“While this normally contributes to tissue repair, it can also lead to the release of highly immunogenic products that can trigger and/or amplify autoimmune pathogenic loops.” - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3684162/
“NETs disarm pathogens with antimicrobial proteins such as neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G and histones that have a high affinity for DNA. NETs provide for a high local concentration of antimicrobial components and bind, disarm, and kill microbes extracellularly independent of phagocytic uptake.” - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4041364/
“Here, we report a facile approach to multifunctional iron oxide nanoparticle-attached graphene nanosheets (graphene@Fe3O4) which show the integrated properties of strong supraparamagnetism, electrical conductivity, highly chemical reactivity, good solubility, and excellent processability.” - https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/am100673g

Bio-Corona Formation: Shelter from the Storm, “When a nanomaterial is introduced into a living system it interacts with biological molecules (proteins, lipids, etc.) leading to the formation of a so-called bio-corona on the surface…Indeed, in vitro studies have shown that the adsorption of serum proteins reduces the cytotoxicity of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as well as GO, and based on a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches, it was suggested that the bio-corona mitigates the cytotoxicity of GO by limiting its penetration into the cell membrane.” - https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2017.00673/full

“Carbon nanotubes as potential adjuvants: Many vaccines use adjuvants, substances that enhance the immunogenic potential of the immunization strategy, without inducing an immune response per se. As described above, CNT stimulate the innate immune system, therefore having inherent adjuvant properties.” - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3846653/

“The design and development of various nanocomposites of GO and reduced GO by using nanomaterials including magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a powerful technique for the drug release applications. In a study reported by Gupta and co-workers, a magnetic nanocomposite material composed of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and reduced GO was prepared for the efficient release of doxorubicin. The obtained experimental data displayed that the best drug release was achieved at pH 4.3 which is the pH value of microenvironment of cancer cells.” - https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/materials-science/reduced-graphene-oxide
