ABSTRACT:
Use of a peptide or pharmaceutical composition comprising Leu-Ala-Phe-Val-Leu-Arg-Lys-amide having at least one D amino acid for the reduction of beta-amyloid protein, modulating APP processing, modulating activity of APP secretases, treatment of beta-amyloid protein diseases and the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
