Graphene is defined as a one-atom thick, planar monolayer of carbon atoms arranged into a 2D honeycomb crystal lattice. As with many novel materials, applications of graphene-based nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide (GO) and reduced GO, offer various technological opportunities since they exhibit exceptional electrical, thermal, optical and mechanical properties. The practical uses of graphene and its derivatives are extensive, including applications as diverse as nanoelectronics (e.g. transistors and sensors), anti-bacterial paper and many biomedical uses such as drug delivery, diagnosis and therapy. Recently, much attention has been paid to the potential of graphene-based materials as factors promoting the differentiation of stem cells into specific lineages including bones and neurons. In this study, we discuss the biocompatibility and biofunctionality of graphene-based nanobiomaterials and their potentials to innovatively enhance osteogenic and myogenic differentiation. |
