Advances in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are related to the oligomerization of Amyloid β (Aβ) peptides. Therefore, alteration of the process can prevent AD. We investigated the Aβ42 dimerization under the effects of gold nanoparticles using temperature replica-exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations. The structural change of dimers in the presence and absence of the gold nanoparticle, Au55, was monitored over stable intervals. Physical insights into the oligomerization of Aβ were thus clarified. The computed metrics indicate that Au55 affects the progress of oligomerization. Specifically, the presence of the gold nanoparticle significantly modifies the structure of dimeric Aβ42. The β-content experienced a substantial decrease with the induction of Au55. The turn and coil-contents are also decreased under the effects of the gold nanoparticle. However, the α-content of the dimer exhibited a rigid increase. The influence of gold nanoparticles on the dimeric Aβ42 differs significantly from that of silver nanoparticles, which reduce β-content but increase coil-, turn-, and α-contents. The nature of inhibition will be discussed, in which the vdW interaction plays a driving force for the interaction between the Aβ42 dimer and the gold nanoparticle.
