Schematic diagram of the mechanism by which ICA regulates GLUTs and brain insulin signaling to ameliorate memory impairment in AD.

Aβ: Amyloid-beta protein; AD: Alzheimer’s disease; AKT: protein kinase B; APP: amyloid precursor protein; GLUT: glucose transporter; GSK3β: glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta; G-tau: the attachment of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) on tau; ICA: icariin; IR: insulin receptor; IRS1: insulin receptor substrate 1; p: phosphorylation; PI3K: phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; PIP2: phosphatidylinositol (4,5) bisphosphate; PIP3: phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate; PTEN: phosphatase and tensin homolog.
