electroacupuncture balanced the quantity and composition of gut microbiome, especially of the relative abundance in <jats:italic>Delta-proteobacteria<\/jats:italic> (P&lt;0.05) and <jats:italic>Epsilon-proteobacteria<\/jats:italic> (P&lt;0.05).
