Photoactive g-C3N4 Nanosheets for Light-Induced Suppression of Alzheimer's β-Amyloid Aggregation and Toxicity

Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4) has a suppressive capability toward Alzheimer's Aβ aggregation under light‐illumination. Photoinduced electrons of g‐C3N4 generate reactive oxygen resulting in photooxidation of amyloid peptides that blocks Aβ aggregation. Fe doping of g‐C3N4 frameworks results in enhanced optical properties and even stronger inhibition of Aβ aggregation.
