mTOR and neuronal cell cycle reentry: how impaired brain insulin signaling promotes Alzheimer's disease
Open accessAbstract
A major obstacle to presymptomatic diagnosis and disease‐modifying therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is inadequate understanding of molecular mechanisms of AD pathogenesis. For example, impaired brain insulin signaling is an AD hallmark, but whether and how it might contribute to the synaptic dysfunction and neuron death that underlie memory and cognitive impairment has been mysterious. Neuron death in AD is often caused by cell cycle reentry (CCR) mediated by amyloid‐β oligomers (AβOs) and tau, the precursors of plaques and tangles. We now report that CCR results from AβO‐induced activation of the protein kinase complex, mTORC1, at the plasma membrane and mTORC1‐dependent tau phosphorylation, and that CCR can be prevented by insulin‐stimulated activation of lysosomal mTORC1. AβOs were also shown previously to reduce neuronal insulin signaling. Our data therefore indicate that the decreased insulin signaling provoked by AβOs unleashes their toxic potential to cause neuronal CCR, and by extension, neuron death.

Hyperactivation of the S6K proteins correlates with increased Tau pathology and dysregulation of the insulin/IGF/mTOR signaling pathway, both in individuals with DS-AD and in idiopathic AD.
“Hyperactivation of the S6K proteins correlates with increased Tau pathology and dysregulation of the insulin/IGF/mTOR signaling pathway, both in individuals with DS‐AD 55 and in idiopathic AD. 56”
From Disruption of hippocampal upstream regulators of mTOR and insulin pathways in Down syndrome with Alzheimer's disease neuropathology: Preliminary observations (2026) · cites this paper as [56]
For the idiopathic AD portion to which citation 56 is attached, Results §4.5 links mTOR activity to tau phosphorylation, probably through S6K, and Results §4.6 reports tau phosphorylation in human AD tissue. The paper does not report a correlation in those individuals between S6K hyperactivation, increased tau pathology, and dysregulation of the insulin/IGF/mTOR pathway. The DS-AD portion has a separate citation and is not assessed against this source. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
