Abstract
CONTEXT There is a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and impaired cognitive function in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). OBJECTIVE To critically and systematically review the literature on the association between vitamin D status and cognitive performance in people with type 2 diabetes. DATA SOURCES This review was conducted according to PRISMA recommendations. MEDLINE, SCOPUS, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched using the terms "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2", "Cognitive Function", and "Vitamin D". DATA EXTRACTION Eight observational and 1 randomized study were included, containing data of 14 648 adult and elderly individuals (19-74 y). All extracted data were compiled, compared, and critically analyzed. DATA ANALYSIS There is no strong evidence that lower serum concentrations of vitamin D and vitamin D-binding protein are associated with worsening cognitive function in individuals with T2DM. Vitamin D supplementation (12 wk) improved the scores of some executive functioning tests, although there was no difference between low doses (5000 IU/wk) and high doses (50 000 IU/wk). CONCLUSIONS There is no high-quality evidence demonstrating an association between vitamin D status and cognitive function, or clinical benefits on cognition from vitamin D supplementation in individuals with T2DM. Future studies are needed. Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO registration no. CRD42021261520.

Alleviation of behavioral deficits, amyloid-β deposition, and mitochondrial structure damage associated with mitophagy upregulation in AD animal models via AAV9-IGF-1 treatment.

Abstract
By safeguarding the neurological system, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) may have a role in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The mechanism and signaling route, however, remain unclear. This research aimed to investigate the impact of IGF-1 on AD as well as its possible mechanism and signaling route. In this work, intracerebroventricular AAV9-IGF-1 was delivered to APP/PS1 transgenic mice. Following therapy, the Morris water maze and passive avoidance tests were administered to evaluate spatial learning and memory. The elevated plus maze, the open field test, and the sucrose preference test were used to evaluate anxious-depressive-like behavior. Thioflavin S staining was employed to visualize Aβ deposition, and ELISA was used to determine the quantities of soluble Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42. Transmission electron microscopy was used to view the mitochondrial structure and mitophagy vesicles. The protein expression levels of PINK1, Parkin, and LC3-II/LC3-I were finally determined by Western blotting. AAV9-IGF-1 therapy enhanced spatial learning and memory, relieved anxious-depressive-like behavior impairments, lowered amyloid-β deposition, and decreased levels of soluble Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42. In addition, AAV9-IGF-1 therapy restored mitochondrial integrity and increased the number of mitophagy in transgenic mice expressing APP/PS1. These results indicate that IGF-1 is protective for APP/PS1 mice. The mechanism of the favorable benefits mediated by IGF-1 was connected to an increase in mitophagy, which might give a novel therapy target in the future.

[PMID: 38198904 DOI: 10.1016/j.psyneuen.2023.106946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and cognition has been studied in healthy individuals, but not extensively with regards to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this retrospective observational study, we investigated relationships of IGF-1 with memory and executive function across people with normoglycemia, prediabetes, and T2DM. METHODS Data from the Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) study were used. Episodic memory and executive function were assessed using the Brief Test of Adult Cognition by Telephone approximately 21.42 ± 12.10 months prior to measuring IGF-1 levels from a fasting blood sample. Normoglycemia was identified as individuals without a physician diagnosis of diabetes and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤5.6%. Prediabetes was identified as those without a physician diagnosis of diabetes and HbA1c between 5.7%-6.4%. T2DM was identified as anyone with a physician diagnosis of diabetes, or HbA1c ≥6.5%, or anyone using an oral hypoglycemic medication. The associations were assessed using linear regressions controlling for age, sex, education, body mass index, C-reactive protein, HbA1c or homeostatic model of insulin resistance, MIDUS wave, exercise, smoking status, sleep quality, alcohol intake, oral hypoglycemic use, and insulin use. RESULTS The study included 1400 participants, which consisted of 583 normoglycemic (48.4% female, mean age 51.0 ± 12.2 years), 512 prediabetes (58.4% female, mean age 57.3 ± 11.8 years), and 305 T2DM participants (53.8% female, mean age 57.6 ± 11.5 years). Peripheral IGF-1 concentrations were lower (F2,1397 = 28.29, p < 0.001) in people with prediabetes or T2DM, vs. normoglycemia. Participants with prediabetes or T2DM had lower episodic memory (F2,1397 = 9.21, p < 0.001) and executive