Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common disease associated with cognitive dysfunction, which is closely associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in clinical manifestations, pathological changes and prevention. Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) can lower blood glucose levels by stimulating insulin secretion. Besides, it can affect cognitive function through the neuroprotective effect of DPP-4 substrates, such as glucose-dependent insulin peptide and glucagon-like peptide-1, the proteolytic effect on amyloid-β and the protective effect on neuronal structure. This review discusses the relationship between cognitive impairment in T2DM and in AD, summarizes the effect of DPP-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) on improving cognitive impairment in these two diseases based on the current studies. Given the lack of clinical randomized trials that evaluate the effect of DPP-4i on AD, this review is expected to provide preclinical evidence for DPP-4i as a potential therapy for the treatment and prevention of AD.
