A human immunoreceptor recognises carbon nanotubes
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41565-023-01363-w CNTs have been used in a wide variety of fields as a next-generation nanomaterial with great potential. Some Multi-Walled CNTs (MWCNTs) have been reported to exhibit inflammatory toxicity similar to asbestos in animal studies. However, it was not known how MWCNTs are recognized in vivo and induce inflammation, nor whether similar inflammatory toxicity is […]
