Potential of graphene-based nanomaterials for cardiac tissue engineering

“…[15][16][17] Nowadays, a variety of electroconductive biomaterials have been utilized in the field of CTE. They comprise carbonbased nanomaterials, 18 gold-based nanomaterials, 19 conductive polymers, 20 piezoelectric polymeric materials, 21 and other electroconductive biomaterials including melanin, 22 silicon nanowires, 23 silver nanoparticles, 24 and selenium nanoparticles. 25 Among commonly used biomaterials for CTE, graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs), owing to their desirable specifications such as high mechanical strength, electroconductivity, biocompatibility, high specific surface area, ease of biological/chemical functionalization, 26 low cost, and scalable fabrication, have been widely investigated.…”

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes for combination therapy: a biodistribution and efficacy pilot study

“…Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have emerged in recent years as promising materials for applications in different fields of nanomedicine ranging from tissue engineering, 1 nerve reconstruction 2 and drug delivery. 3 The latter was the first application to be developed and many examples can be found in the literature showing CNT potentialities, both in vitro and in vivo.…”
