Amyloid beta (Aβ) aggregation is generally believed as the crucial and primary cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, current Aβ‐targeted therapeutic strategies show limited disease‐modifying efficacy due to the irreversible damages in the late stage of AD, thus the treatment should be given before the formation of deposition and target primary Aβ species rather than advanced plaques. Herein, inspired by heat shock protein, a self‐assembly nanochaperone based on mixed‐shell polymeric micelle (MSPM) is devised to act as a novel strategy for AD prevention. With unique surface hydrophobic domains, this nanochaperone can selectively capture Aβ peptides, effectively suppress Aβ aggregation, and remarkably reduce Aβ‐mediated cytotoxicity. Moreover, the formed nanochaperone‐Aβ complex after Aβ adsorption can be easily phagocytosed by microglia and thereby facilitates Aβ clearance. As a result, the nanochaperone reduces Aβ burden, attenuates Aβ‐induced inflammation, and eventually rescues the cognitive deficits of APP/PS1 transgenic AD mice. These results indicate that this biomimetic nanochaperone can successfully prevent the onset of AD symptoms and serve as a promising candidate for prophylactic treatment of AD.
