A water transfer printing method for contact lenses surface 2D MXene modification to resist bacterial infection and inflammation.

Contact lenses (CLs) are prone to adhesion and invasion by pollutants and pathogenic bacteria, leading to infection and inflammatory diseases. However, the functionalization of CL (biological functions such as anti-fouling, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory) and maintaining its transparency still face great challenges. In this work, as a member of the MXenes family, vanadium carbide (V2C) is modified onto CL via a water transfer printing method after the formation of a tightly arranged uniform film at the water surface under the action of the Marangoni effect. The coating interface is stable owing to the electrostatic forces. The V2C-modified CL (V2C@CL) maintains optical clarity while providing good biocompatibility, strong antioxidant properties, and anti-inflammatory activities. In vitro antibacterial experiments indicate that V2C@CL shows excellent performance in bacterial anti-adhesion, sterilization, and anti-biofilm formation. Last, V2C@CL displays notable advantages of bacteria elimination and inflammation removal in infectious keratitis treatment.

Progress and Perspective in harnessing MXene-carbon-based composites (0-3D): Synthesis, performance, and applications.

MXene is recognized as a promising catalyst for versatile applications due to its abundant metal sites, physicochemical properties, and structural formation. This comprehensive review offers an in-depth analysis of the incorporation of carbon into MXene, resulting in the formation of MXene-carbon-based composites (MCCs). Pristine MXene exhibits numerous outstanding characteristics, such as its atomically thin 2D structure, hydrophilic surface nature, metallic electrical conductivity, and substantial specific surface area. The introduction of carbon guides the assembly of MCCs through electrostatic self-assembly, pairing positively charged carbon with negatively charged MXene. These interactions result in increased interlayer spacing, reduced ion/electron transport distances, and enhanced surface hydrophilicity. Subsequent sections delve into the synthesis methods for MCCs, focusing on MXene integrated with various carbon structures, including 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D carbon. Comprehensive discussions explore the distinctive properties of MCCs and the unique advantages they offer in each application domain, emphasizing the contributions and advancements they bring to specific fields. Furthermore, this comprehensive review addresses the challenges encountered by MCCs across different applications. Through these analyses, the review promotes a deeper understanding of exceptional characteristics and potential applications of MCCs. Insights derived from this review can serve as guidance for future research and development efforts, promoting the widespread utilization of MCCs across a broad spectrum of disciplines and spurring future innovations.

Reversible pH-Gated MXene Membranes with Ultrahigh Mono-/Divalent-Ion Selectivity.

Artificial ion channel membranes hold high promise in water treatment, nanofluidics, and energy conversion, but it remains a great challenge to construct such smart membranes with both reversible ion-gating capability and desirable ion selectivity. Herein, we constructed a smart MXene-based membrane via p-phenylenediamine functionalization (MLM-PPD) with highly stable and aligned two-dimensional subnanochannels, which exhibits reversible ion-gating capability and ultrahigh metal ion selectivity similar to biological ion channels. The pH-sensitive groups within the MLM-PPD channel confers excellent reversible Mg2+-gating capability with a pH-switching ratio of up to 100. The mono/divalent metal-ion selectivity up to 1243.8 and 400.9 for K+/Mg2+ and Li+/Mg2+, respectively, outperforms other reported membranes. Theoretical calculations combined with experimental results reveal that the steric hindrance and stronger PPD-ion interactions substantially enhance the energy barrier for divalent metal ions passing through the MLM-PPD, and thus leading to ultrahigh mono/divalent metal-ion selectivity. This work provides a new strategy for developing artificial-ion channel membranes with both reversible ion-gating functionality and high-ion selectivity for various applications.

The Role of MXene Surface Terminations on Peptide Transportation in Nanopore Sensing.

Nanopores with two-dimensional materials have various advantages in sensing, but the fast translocation of molecules hinders their scale-up applications. In this work, we investigate the influence of -F, -O, and -OH surface terminations on the translocation of peptides through MXene nanopores. We find that the longest dwell time always occurs when peptides pass through the Ti3C2O2 nanopores. This elongated dwell time is induced by the strongest interaction between peptides and the Ti3C2O2 membrane, in which the van der Waals interactions dominate. Compared to the other two MXene nanopores, the braking effect is indicated during the whole translocation process, which evidence the advantage of Ti3C2O2 in nanopore sensing. Our work demonstrates that membrane surface chemistry has a great influence on the translocation of peptides, which can be introduced in the design of nanopores for a better performance.

Self-assembly of a AuNPs/Ti3C2 MXene hydrogel for cascade amplification of microRNA-122 biosensing.

