Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major risk factor for cognitive impairment, vascular dementia and Alzheimers disease (AD). It accelerates brain aging, leads to insulin resistance, and insulin transport. Intranasal insulin (INI) administration improved cognition and memory in healthy young and older people, but also in patients with cognitive impairment or mild AD. The mechanism for INI-related improvement of memory (hippocampus function) remains unclear. In our research, resting state fMRI was used to study connectivity between hippocampus and default mode network (DMN) after the administration of intranasal insulin or placebo in type 2 DM and controls adults.