function (F2,1397 = 20.29, p < 0.001) composite z-scores than people with normoglycemia. Higher IGF-1 concentrations were associated with better executive performance in individuals with prediabetes (β = 0.115 [0.028, 0.202], p = 0.010), but not in individuals with normoglycemia or T2DM. An interaction between IGF-1 and sex in predicting executive function was observed in the prediabetes group (β = -0.344, p = 0.042), where the relationship was weaker in females (β = 0.106 [-0.012, 0.224], p = 0.077) than males (β = 0.251 [0.123, 0.380], p < 0.001). No associations were seen between IGF-1 and memory. CONCLUSION The results suggest that peripheral IGF-1 concentrations may be related to executive function, and that the relationship may be sex-specific and dependent on diabetes status.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is a chronic, progressive skeletal muscle disease characterised by low muscle strength and quantity or quality, leading to low physical performance. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are more at risk of sarcopenia than euglycemic individuals. Because of several shared pathways between the two diseases, sarcopenia is also a risk factor for developing T2DM in older patients. Various biomarkers are under investigation as potentially valuable for sarcopenia diagnosis and treatment monitoring. Biomarkers related to sarcopenia can be divided into markers evaluating musculoskeletal status (biomarkers specific to muscle mass, markers of the neuromuscular junction, or myokines) and markers assuming causal factors (adipokines, hormones, and inflammatory markers). This paper reviews the current knowledge about how diabetes and T2DM complications affect potential sarcopenia biomarker concentrations. This review includes markers recently proposed by the expert group of the European Society for the Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis and Musculoskeletal Diseases (ESCEO) as those that may currently be useful in phase II and III clinical trials of sarcopenia: myostatin (MSTN); follistatin (FST); irisin; brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF); procollagen type III N-terminal peptide (PIIINP; P3NP); sarcopenia index (serum creatinine to serum cystatin C ratio); adiponectin; leptin; insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1); dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS); C-reactive protein (CRP); interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). A better understanding of factors influencing these biomarkers' levels, including diabetes and diabetic complications, may lead to designing future studies and implementing results in clinical practice.

Abstract
People living with HIV are affected by the chronic consequences of neurocognitive impairment (NCI) despite antiretroviral therapies that suppress viral replication, improve health and extend life. Furthermore, viral suppression does not eliminate the virus, and remaining infected cells may continue to produce viral proteins that trigger neurodegeneration. Comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus are likely to contribute substantially to CNS injury in people living with HIV, and some components of antiretroviral therapy exert undesirable side effects on the nervous system. No treatment for HIV-associated NCI has been approved by the European Medicines Agency or the US Food and Drug Administration. Historically, roadblocks to developing effective treatments have included a limited understanding of the pathophysiology of HIV-associated NCI and heterogeneity in its clinical manifestations. This heterogeneity might reflect multiple underlying causes that differ among individuals, rather than a single unifying neuropathogenesis. Despite these complexities, accelerating discoveries in HIV neuropathogenesis are yielding potentially druggable targets, including excessive immune activation, metabolic alterations culminating in mitochondrial dysfunction, dysregulation of metal ion homeostasis and lysosomal function, and microbiome alterations. In addition to drug treatments, we also highlight the importance of non-pharmacological interventions. By revisiting mechanisms implicated in NCI and potential interventions addressing these mechanisms, we hope to supply reasons for optimism in people living with HIV affected by NCI and their care providers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) deficiency on cognitive decline have been consistently reported in animal studies, but the relationship between IGF-1 and human brain health remains controversial. Our study aimed to investigate the associations of serum IGF-1 concentrations with some brain-related disorders and neuroimaging features. METHODS This prospective study included 369,711 participants (55.8 ± 8.1 years) from the UK biobank who had serum IGF-1 measured and were free from brain-related disorders of interest - dementia, stroke, and Parkinson's disease (PD) - at enrollment (2006-2010). Restricted cubic splines and Cox proportional hazards models were used to detect the associations between IGF-1 concentrations and brain-related diseases. In addition, general linear regressions were applied to explore the relationship between IGF-1 concentrations and neuroimaging features (volumes of white matter, grey matter, and hippocampus and white matter hyperintensity) among a sub-sample of 36,458 participants with magnetic resonance imaging data collected since 2014. