AbstractNanoparticles (NPs), owing to their ultrasmall size, have been extensively researched for potential applications in biomedicine. During their delivery and functionalization within the organism, they frequently interact with cells. The resulting nano-bio interfaces between the NPs and cell membrane play an important role in dominating the physiological effects of NPs. Therefore, understanding how the properties of NPs affect their nano-bio interface interactions with the cell membrane is important. Compared to experimental and theoretical analyses, simulations can provide atomic-level accuracy regarding dynamic changes in structure, which can reveal the mechanisms of nano-bio interface interactions for feasible modulation. Thus, we reviewed the current advances in nano-bio interfaces from the perspective of simulations. This study will determine how the properties of NPs affect their interactions with cell membranes to provide insights for the design of NPs and summarize their corresponding biomedical applications.
