Deletion of Irs2 reduces amyloid deposition and rescues behavioural deficits in APP transgenic mice

As impaired insulin signalling (IIS) is a risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease we crossed mice (Tg2576) over-expressing human amyloid precursor protein (APP), with insulin receptor substrate 2 null (Irs2(−/−)) mice which develop insulin resistance. The resulting Tg2576/Irs2(−/−) animals had increased...
