Abstract Amyloid‐β (Aβ) pathway is positioned as the center for Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathophysiology. Viable drugs targeting Aβ are developed with promising outcomes. Meanwhile, most current approaches focused on inhibition of fibrillization or elimination plaques by immunotherapeutic strategies. Here, near‐infrared (NIR) photothermal polypyrrole nanoparticles coated peptide‐polyphenol to both inhibit and disaggregate fibrils synergistically. obviously inhibited after being treated nanoparticles. Besides fibrillization, amount gradually reduced time 38.0% when co‐incubated nanoparticles, indicating desired disaggregation capability against fibrils. In addition, faster more observed irradiation NIR light. cellular studies also verified that this nanoparticle able effectively reduce cytotoxicity toward PC12 cells through disaggregating toxic aggregates maintaining integral membrane structure. Hence, peptide‐polyphenol‐coated provides a new perspective fibrils, which can serve approach anti‐amyloidosis.
