43 19519303 The role of IGF-1 receptor and insulin receptor signaling for the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease: from model organisms to human disease.
44 19519303 Alternatively, the mechanism might be directly related to insulin and insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-1 signaling, leading to the proposal that AD is a "brain-type diabetes".
45 19519303 Furthermore, postmortem analyses of brains from patients with AD revealed a markedly downregulated expression of insulin receptor (IR), IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R), insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1 and IRS-2, and these changes progress with severity of neurodegeneration.

49 19519303 Interestingly, brain specific deletion of IRS-2 increases life span, suggesting that long term neuronal IGF-1R signaling might be harmful.
50 19519303 Taken together, the data from humans and different model organisms indicate a role of IR/IGF-1R signaling in Abeta metabolism, and clearance as well as longevity.
51 19519303 Since more studies are needed to elucidate the impact of insulin and/or IGF-1 treatment in AD, the time to propose these hormones as a potential treatment option for AD has not come yet.
