Brain insulin resistance impairs hippocampal synaptic plasticity and memory by increasing GluA1 palmitoylation through FoxO3a
Metabolic diseases have been associated with cognitive impairment. Here, the authors show that brain insulin resistance induced by high-fat diet leads to increased palmitoylation of AMPA receptors and thus changes in hippocampal plasticity, learning and memory.
