Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of intranasal insulin on cognition in memory-impaired older adults: modulation by APOE genotype.
Mark A. Reger,Mark A. Reger,G.S. Watson,G.S. Watson,William H. Frey,William H. Frey,Laura D. Baker,Laura D. Baker,Brenna Cholerton,Brenna Cholerton,M.L. Keeling,M.L.

TL;DR: It is suggested that intranasal insulin administration may have therapeutic benefit without the risk of peripheral hypoglycemia and further evidence for apolipoprotein E (APOE) related differences in insulin metabolism is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of β-hydroxybutyrate on cognition in memory-impaired adults
Mark A. Reger,Samuel T. Henderson,Cathy Hale,Brenna Cholerton,Brenna Cholerton,Laura D. Baker,Laura D. Baker,G.S. Watson,G.S. Watson,Karen Hyde,Darla Chapman,Suzanne Craft,Suzanne Craft +12 more
TL;DR: Elevation of plasma ketone body levels through an oral dose of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) may improve cognitive functioning in older adults with memory disorders and be associated with greater improvement in paragraph recall with MCT treatment relative to placebo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential modulation of plasma β-amyloid by insulin in patients with Alzheimer disease
J. Jacob Kulstad,Pattie S. Green,D. G. Cook,G.S. Watson,Mark A. Reger,Laura D. Baker,S. R. Plymate,Sanjay Asthana,Kristoffer Rhoads,Pankaj Mehta,Suzanne Craft +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) have reduced insulin clearance and insulin-provoked plasma amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) elevation, which may contribute to AD risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intranasal insulin treatment response in Alzheimer's disease influenced by glucose-stimulated insulin secretion
Amy Claxton,Charles F. Wilkinson,Laura D. Baker,G.S. Watson,Laura M. Bonner,Emily H. Trittschuh,Maureen Callaghan,Stephen R. Plymate,Suzanne Craft +8 more
TL;DR: It is anticipated that this research should lead to the development of novel class of disease-modifying agents to treat AD by developing novel heterocyclic small molecules possessing dual ChE (AChE/BuChE) inhibition and identifying metal chelating and antioxidant pharmacophores in the design of small molecule therapeutics to treatAD.
