Protein coronas have been the focus of a great deal of study recently due to their inevitable formation and their impact on the biological consequences of nanomaterials. Although the field is still far from completely and definitively understanding protein coronas, we now have a good understanding of their behavior and their key characteristics. Protein corona composition changes with the environment and time, and also the physical properties of the underlying nanoparticle. More importantly, the protein corona has significant biological impact. Because we have a basic understanding of coronas, we can now move forward to exploiting their unique properties. Here, we discuss some emerging ways in which the protein corona is explicitly utilized for different applications in biology and medicine.
