Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an increased risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD); however, the relationship between the 2 conditions is controversial. High‐fat diet (HFD) causes cognitive impairment with/without Aβ accumulation in middle‐aged or aged transgenic (Tg) and knock‐in (KI) AD mouse models, except for metabolic disorders, which commonly occur in all mice types. Alternatively, whether HFD in early life has an impact on nutrient metabolism and neurological phenotypes in young AD mouse models is not known. In the present study, we examined the effects of HFD on young APPKINL‐G‐F/NL‐G‐F mice, one of the novel KI‐AD mouse models.
