Interaction of graphene and WS 2 with neutrophils and mesenchymal stem cells: implications for peripheral nerve regeneration

with scalable techniques such as thermal decomposition and chemical vapor deposition. The materials were able to trigger the activation of a neutrophil human model promoting Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) production, particularly under basal conditions, although neutrophils were not able to degrade graphene. Of note is that pristine graphene acts as a repellent for the NET adhesion, a beneficial property for nerve conduit long-term applications. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been proposed as a promising strategy for nerve regeneration in combination with a conduit. Thus, the interaction of graphene with MSCs was also investigated, and reduced viability was observed only on specific graphene substrates. Overall, the results confirm the possibility of regulating the cell response by varying graphene properties and selecting the most suitable graphene forms.
