    The hepatic clearance of amyloid beta-peptide (1-40) [Abeta(1-40)] from plasma, which is largely mediated by low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP-1), is suggested to play a role in preventing Abeta(1-40) accumulation in the brain. Epidemiological investigations suggest a high incidence of cerebral Abeta deposition in insulin-resistant type II diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of insulin on the hepatic clearance of Abeta(1-40). LRP-1 expression on the hepatic plasma membrane was increased in a time-dependent manner by portal infusion of insulin and was 2.2-fold greater than that in nontreated controls after a 10-min infusion, whereas the expression in whole lysate was not affected by insulin treatment. The apparent hepatic uptake of [(125)I]Abeta(1-40) was also induced by insulin in a time-dependent manner. The increase in [(125)I]Abeta(1-40) uptake by insulin was concentration-dependent (EC(50) = 230 pM) and was completely abolished by receptor-associated protein (2 muM), an LRP-1 inhibitor. In conclusion, plasma insulin facilitates LRP-1 translocation to the hepatic plasma membrane from the intracellular pool, resulting in significant enhancement of hepatic Abeta(1-40) uptake from the circulating blood. The presently proposed mechanism would explain the epidemiological results demonstrating that type II diabetes mellitus is a risk factor of Alzheimer's disease.
