Exendin-4 improves long-term potentiation and neuronal dendritic growth in vivo and in vitro obesity condition

Abstract Metabolic syndrome, which increases the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes has emerged as a significant issue worldwide. Recent studies have highlighted the relationship between metabolic imbalance and neurological pathologies such as memory loss. Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secreted f...
