The present invention relates to an improved antibody specifically binding to amyloid-β oligomers (AβOs). Specifically, the present invention relates to an improved form of the antibody W20. Compared with the antibody W20, the improved form of the antibody W20 has a significantly improved affinity to AβOs, and can more significantly inhibit the aggregation of Aβ and the AβOs-induced toxicity of nerve cells, more effectively improve the cognition and memory functions of an Alzheimer's disease model mouse, and reduce pathological changes in the brain of the mouse. The improved form of the antibody can specifically bind to oligomers of an amyloid-β, α-synuclein, mHTT and SOD 1, can inhibit the aggregation and cytotoxicity of various amyloids, and has a better potential for treating various amyloid diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, than the antibody W20. The improved form of the antibody can specifically bind to a highly toxic amyloid protein oligomer Aβo*3F, and has a better AD diagnosis value. The amino acid sequence of the antibody W20 is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1.
