Size-Dependent Cell Uptake of Protein-Coated Graphene Oxide Nanosheets
Abstract
As an emerging applied material, graphene has shown tremendous application potential in many fields, including biomedicine. However, the biological behavior of these nanosheets, especially their interactions with cells, is not well understood. Here, we report our findings about the cell surface adhesion, subcellular locations, and size-dependent uptake mechanisms of protein-coated graphene oxide nanosheets (PCGO). Small nanosheets enter cells mainly through clathrin-mediated endocytosis, and the increase of graphene size enhances phagocytotic uptake of the nanosheets. These findings will facilitate biomedical and toxicologic studies of graphenes and provide fundamental understanding of interactions at the interface of two-dimensional nanostructures and biological systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
