Although AD and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are distinct pathologies, our results suggested that combination of HFD and STZ/I.P., a widely used T2DM modeling method, could successfully induce AD-like behavioral impairments and neuropathological injuries in mice; the mechanism might be involved with neuroinflammation and its associated dysfunction of IRS1/AKT/ERK signaling pathway. This evidence concerns the gene AKT1 and Alzheimer disease.
