In the last two decades insulin signalling
and protection in brain has emerged as a novel field of
research.Although growing evidence supports the hypothesis
that dysfunction of neuronal glucose utilization and
metabolism and/or in insulin receptor signal transduction
cascade is involved in Alzheimers disease pathogenesis,the
role of insulin on oxidative stress- and diabetes-induced