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 12.6 years, a total of 4,857 dementia, 6,240 stroke, and 2,116 PD cases were documented. The dose-response analyses yielded U-shaped relationships between IGF-1 concentrations and risks of dementia and stroke (P < 0.001 for non-linearity), with the lowest risks at 18 nmol/L and 26 nmol/L, respectively. A positive linear relationship was observed between IGF-1 concentrations and risk of PD (P = 0.163 for non-linearity). Moreover, neuroimaging analyses showed that higher IGF-1 concentrations were associated with greater volumes of white matter (β = 2.98 × 10-4, P < 0.001) and hippocampus (β = 3.37 × 10-4, P = 0.002) and smaller white matter hyperintensity (β = -3.12 × 10-3, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Apart from the diverse associations with neuroimaging features, both low and high IGF-1 concentrations are associated with increased risks of dementia and stroke and higher IGF-1 concentrations are linked to a higher risk of PD, highlighting the potential of IGF-1 as a biomarker for risk stratification of brain health.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders are accompanied by neuronal degeneration and glial dysfunction, resulting in cognitive, psychomotor, and behavioral impairment. Multiple factors including genetic, environmental, metabolic, and oxidant overload contribute to disease progression. Recent evidences suggest that metabolic syndrome is linked to various neurodegenerative diseases. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is known to be accompanied by symptoms such as hyperglycemia, abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypertension. Despite advances in knowledge about the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, effective treatments to combat neurodegenerative disorders caused by MetS have not been developed to date. Insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1) deficiency has been associated with MetS-related pathologies both in-vivo and in-vitro. IGF-1 is essential for embryonic and adult neurogenesis, neuronal plasticity, neurotropism, angiogenesis, metabolic function, and protein clearance in the brain. Here, we review the evidence for the potential therapeutic effects of IGF-1 in the neurodegeneration related to metabolic syndrome. We elucidate how IGF-1 may be involved in molecular signaling defects that occurs in MetS-related neurodegenerative disorders and highlight the importance of IGF-1 as a potential therapeutic target in MetS-related neurological diseases.

Abstract
Objective This study was designed to explore the effect of glimepiride combined with recombinant human insulin injection on serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) and oxidative stress levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods A total of 217 patients with type 2 diabetes who were treated in our hospital from November 2018 to March 2020 were selected and divided into control group and treatment group. The control group was treated with glimepiride (n = 107). The study group was given glimepiride and recombinant human insulin injection) (n = 107). The levels of blood glucose, blood lipids, IGF-1, VEGF, TRACP-5b, and oxidative stress in the two groups were measured, respectively. We summarize the main results as follows. Insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2h postprandial blood glucose (2hBG), serum glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), serum malondialdehyde (MDA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), VEGF, and TRACP-5b levels were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the degree of reduction in the study group was greater than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The levels of insulin (INS), insulin beta cell function index (HOMA-beta), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and IGF-1 were significantly higher than those before treatment. Further, the study group demonstrated better results than the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Glimepiride combined with recombinant human insulin injection can improve insulin sensitivity, reduce insulin resistance, significantly reduce glucose and lipids in patients, reduce the occurrence of oxidative stress, promote the secretion of oxidative resistance enzymes, lower the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), reduced the formation of new blood vessels, and inhibit the growth and metastasis of cancer cells. Additionally, we found out that glimepiride combined with recombinant human insulin injection had a good prognosis for patients; it significantly reduced the bone resorption marker TRACP-5b and prevented the occurrence of complications such as osteoporosis. The combined use of the two is more effective than glimepiride alone. In conclusion, glimepiride combined with recombinant human insulin injection has higher application value in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
