An ultrathin graphitic carbon nitride nanosheet: a novel inhibitor of metal-induced amyloid aggregation associated with Alzheimer's disease

Abstract

Herein we report that a g-C3N4 nanosheet can act as a nanochelator to inhibit Cu2+ induced Aβ aggregation and disassemble the preformed Aβ–Cu2+ aggregates.
