Green synthesis from plant waste involves the generation of functional nanoparticles (NPs), offering significant potential for a wide range of applications. Numerous studies have focused on the use of plant extracts to produce AuNPs suitable for various applications in the medical field, particularly in photothermal therapy and cancer therapy, owing to their plasmonic properties. Moreover, NP-mediated immunostimulation and immunosuppression is an intriguing field of research, focusing on how manipulation of NP physicochemical properties can influence their inter-action with immune cells and immune modulation. However, to date, few investigations have been conducted on the modulation of the inflammatory response mediated by green-synthesized nanostructures. To this aim, we synthesized AuNPs using extracts of Laurus nobilis, which exhibit high crystallinity and are inherently coated by a dense network of …
