Endoproteolysis of presenilin 1 and accumulation of processed derivatives in vivo

TL;DR: It is concluded that PS1 is subject to endoproteolytic processing in vivo, and in brains of transgenic mice expressing human PS1, approximately 17 kDa and approximately 27 kDa PS1 derivatives accumulate to saturable levels, and at approximately 1:1 stoichiometry, independent of transgene-derived mRNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer disease: concepts and conundrums

TL;DR: Key observations and experimental data on insulin signalling in the brain are reviewed and the concept of 'brain insulin resistance' is defined and the growing, although still inconsistent, literature concerning cognitive impairment and neuropathological abnormalities in T2DM, obesity and insulin resistance is reviewed.
