Peptide in blood against Alzheimer's disease?

A peptide in the human blood, called HAEE, may serve as a biomarker of Alzheimer's disease, since healthy people have double the amount in the blood as Alzheimer's sufferers. In experiments with mice it has been found that HAEE can reduce the number of plaques in the brain, which are associated with Alzheimer's disease.
