This review explores the application of graphene-based materials (GBMs) in biomedicine, focusing on graphene oxide (GO) and its interactions with peptides proteins. GO, a versatile nanomaterial oxygen-containing functional groups, holds significant potential for biomedical applications but faces challenges related to toxicity environmental impact. Peptides proteins can be functionalized GO surfaces through various methods, including non-covalent such as π–π stacking, electrostatic forces, hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals well covalent bonding reactions involving amide bond formation, esterification, thiol chemistry, click chemistry. These approaches enhance GO’s functionality several key areas: biosensing sensitive biomarker detection, theranostic imaging that integrates diagnostics therapy real-time treatment monitoring, targeted cancer where deliver drugs directly tumor sites while being tracked by techniques like MRI photoacoustic imaging. Additionally, GO-based scaffolds are advancing tissue engineering aiding tissues’ bone, muscle, nerve regeneration, their antimicrobial properties improving infection-resistant medical devices. Despite potential, addressing stability scalability is essential fully harness benefits GBMs healthcare.

Bacterial infection has become one of the leading causes death worldwide, particularly in low-income countries. Despite fact that antibiotics have provided successful management bacterial infections, long-term overconsumption and abuse contributed to emergence multidrug resistant bacteria. To address this challenge, nanomaterials with intrinsic antibacterial properties or serve as drug carriers been substantially developed an alternative fight against infection. Systematically deeply understanding mechanisms is extremely important for designing new therapeutics. Recently, nanomaterials-mediated targeted bacteria depletion either a passive active manner most promising approaches treatment by increasing local concentration around cells enhance inhibitory activity reduce side effects.

Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in human history with extremely poor prognosis. Although many traditional therapeutic modalities-such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy-have proved to be successful inhibiting growth tumor cells, their side effects may vastly limited actual benefits patient acceptance. In this context, a nanomedicine approach for cancer therapy using functionalized nanomaterial has been gaining ground recently. Considering ability carry various anticancer drugs act photothermal agent, use carbon-based nanomaterials advanced rapidly. Within those nanomaterials, reduced graphene oxide (rGO), family 2D carbon nanomaterial, emerged good candidate due its excellent conversion near infrared range, large specific surface area drug loading, well functional groups functionalization molecules such photosensitizers, siRNA, ligands, etc. By unique design, multifunctional nanosystems could designed based on rGO, which are endowed promising temperature/pH-dependent drug/gene delivery abilities multimodal therapy. This further augmented by additional advantages offered high biocompatibility, targeted delivery, enhanced effects. Herewith, we first provide an overview most effective reducing agents rGO synthesis via chemical reduction. was followed in-depth review application different treatment modalities and/or photodynamic therapy, gene chemotherapy/phototherapy, photothermal/immunotherapy.

Pathogenic bacteria cause the deaths of millions people every year. With development antibiotics, hundreds and thousands people's lives have been saved. Nevertheless, can develop resistance to rendering them insensitive antibiotics over time. Peptides containing specific amino acids be used as antibacterial agents; however, they easily degraded by proteases in vivo. To address these issues, branched peptide dendrimers are now being considered good agents due their high efficacy, protease degradation, low cytotoxicity. The ease with which synthesized modified makes accessible for use various biological nonbiological fields. That is, hold a promising future prolonged efficacy without bacterial development. Their vivo stability multivalence allow effectively target multi-drug-resistant strains prevent biofilm formation. Thus, it is interesting an overview applications research, including possibility employing machine learning approaches design AMPs dendrimers.
