Early changes in astrocyte energy metabolism are associated with late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), but the underlying mechanism remains elusive. A previous study suggested an association between a synonymous SNP (rs1012672, C→T) in LRP6 gene and LOAD; and that is indeed correlated with diminished LRP6 gene expression in the frontal cortex region. The authors show that LRP6 is a unique Wnt coreceptor on astrocytes, serving as a bimodal switch that modulates their metabolic landscapes. The Wnt‐LRP6 mediated mTOR‐AKT axis is essential for sustaining glucose metabolism. In its absence, Wnt switches to activate the LRP6‐independent Ca2+‐PKC‐NFAT axis, resulting in a transcription network that favors glutamine and branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) catabolism over glucose metabolism. Exhaustion of these raw materials essential for neurotransmitter biosynthesis and recycling results in compromised synaptic, cognitive, and memory functions; priming for early changes that are frequently found in LOAD. The authors also highlight that intranasal supplementation of glutamine and BCAAs is effective in preserving neuronal integrity and brain functions, proposing a nutrient‐based method for delaying cognitive and memory decline when LRP6 cell surface levels and functions are suboptimal. Astrocytes are the major brain metabolic workhorses and altered energy metabolism is associated with late‐onset Alzheimer's disease. Differential Wnt downstream signaling modulates the metabolic landscape in these cells. Intranasal supplementation of enhanced demand on glutamine and branched‐chain amino acids may help to preserve neuronal integrity and brain functions; suggesting an alternative nutrient‐based method for delaying cognitive and memory decline.
