Understanding the interaction of nanomaterials and immune cells at the biomolecular level is of great significance in therapeutic applications. Here, the authors investigated the interaction of graphene oxide nanomaterials and several immune cell subpopulations using single-cell mass cytometry and genome-wide transcriptome analysis.
