摘要

With the acceleration of population aging,the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and Alzheimer's disease(AD)is progressively increasing due to the age-relatedness of these two diseases.The association between T2DM and AD-like dementia is receiving much attention,and T2DM is reported to be a significant risk factor for AD.The aims of this review were to reveal the brain changes caused by T2DM as well as to explore the roles of hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in the development of AD.
