TLDR
Treatment with geniposide decreased the Aβ1-42 level and improved the expression of insulin-degrading enzyme, which is the key degrading enzyme of Aβ peptide, which will help to understand the biochemical mechanisms of neuronal dysfunction and death in diabetes and to develop an efficient therapeutic strategy on Alzheimer's disease.Abstract:
Although cognitive dysfunction in diabetic patients has been explored extensively, diabetic complications of the central nervous system have not been studied. We have reported previously that geniposide has neurotrophic and neuroprotective activities with the activation of glucagons-like peptide 1 receptor, and regulates glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in vitro. But the role of geniposide on diabetic complications, especially on the neurodegenerative diseases, remains to be investigated. In this study, we investigated the effect of geniposide on the level of Aβ1-42 in the hippocampi of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and explored its possible mechanism. The results demonstrated that, accompanied with the improvement of insulin and blood glucose, treatment with geniposide decreased the Aβ1-42 level and improved the expression of insulin-degrading enzyme, which is the key degrading enzyme of Aβ peptide. The results of present study will help to understand the biochemical mechanisms of neuronal dysfunction and death in diabetes and to develop an efficient therapeutic strategy on Alzheimer's disease.read more

Geniposide Attenuates Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Memory Deficits in APP/PS1 Transgenic Mice
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that intragastric administration of geniposide significantly reduces oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in addition to improving learning and memory in APP/PS1 mice, indicating that genipOSide may attenuate memory deficits through the suppression of mitochondrial oxidative stress.

TL;DR: The results indicate that treatment with STZ induced significant reduction in peripheral and brain insulin levels in both wild-type and APP/PS1 transgenic mice, and is consistent with the notion that geniposide might play an important role on APP processing via enhancing insulin signaling and may convey a therapeutic benefit in AD.
