Breast cancer (BC) with aggressive metastasis is a serious ongoing public health problem among women. Graphene oxide (GO) has an inhibitory effect on the migration rate and metastasis of BC cells, but its various aspects have not yet been explored. This paper aims to research into the effect of GO nanoparticles (GO-Np) on the migratory behavior of MDA-MB-231 as a metastatic human BC cell line.

Regenerative medicine by applying tissue engineering and cell transplantation has provided a new door in wound healing. This study tracked healing effect of human Wharton's jelly stem cells (WJSCs) labeled with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) seeded onto poly vinyl alcohol/chitosan/carbon nanotubes (PVA/CS/CNT) in burn wounds by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Prussian Blue staining. .

Stroke is a well-known neurological disorder that carries significant morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. Cerebral Ischemic Stroke (CIS), the most common subtype of stroke, occurs when thrombosis or emboli form elsewhere in the body and travel to the brain, leading to reduced blood perfusion. Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury (CIRI) is a common complication of CIS and arises when blood flow is rapidly restored to the brain tissue after a period of ischemia.
