INTRODUCTION
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterised by accumulation of senile plaques, neurofibrilatory tangles(NFT) and neurodegeneration.
Various studies have demonstrated that abnormalities such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep disorder, psychological stress increase the risk for Alzheimer’s disease .
Diabetes associated with insulin resistance and reduced insulin level mainly affects attention, learning memory, cognition and psychomotor efficiency.
Disturbance in down-regulation of insulin signalling leads to memory impairment through inhibition of serine phosphorylation of IRS-1, activation of GSK-3 β and decrease in level of Insulin Degrading Enzyme (IDE) which results in amyloid beta aggregation and formation of NFT.
Also the decrease in level of insulin or insulin resistance generate oxidative stress as well as reduce the central blood flow thus it marks over neurodegeneration.

HISTOLOGICAL CHANGES IN HIPPOCAMPUS TISSUE
Diabetes associated with insulin resistance and reduce insulin level mainly affects psychomotor activity, attention, learning memory, cognition, mental flexibility in brain. [Bakris G.L 2009].
According to Garwood J et al., disturbance in insulin signalling leads to amyloid beta aggregation and neurofibrillatory tangles formation in brain which progressed into AD and memory impairment.
In DM the enhancing GSK-3β activity by inhibition of IRS-1 phosphorylation [Bedse G. et al.,2015] and insulin resistance leads to the reduced IDE expression which is associated with the significant risk factor for AD due to the decreasing metabolism of amyloid beta [David G.Cook et al.,2003].
Edaravone substantially reduced the amyloid beta deposition, oxidative stress, tau phosphorylation, neurodegeneration in mice [Jiooss et al., 2015].
DISCUSSION
According to clinical trial reports DHA seen to be slower the progression of dementia, thus it can provide as nutritive supplement for AD treatment [Gerg M Cole et al., 2013].
Giorgio Poli et al., demonstrated that elevation of the level of epoxygenated fatty acid by inhibition of sEH may have the utility in treatment of neurodegenerative pathological conditions including prion and AD.
The present study also revealed that the decreased expression of GSK-3β and increased expression of IDE by Edaravone and sEHI improved the cognitive impairment in DM rats.
Reduced levels of cytokines such as IL-1β & IL-6 and results of antioxidant parameters reveals the protective roles of the drugs against neuroinflammation oxidative stress associated with AD.
Histopathological report also supports the activity of Edaravone and sEHI against neuronal loss showing marked improvement of morphological alteration.
DISCUSSION
CONCLUSION From the above results it has been suggested that Edaravone, sEHI and combination of sEHI and DHA improves the morphological and functional alterations associated with cognitive and memory impairment by the improvement of insulin signalling. Edaravone 10mg/kg dose shows more effective in cognitive and memory impairment than low dose (Edaravone 3mg/kg).
sEHI is more effective than Edaravone in diabetic cognitive and memory impairment.
The combination of sEHI with DHA shows more effect than the individual drugs, Edaravone and sEHI, in diabetic cognitive and memory impairment. So DHA can be a promising nutritive supplement for the treatment of AD.
But, the combination of DHA with sEHI elevated the blood glucose level even sEHI alone can reduce the blood glucose level. Hence, sEHI can be useful for the treatment of DM related AD rather than combination.
While managing diabetic patients, it is necessary to provide treatment for reduce the risk factors of AD as they are more prone to it.