A three-dimensional (3D) self-assembled AuNPs/Ti3C2 MXene hydrogel (AuNPs/Ti3C2 MXH) nanocomposite was prepared for the fabrication of a novel microRNA-122 electrochemical biosensor. The 3D hydrogel structure was gelated from two-dimensional MXene nanosheets with the assistance of graphite oxide and ethylenediamine. MXene hydrogels supported the in situ formation of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) that predominantly exploring the (111) facet, and these AuNPs are utilized as carriers for hairpin DNA (hpDNA) probes, facilitating DNA hybridization. MXene acted as both a reductant and stabilizer, significantly improving the electrochemical signal. In addition, the conjugation of PAMAM dendrimer-encapsulated AuNPs and H-DNA worked as an ideal bridge to connect targets and efficient electrochemical tags, providing a high amplification efficiency for the sensing of microRNA-122. A linear relationship between the peak currents and the logarithm of the concentrations of microRNA-122 from 1.0 × 10-2 to 1.0 × 102 fM (I = 1.642 + 0.312 lgc, R2 = 0.9891), is obtained. The detection limit is  0.8 × 10-2 fM (S/N = 3). The average recovery for human serum detection ranged from 97.32 to 101.4% (RSD < 5%).

Highly elastic, fatigue-resistant, antibacterial, conductive, and nanocellulose-enhanced hydrogels with selenium nanoparticles loading as strain sensors.

The fabrication of highly elastic, fatigue-resistant and conductive hydrogels with antibacterial properties is highly desirable in the field of wearable devices. However, it remains challenging to simultaneously realize the above properties within one hydrogel without compromising excellent sensing ability. Herein, we fabricated a highly elastic, fatigue-resistant, conductive, antibacterial and cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) enhanced hydrogel as a sensitive strain sensor by the synergistic effect of biosynthesized selenium nanoparticles (BioSeNPs), MXene and nanocellulose. The structure and potential mechanism to generate biologically synthesized SeNPs (BioSeNPs) were systematically investigated, and the role of protease A (PrA) in enhancing the adsorption between proteins and SeNPs was demonstrated. Additionally, owing to the incorporation of BioSeNPs, CNC and MXene, the synthesized hydrogels showed high elasticity, excellent fatigue resistance and antibacterial properties. More importantly, the sensitivity of hydrogels determined by the gauge factor was as high as 6.24 when a high strain was applied (400-700 %). This study provides a new horizon to synthesize high-performance antibacterial and conductive hydrogels for soft electronics applications.

An ATPase-Mimicking MXene nanozyme pharmacologically breaks the ironclad defense system for ferroptosis cancer therapy.

Anticancer nanomedicines used for ferroptosis therapy generally rely on the direct delivery of Fenton catalysts to drive lipid peroxidation in cancer cells. However, the therapeutic efficacy is limited by the ferroptosis resistance caused by the intracellular anti-ferroptotic signals. Herein, we report the intrinsic ATPase-mimicking activity of a vanadium carbide MXene nanozyme (PVCMs) to pharmacologically modulate the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) program, which is the master anti-ferroptotic mediator in the ironclad defense system in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The PVCMs perform high ATPase-like activity that can effectively and selectively catalyze the dephosphorylation of ATP to generate ADP. Through a cascade mechanism initiated by falling energy status, PVCMs can powerfully hinder the Nrf2 program to selectively drive ferroptosis in TNBC cells in response to PVCMs-induced glutathione depletion. This study provides a paradigm for the use of pharmacologically active nanozymes to moderate specific cellular signals and elicit desirable pharmacological activities for therapeutic applications.

Injectable Bombyx mori (B. mori) silk fibroin/MXene conductive hydrogel for electrically stimulating neural stem cells into neurons for treating brain damage.

Brain damage is a common tissue damage caused by trauma or diseases, which can be life-threatening. Stem cell implantation is an emerging strategy treating brain damage. The stem cell is commonly embedded in a matrix material for implantation, which protects stem cell and induces cell differentiation. Cell differentiation induction by this material is decisive in the effectiveness of this treatment strategy. In this work, we present an injectable fibroin/MXene conductive hydrogel as stem cell carrier, which further enables in-vivo electrical stimulation upon stem cells implanted into damaged brain tissue. Cell differentiation characterization of stem cell showed high effectiveness of electrical stimulation in this system, which is comparable to pure conductive membrane. Axon growth density of the newly differentiated neurons increased by 290% and axon length by 320%. In addition, unfavored astrocyte differentiation is minimized. The therapeutic effect of this system is proved through traumatic brain injury model on rats. Combined with in vivo electrical stimulation, cavities formation is reduced after traumatic brain injury, and rat motor function recovery is significantly promoted.

Potential application of 2D nano-layered MXene in analysing and remediating endocrine disruptor compounds and heavy metals in water.

