Influence of Graphene-Based Nanocomposites in Neurogenesis and Neuritogenesis: A Brief Summary

Graphene is a prospective candidate for various biomedical applications, including drug transporters, bioimaging agents, and scaffolds for tissue engineering, thanks to its superior electrical conductivity and biocompatibility. The clinical issue of nerve regeneration and rehabilitation still has a major influence on people's lives. Nanomaterials based on graphene have been exploited extensively to promote nerve cell differentiation and proliferation. Their high electrical conductivity and mechanical robustness make them appropriate for nerve tissue engineering. Combining graphene with other substances, such as biopolymers, may transmit biochemical signals that support brain cell division, proliferation, and regeneration. The utilization of nanocomposites based on graphene in neurogenesis and neuritogenesis is the primary emphasis of this review. Here are some examples of the many synthetic strategies used. For neuritogenesis and neurogenesis, it has also been explored to combine electrical stimulation with graphene-based materials.
