Insulin-like growth factor 1 associated research in Alzheimer’s disease: an exploratory trends analysis

Research on IGF-1 and AD has continued to grow. Studies in this field have formed a tightly interconnected network, centered on the AD pathological core-IGF-1-related molecular mechanisms-downstream signaling pathways. The research focus is shifting from superficial correlations to investigations into underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. Depression and cognitive impairment are likely to become promising frontiers for future research.

Abstract

Research on IGF-1 and AD has continued to grow. Studies in this field have formed a tightly interconnected network, centered on the AD pathological core-IGF-1-related molecular mechanisms-downstream signaling pathways. The research focus is shifting from superficial correlations to investigations into underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. Depression and cognitive impairment are likely to become promising frontiers for future research.
