Default Is it insulin?

I know there have been many discussions here on the potential link between insulin resistance in Type II Diabetes and PD. I am revisiting the topic after seeing this very recent article abstract stating that there is growing evidence that AD is a metabolic disorder resulting in protein misfolding andneurodegeneration. Research in PD is showing a parallel.


Brain metabolic dysfunction at the core of Alzheimer's disease.

Parkinson's disease, insulin resistance and novel agents of neuroprotection.

It is interesting that two drugs used to treat Type II Diabetes have been in PD clinical trials.
