Being a biocompatible nanomaterial with outstanding physical, chemical, optical, and biological properties, graphene-based materials were successfully employed in creating the perfect scaffold for a range of organs, starting from the skin through to the brain. Investigations on 2D and 3D tissue culture scaffolds incorporated with graphene or its derivatives have revealed the capability of this carbon material in mimicking in vivo environment. The porous morphology, great surface area, selective permeability of gases, excellent mechanical strength, good thermal and electrical conductivity, good optical properties, and biodegradability enable graphene materials to be the best component for scaffold engineering. Along with the apt microenvironment, this material was found to be efficient in differentiating stem cells into specific cell types. Furthermore, the scope of graphene nanomaterials in liver tissue engineering as a promising biomaterial is also discussed. This review critically looks into the unlimited potential of graphene-based nanomaterials in future tissue engineering and regenerative therapy.Keywords: graphene, 3D, tissue engineering, scaffold, microenvironment, stem cells, liver, regenerative therapyGeetha Bai RMuthoosamy KManickam SHilal-Alnaqbi ADove Medical PressarticleGraphene3Dtissue engineeringscaffoldmicroenvironmentstem cellsliverregenerative therapyMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 5753-5783 (2019) |
