Both ApoE and IGF-I are involved in the regulation of AD biomarkers: IGF-I is an important mediator in the clearance and regulation of Aβ in the brain, enhances survival of neurons exposed to Aβ and inhibits tau phosphorylation (Doré et al., 1997; Carro et al., 2002, 2006; Cheng et al., 2005; Engel et al., 2006; Moloney et al., 2010; Talbot et al., 2012). The gene discussed is IGF1; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
