Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is Associated with Transcriptome Alterations in Cortical Neurones and Associated Neurovascular Unit Cells in the Ageing Brain

ABSTRACT: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), characterised by peripheral insulin resistance, is a risk factor for dementia. In addition to its contribution to small and large vessel disease, T2D may directly damage cells of the brain neurovascular unit. In this study, we investigated the transcriptomic changes in cortical neurones, and associated astrocytes and endothelial cells of the neurovascular unit, in the ageing brain
