Título: | Serum insulin-like growth factor I regulates brain amyloid-β levels |
Autor: | Carro, Eva CSIC ORCID; Trejo, José L. CSIC ORCID; Gómez-Isla, T.; LeRoith, D.; Torres Alemán, Ignacio CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2002 | Editor: | Nature Publishing Group | Citación: | Nature Medicine 8: 1390- 1397 (2002) | Resumen: | Levels of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), a neuroprotective hormone, decrease in serum during aging, whereas amyloid-β (Aβ), which is involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease, accumulates in the brain. High brain Aβ levels are found at an early age in mutant mice with low circulating IGF-I, and Aβ burden can be reduced in aging rats by increasing serum IGF-I. This opposing relationship between serum IGF-I and brain Aβ levels reflects the ability of IGF-I to induce clearance of brain Aβ, probably by enhancing transport of Aβ carrier proteins such as albumin and transthyretin into the brain. This effect is antagonized by tumor necrosis factor-α, a proinflammatory cytokine putatively involved in dementia and aging. Because IGF-I treatment of mice overexpressing mutant amyloid markedly reduces their brain Aβ burden, we consider that circulating IGF-I is a physiological regulator of brain amyloid levels with therapeutic potential. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/60916 | DOI: | 10.1038/nm793 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1038/nm793 issn: 1078-8956 |
