Leptin
Leptin resistance may contribute to Alzheimers. (Warren, 2011) Higher lean muscle mass may be associated with greater leptin sensitivity. Mild AD patients present with lower lean muscle mass compared to controls and show leptin resistance. (Burns, 2010) Leptin reduces AD symptoms in mice (Greco, 2009)(Fewlass, 2004) and rabbits (Marwarha, 2009)