People with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at increased risk of mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Systemic inflammation has been proposed as a common risk factor. This study aimed to summarize the clinical data pertaining to peripheral blood inflammatory markers. We identified original peer-reviewed articles reporting blood inflammatory marker concentrations in groups of people with a T2DM diagnosis who have cognitive impairment (CI; including mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease, vascular cognitive impairment) vs. normal cognition (NC). Between-group standardized mean differences (SMD) were summarized in random effects meta-analyses. From 2108 records, data were combined quantitatively from 40 studies. Concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6; NCI/NNC = 934/3154, SMD 0.74 95% confidence interval [0.07, 1.42], Z5 = 2.15, p = 0.03; I2 = 98.08%), C-reactive protein (CRP; NCI/NNC = 1610/4363, SMD 0.80 [0.50, 1.11], Z14 = 5.25, p < 0.01; I2 = 94.59%), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1; NCI/NNC = 104/1063, SMD 1.64 95% confidence interval [0.21, 3.07], Z2 = 2.25, p = 0.02; I2 = 95.19%), and advanced glycation end products (AGEs; NCI/NNC = 227/317, SMD 0.84 95% confidence interval [0.41, 1.27], Z2 = 3.82, p < 0.01; I2 = 81.07%) were higher among CI groups compared to NC. Brain derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) concentrations were significantly lower in CI compared to NC (NCI/NNC = 848/2063, SMD -0.67 95% confidence interval [-0.99, -0.35], Z3 = -4.09, p < 0.01; I2 = 89.20%). Cognitive impairment among people with T2DM was associated with systemic inflammation and lower BDNF concentrations. These inflammatory characteristics support an increased inflammatory-vascular interaction associated with cognitive impairment in T2DM. PROSPERO (CRD42020188625).

Association of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations with risk of dementia among individuals with type 2 diabetes: A cohort study in the UK Biobank. PLoS Med 2022; 19:e1003906. [PMID: 35025861 PMCID: PMC8797194 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pmed.1003906] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2021] [Revised: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several epidemiological studies have suggested that vitamin D status is associated with risk of dementia in general populations. However, due to the synergistic effect between diabetic pathology and neuroinflammation, and the prothrombotic profile in patients with diabetes, whether vitamin D is associated with risk of dementia among patients with diabetes is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the associations of circulating vitamin D levels with risks of all-cause dementia, Alzheimer disease (AD), and vascular dementia (VD) among adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS AND FINDINGS This study included 13,486 individuals (≥60 years) with T2D and free of dementia at recruitment (2006-2010) from the UK Biobank study. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations were measured using the chemiluminescent immunoassay method at recruitment. Serum 25(OH)D ≥ 75 nmol/L was considered sufficient, according to the Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guidelines. Incidence of all-cause dementia, AD, and VD cases was ascertained using electronic health records (EHRs). Each participant's person-years at risk were calculated from the date of recruitment to the date that dementia was reported, date of death, date of loss to follow-up, or 28 February 2018, whichever occurred first. Among the 13,486 individuals with T2D (mean age, 64.6 years; men, 64.3%), 38.3% had vitamin D ≥ 50 nmol/L and only 9.1% had vitamin D ≥ 75 nmol/L. During a mean follow-up of 8.5 years, we observed 283 cases of all-cause dementia, including 101 AD and 97 VD cases. Restricted cubic spline analysis demonstrated a nonlinear relationship between serum 25(OH)D and risk of all-cause dementia (Pnonlinearity < 0.001) and VD (Pnonlinearity = 0.007), and the nonlinear association reached borderline significance for AD (Pnonlinearity = 0.06), with a threshold at around a serum 25(OH)D value of 50 nmol/L for all the outcomes. Higher serum levels of 25(OH)D were significantly associated with a lower risk of all-cause dementia, AD, and VD. The multivariate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for participants who had serum 25(OH)D ≥ 50 nmol/L, compared with those who were severely deficient (25[OH]D < 25 nmol/L), were 0.41 (0.29-0.60) for all-cause dementia (Ptrend < 0.001), 0.50 (0.27-0.92) for AD (Ptrend = 0.06), and 0.41 (0.22-0.77) for VD (Ptrend = 0.01). The main limitation of the current analysis was the potential underreporting of dementia cases, as the cases were identified via EHRs. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we observed that higher concentrations of serum 25(OH)D were significantly associated with a lower risk of all-cause dementia, AD, and VD among individuals with T2D. Our findings, if confirmed by replication, may have relevance for dementia prevention strategies that target improving or maintaining serum vitamin D concentrations among patients with T2D.

