Low-dose metformin requires brain Rap1 for its antidiabetic action Metformin lowers blood glucose by inhibiting Rap1 in ventromedial hypothalamic neurons that regulate glucose balance.

Metformin, the first line drug for Type 2 diabetes, has been used for 60 years without a clearcut mechanism of action. It turns out it's not just reducing glucose output from the liver. Metformin also works via the brain www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Back home after a great week in Toronto for #AAIC25 @alzassociation.bsky.social - first time presenting this new work funded by Race Against Dementia with more exciting data to follow! 💙

AAIC 2025 Highlights Reel | Alzheimer's Association YouTube video by Alzheimer's Association

Thank you to the more than 11,700 researchers, clinicians and dementia professionals who joined us in Toronto & online for #AAIC25!

Together, you advanced science and clinical practice and have given hope to all those living with Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.
