5-HAYED peptide can protect AD brain by scavenging the redundant iron ions and the catalyzed radicals

Alzheimer9s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by memory and cognitive decline. It is incurable currently and places a great burden on the caregivers of patients. Iron is rich in the brain of AD suffers. It catalyzes radicals which impairs neurons. Therefore, reducing the redundant brain iron is pressing to ease AD. To scavenge the excessive brain iron catalyzed radical, thus protect the brain and decrease the incidence of AD. We synthesized a soluble iron-pro 5-HAYED peptide. By injecting 5-HAYED to the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the AD mouse, we observed that the 5-HAYED is able to decrease the brain iron and radical level, which behaving neurons protection, and can ameliorate the cognition status for AD mouse. Further, 5-HAYED can decreased the AD incidence and can reverse the AD associated anemia and inflammation without hurt kidney and liver.
