  1. Dulaglutide Improves Gliosis and Suppresses Apoptosis/Autophagy Through the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Signaling Pathway in Vascular Dementia Rats

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Neurochemical research 2022-12-26 Drug development

    Dulaglutide is a new type of hypoglycemic agent that agonizes glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1RA).

  2. Previous studies have implicated common and rare genetic variants as risk factors for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD).

  3. Our study highlights that upregulation of the lncRNA MEG3 improves cognitive impairment, alleviates neuronal damage, and inhibits activation of astrocytes in hippocampus tissues in AD through inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

  4. Stimulation of ACE2/ANG(1-7)/Mas Axis by Diminazene Ameliorates Alzheimer's Disease in the D-Galactose-Ovariectomized Rat Model: Role of PI3K/Akt Pathway

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Molecular neurobiology 2018-03-07 Biomarkers

    Overactivation of angiotensin-converting enzyme/angiotensin 2/angiotensin receptor-1 (ACE/Ang2/AT1) axis provokes amyloid-β-induced apoptosis and neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  5. Well-established studies have shown an elevated level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that induces oxidative stress in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) patient's brain and an animal model of AD.

  6. Erythropoietin protects PC12 cells from beta-amyloid(25-35)-induced apoptosis via PI3K/Akt signaling pathway

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuropharmacology 2009-03-04 Drug development

    Although the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not fully understood, multiple lines of evidence suggests the importance of amyloid-beta (Abeta) in the initiation/progression of the disease.
