“…Since the exploring CNTs in 1990s and the progress of their application in nanomedicine, these compounds are significant through their properties including rich electronic and thermal factors, great mechanical strength, high chemical stability and extremely light weight (Bethune et al , 1993; Mollaamin et al , 2023a, 2023b, 2023c, 2023d, 2023e; Dai, 2002; Abi et al , 2013; Feng and Ji, 2011; Chen et al , 2011). CNTs can easily penetrate cells, delivering drugs directly to the cytoplasm or nucleus (Mollaamin et al , 2023a, 2023b, 2023c, 2023d, 2023e; Khaleghian et al , 2011; Monajjemi et al , 2010; Mollaamin et al , 2011; Mollaamin, 2022). Functionalized CNTs are easily internalized by cells through passive and endocytosis-independent mechanisms (Sapino et al , 2021; Park et al , 2021; Gao and Zhang, 2022; Chindamo et al , 2020; Salamanna et al , 2021; Choi et al , 2021; Monajjemi, 2015; Mahdavian and Monajjemi, 2010; Mollaamin et al , 2023a, 2023b, 2023c, 2023d, 2023e; Sarasia et al , 2011; Monajjemi, 2017; Mollaamin et al , 2015).…”
