: Nanobiotechnology has huge potential in the field of regenerative medicine. One of the main drivers has been the development of novel nanomaterials. One developing class of materials is graphene and its derivatives recognized for their novel properties present on the nanoscale. In particular, graphene and graphene-based nanomaterials have been shown to have excellent electrical, mechanical, optical and thermal properties. Due to these unique properties coupled with the ability to tune their biocompatibility, these nanomaterials have been propelled for various applications. Most recently, these two-dimensional nanomaterials have been widely recognized for their utility in biomedical research. In this review, a brief overview of the strategies to synthesize graphene and its derivatives are discussed. Next, the biocompatibility profile of these nanomaterials as a precursor to their biomedical application is reviewed. Finally, recent applications of graphene-based nanomaterials in various biomedical fields including tissue engineering, drug and gene delivery, biosensing and bioimaging as well as other biorelated studies are highlighted.

Primary Strategy

ABSTRACT An elaborate system of signaling molecules regulates the cellular and molecular events of periodontal healing, the primary strategy for which is functional periodontal compartment regeneration and replication of components of the natural cellular microenvironment by providing an artificial extracellular matrix and by delivering growth factors. A new, so-called gene delivery method works by converting cells into protein- producing factories, thereby bypassing the dilemma. Gene therapy can channel the cellular signals in a controlled and very systematic manner, to provide encoded proteins at every stage of tissue regeneration. The aim of this review is to highlight the applications of gene delivery and tissue engineering in periodontal regeneration. How to cite this article Lakhani N, Vandana KL.

Aerogels have been steadily developed since its first invention to become one of the most promising materials for various medical and non-medical applications. It has been prepared from organic and inorganic materials, in pure forms or composites. Cellulose-based aerogels are considered one of the promising materials in biomedical applications due to their availability, degradability, biocompatibility and non-cytotoxicity compared to conventional silica or metal-based aerogels. The unique properties of such materials permit their utilization in drug delivery, biosensing, tissue engineering scaffolds, and wound dressing. This review presents a summary of aerogel development as well as the properties and applications of aerogels. Herein, we further discuss the recent works pertaining to utilization of cellulose-based aerogels for antibacterial delivery.