High-dose Vitamin D Supplementation and Improvement in Cognitive Abilities, Insomnia, and Daytime Sleepiness in Adolescent Girls. Basic Clin Neurosci 2021; 12:339-348. [PMID: 34917293 PMCID: PMC8666927 DOI: 10.32598/bcn.2021.1910.1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Revised: 07/10/2019] [Accepted: 09/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Vitamin D may affect the modulation of signaling pathways in the central nervous system. We aimed to evaluate the effect of high-dose vitamin D supplementation on neuropsychological functions in female adolescents. Methods: We studied the effects of 9 weeks of vitamin D supplementation (50000 IU vitamin D3 [cholecalciferol]/week) on cognitive abilities and sleep disorders in 940 adolescent girls. Results: Oral vitamin D supplementation improved cognitive abilities, including memory, inhibitory control, selective attention, decision making, planning, sustained attention, and cognitive flexibility in healthy adolescent girls (P<0.001). The prevalence of subjects with insomnia after intervention fell from 15.0% to 11.3%. Similar results were also found for the prevalence of sleepiness (15.6% reduced to 14.7%), or cases with both insomnia and sleepiness (8.0% reduced to 6.1%; P<0.05). Conclusion: High dose of vitamin D can improve cognitive abilities and alleviate insomnia and daytime sleepiness in adolescent girls. Further investigations are required on different population groups (age and gender) to determine the sustainability of these effects. The value of vitamin D therapy in other neurological disorders would also be of research interest.

Abstract
miRNAs play an important role in neurodegenerative diseases. Many miRNA-target gene interactions (MTI) have been experimentally confirmed and associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). miRNAs may also be contained within extracellular vesicles (EVs), mediators of cellular communication and a potential source of circulating biomarkers in body fluids. Therefore, EV-associated miRNAs (EV-miRNAs) in peripheral blood could support earlier and less invasive AD diagnostics. We aimed to prioritize EV-related miRNA with AD-related genes and to identify the most promising candidates for novel AD biomarkers. A list of unique EV-miRNAs from the literature was combined with a known set of AD risk genes and enriched for MTI. Additionally, miRNAs associated with the AD phenotype were combined with all known target genes in MTI enrichment. Expression in different sample types was analyzed to identify AD-associated miRNAs with the greatest potential as AD circulating biomarkers. Four common MTI were observed between EV-miRNAs and AD-associated miRNAs: hsa-miR-375–APH1B, hsa-miR-107–CDC42SE2, hsa-miR-375–CELF2, and hsa-miR-107–IL6. An additional 61 out of 169 unique miRNAs (36.1%) and seven out of 84 unique MTI (8.3%), observed in the body fluids of AD patients, were proposed as very strong AD-circulating biomarker candidates. Our analysis summarized several potential novel AD biomarkers, but further studies are needed to evaluate their potential in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alterations in levels of peripheral insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been reported in several studies, and results are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between peripheral and cerebrospinal fluid IGF-1 levels and AD or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). METHODS A systematic search in PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted and 18 studies were included. RESULTS Results of random-effects meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference between AD patients and healthy control (17 studies; standard mean difference [SMD], -0.01; 95%CI, -0.35 to 0.32) and between MCI patients and healthy control (6 studies; SMD, -0.20; 95%CI, -0.52 to 0.13) in peripheral IGF-1 levels. Meta-regression analyses identified age difference might explain the heterogeneity (p = 0.017). However, peripheral IGF-1 levels were significantly decreased in AD subjects (9 studies; SMD, -0.44; 95%CI, -0.81 to -0.07) and MCI subjects exhibited a decreasing trend (4 studies; SMD, -0.31; 95%CI, -0.72 to 0.11) in studies with sample size≥80. Cerebrospinal fluid IGF-1 levels also significantly decreased in AD subjects (3 studies; SMD, -2.40; 95%CI, -4.36 to -0.43). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that decreased peripheral and cerebrospinal fluid IGF-1 levels might be a potential marker for the cognitive decline and progression of AD.

