Abstract

Highlights: [•] Leptin and ghrelin protect hippocampal neurons from Aβ oligomers-induced toxicity. [•] Leptin and ghrelin prevent oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. [•] Leptin and ghrelin revert GSK3β activation induced by Aβ oligomers. [•] Neuroprotection by leptin and ghrelin occurs in a receptor-mediated manner. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
