Brain insulin resistance is associated with an increased Aβ production in AD although the molecular mechanisms underlying this link are still largely unknown. Biliverdin reductase-A (BVR-A) is a unique Ser/Thr/Tyr kinase regulating insulin signalling. Studies from our group, demonstrated that BVR-A impairment is among the earliest events favoring brain insulin resistance development. Furthermore, reported a negative association between BVR-A protein levels/activation and BACE1 protein levels in the parietal cortex of aged beagles (an animal model of AD), thus suggesting a possible interaction. Therefore, we aimed to demonstrate that BVR-A impairment is a molecular bridge linking brain insulin resistance with increased Aβ production. Age-associated changes of BVR-A, BACE1, insulin signalling cascade and APP processing were evaluated in the parietal cortex of beagles and experiments to confirm the hypothesized mechanism(s) have been performed in vitro in HEK293APPswe cells. Our results show that BVR-A impairment occurs early with age and is associated with brain insulin resistance. Furthermore, we demonstrate that BVR-A impairment favors CK1-mediated Ser phosphorylation of BACE1 (known to mediate BACE1 recycling to plasma membrane) along with increased Aβ production in the parietal cortex, with age. Overall, our results suggest that the impairment of BVR-A is an early molecular event contributing to both (I) the onset of brain insulin resistance and (II) the increased Aβ production observed in AD. We, therefore, suggest that by targeting BVR-A activity it could be possible to delay the onset of brain insulin resistance along with an improved regulation of the APP processing.