Sesamin alleviates diabetes-associated behavioral deficits in rats: The role of inflammatory and neurotrophic factors. Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 92:107356.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation and loss of neurotrophic support have key roles in the pathophysiology of diabetes-associated behavioral deficits (DABD). Sesamin (Ses), a major lignan of sesame seed and its oil, shows anti-hyperglycemic, anti-oxidative, and neuroprotective effects. The present study was designed to assess the potential protective effects of Ses against DABD and investigate the roles of inflammatory markers and neurotrophic factors in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. After confirmation of diabetes, Ses (30 mg/kg/day; P.O.) or insulin (6 IU/rat/day; S.C.) was administered to rats for eight consecutive weeks. During the eighth-week period of the study, behavioral functions of the animals were evaluated by employing standard behavioral paradigms. Moreover, inflammation status, neurotrophic factors, and histological changes were assessed in the cerebral cortex and hippocampal regions of the rats. The results of behavioral tests showed that STZ-induced diabetes increased anxiety-/depression-like behaviors, decreased locomotor/exploratory activities, and impaired passive avoidance learning and memory. These DABD were accompanied by neuroinflammation, lack of neurotrophic support, and neuronal loss in both cerebral cortex and hippocampus of the rats. Intriguingly, chronic treatment with Ses improved all the above-mentioned diabetes-related behavioral, biochemical, and histological deficits, and in some cases, it was even more effective than insulin therapy. In conclusion, the results suggest that Ses was capable of improving DABD, which might be ascribed, at least partly, to the reduction of blood glucose level, inhibition of neuroinflammation, and potentiation of neurotrophic factors.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is an emerging public health issue with high prevalence among older adults (>60 years old). Taking into consideration the great increase in the elderly population (approximately 7.5 billion worldwide), we can easily understand the impact of this chronic disease and its complications. On the other hand, vitamin D deficiency (VDD) is also a serious public health problem with significant impacts and multiple health effects. The correlation between DM and VDD has been suggested and established from many observational studies, reviews, and meta-analyses. The literature in PubMed and Google Scholar was searched for relevant articles published up to October 2020. The keywords used were the following: vitamin D deficiency, elderly, and diabetes mellitus type 2. Among the 556 articles retrieved, 90 full texts were eligible and only 34 studies (12 retrospective studies, two prospective cohorts, three meta-analyses, seven cross-sectional studies, nine randomized control trials (RCTs), and one observational study) met the inclusion criteria for the review. The author's name, year of publication, country, type of study, and the number of patients were reported. According to this review there is adequate evidence to support the correlation between VDD and T2DM in the elderly. The results from the RCTs are more conflicting and more studies are needed to confirm the impact of vitamin D deficiency (VD) supplementation on metabolic and lipid profile, oxidative stress, and the complications of T2DM in older patients. VDD is clearly related with severe retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, and poor cognition performance, while there is consensus about the beneficial effect of VD on peripheral artery disease, foot ulceration prevention, and wound healing. On the other hand, there is controversy about the effect of VD supplementation on cardiovascular adverse events, endothelial function, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Finally, the association of VDD with fragility fractures and depression in the elderly with T2DM is currently insufficiently studied and remains controversial.
