“…Much of the biological behavior of nanoparticles, including aggregation, circulation time, clearance rate, and targeting, are greatly influenced by the protein corona [ 10 , 26 , 30 , 32 , 38 , 39 ], which may include proteins involved in blood coagulation, immune responses including complement activation, and lipid transport ( Table 1 , column 4). Protein coronas can concentrate proteins known as opsonins, such as complement proteins, coagulation proteins, and antibodies.…”
