Anti-amyloid compounds protect from silica nanoparticle-induced neurotoxicity in the nematode C. elegans

Identifying nanomaterial-bio-interactions are imperative due to the broad introduction of nanoparticle (NP) applications and their distribution. Here, we demonstrate that silica NPs effect widespread protein aggregation in the soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans ranging from induction of amyloid in...
