Abstract
Diabetic mellitus is a worldwide endocrine and metabolic disorder with insulin insensitivity or deficiency or both whose prevalence could rise up to 592 million by 2035. Consistent hyperglycemia leads to one of the most common comorbidities like Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). DPN is underlined with unpleasant sensory experience, such as tingling and burning sensation, hyperalgesia, numbness, etc. Globally, 50-60% of the diabetic population is suffering from such symptoms as microvascular complications. Consistent hyperglycemia during DM causes activation/inhibition of various pathways playing important role in the homeostasis of neurons and other cells. Disruption of these pathways results into apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunctions, causing neuropathy. Among these, pathways like Polyol and PARP are some of the most intensively studied ones whereas those like Wnt pathway, Mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), mTOR pathway are comparatively newly discovered. Understanding of these pathways and their role in pathophysiology of DN underlines a few molecules of immense therapeutic value. The inhibitors or activators of these molecules can be of therapeutic importance in the management of DPN. This review, hence, focuses on these underlying molecular mechanisms intending to provide therapeutically effective molecular targets for the treatment of DPN.

Metab Brain Dis 2021; 36:2079-2088. [PMID: 34269982 DOI: 10.1007/s11011-021-00787-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) improves obesity-induced cognitive dysfunction, but its mechanism is not fully clarified. The aim of the study was to reveal whether IGF-1 treated cognitive dysfunction by improving tau pathology and neuronal pyroptosis in high-fat diet mice. During in vitro experiment, C57BL/6J mice were fed with high-fat diet, and were treated with PEG-IGF-1, IGF-1 receptor blocker AXL1717, HO-1 blocker Znpp IX or their combinations. Cognitive function was evaluated using Morris water maze. Expression of Nrf2, HO-1, p-tau, NLRP3, caspase-1 and IL-1β in hippocampus was determined using western blotting. Pyroptosis rate in hippocampus was measured using flow cytometry. During in vivo experiment, HN-h cells were treated with palmitic acid, pyroptosis blocker nonecrosulfonamide or their combinations. The expression of the proteins and rate of pyroptosis were also measured using western blotting and flow cytometry. During in vitro experiment, high-fat diet mice showed cognitive dysfunction, significant hyperphosphorylation of tau protein and neuronal pyroptosis in hippocampus compared with the sham mice. After exogenous IGF-1 treatment, these abnormalities were reversed and Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway was activated. Inhibition of the signaling pathway using AXL1717 or Znpp IX re-deteriorated cognitive function, tau pathology and neuronal pyroptosis in hippocampus. During in vivo experiment, inhibition of pyroptosis using nonecrosulfonamide improved tau pathology in palmitic acid-treated HN-h cells. Exogenous IGF-1 improved tau pathology induced by high-fat diet through inhibition of neuronal pyroptosis and activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Ischemic strokes are highly prevalent in the elderly population and are a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The risk of ischemic stroke increases in advanced age, corresponding with a noted decrease in circulating insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 is a known neuroprotectant involved in embryonic development, neurogenesis, neurotransmission, cognition, and lifespan. Clinically, several studies have shown that reduced levels of IGF-1 correlate with increased mortality rate, poorer functional outcomes, and increased morbidities following an ischemic stroke. In animal models of ischemia, administering exogenous IGF-1 using various routes of administration (intranasal, intravenous, subcutaneous, or topical) at various time points prior to and following insult attenuates neurological damage and accompanying behavioral changes caused by ischemia. However, there are some contrasting findings in select clinical and preclinical studies. This review discusses the role of IGF-1 as a determinant factor of ischemic stroke outcomes, both within the clinical settings and preclinical animal models. Furthermore, the review provides insight on the role of IGF-1 in mechanisms and cellular processes that contribute to stroke damage.