With the advancement of technologies and growth of the economy, it is inevitable that more complex processes are deployed, producing more heterogeneous wastewater that comes from biomedical, biochemical and various biotechnological industries. While the conventional way of wastewater treatment could effectively reduce the chemical oxygen demand, pH and turbidity of wastewater, trace pollutants, specifically the endocrine disruptor compounds (EDCs) that exist in µg L-1 or ng L-1 have further hardened the detection and removal of these biochemical pollutants. Even in small amounts, EDC could interfere human's hormone, causing severe implications on human body. Hence, this review elucidates the recent insights regarding the effectiveness of an advanced 2D material based on titanium carbide (Ti3C2Tx), also known as MXene, in detecting and removing EDCs. MXene's highly tunable feature also allows its surface chemistry to be adjusted by adding chemicals with different functional groups to adsorb different kinds of EDCs for biochemical pollution mitigation. At the same time, the incorporation of MXene into sample matrices also further eases the analysis of trace pollutants down to ng L-1 levels, thereby making way for a more cleaner and comprehensive wastewater treatment. In that sense, this review also highlights the progress in synthesizing MXene from the conventional method to the more modern approaches, together with their respective key parameters. To further understand and attest to the efficacy of MXene, the limitations and current gaps of this potential agent are also accentuated, targeting to seek resolutions for a more sustainable application.

Functionalized lignin nanoparticles assembled with MXene reinforced polypropylene with favorable UV-aging resistance, electromagnetic shielding effects and superior fire-safety.

Deterioration in mechanical performances and aging resistance due to the introduction of flame retardants is a major obstacle for bio-based fire-safety polypropylene (PP). Herein, we reported a kind of functionalized lignin nanoparticles assembled with MXene (MX@LNP), and applied it to construct the flame-retardant PP composites (PP-MA) with superior fire safety, excellent mechanical performance, electromagnetic shielding effects and aging resistance. Specifically, the PP-MA doped with only 18 wt% flame-retardant additives (PP-MA18) achieved the UL-94 V-0 rating. In comparison to pure PP, PP-MA18 presented a greatly decreased peak of heat release rate (pHRR), total heat rate (THR), and peak smoke production rate (pSPR) by 79.7 %, 69.0 % and 75.8 %, respectively, and satisfactory decrease in total flammable and toxic volatiles evolved. The formed fine solid microstructure of carbon residuals effectively promoted the compactness of char layers. More importantly, the nano-effect and the strong interface interaction between the complexed MX@LNP and PP enhanced the tensile strength (45.78 MPa) and elongation at break (725.95 %) of PP-MA. Additionally, the significant ultraviolet absorption and electromagnetic wave dissipation performance of MXene and lignin enabled excellent aging resistance and electromagnetic shielding effects of PP-MA compared with PP. This achieved MX@LNP afforded a novel approach for developing flame retardant materials with excellent application performance.

Multifunctional Ti3C2Tx MXene-reinforced thermoplastic starch nanocomposites for sustainable packaging solutions.

Starch-derived films exhibit significant potential for packaging applications owing to their low cost, biodegradable characteristics, and natural abundance. Nonetheless, there is a demand to enhance their mechanical properties and moisture resistance to broaden their use. In this study, high performing sorbitol-plasticized starch/Ti3C2Tx MXene nanocomposites, reinforced with ultra-low filler contents, were fabricated for the first time in literature. The MXene nanoplatelets were well-dispersed within the starch matrix while there was a tendency for the fillers to align in-plane, as revealed by polarized Raman spectroscopy. The produced nanocomposite films demonstrate remarkable effectiveness in blocking UV light, offering an additional valuable attribute in food packaging. The Young's modulus and tensile strength of starch films containing 0.75 wt% MXene increased from 439.9 and 11.0 MPa to 764.3 and 20.8 MPa, respectively. The introduction of 1 wt% MXene nanoplatelets reduced the water vapour permeability of starch films from 2.78 × 10-7 to 1.80 × 10-7 g/m h Pa due to the creation of highly tortuous paths for water molecules. Micromechanical theories were also implemented to understand further the reinforcing mechanisms in the biobased nanocomposites. The produced starch nanocomposites not only capitalize on the biodegradable and renewable nature of starch but also harness the unique properties of nanomaterials, paving the way for sustainable and high-performance packaging solutions that align with both consumer and environmental demands.

MXene-supported MIL-88A(Fe) as persulfate activator for removal of tetracycline.

The poor conductivity, poor stability, and agglomeration of iron-based metal organic framework MIL-88A(Fe) limit its application as persulfate (PS) activator in water purification. Herein, MXene-supported MIL-88A(Fe) composites (M88A/MX) were synthesized to enhance its adsorption and catalytic capability for tetracycline (TC) removal. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize prepared materials, confirming the successful attachment of MIL-88A(Fe) to the surface of MXene. M88A/MX-0.2 composites, prepared with 0.2 g MXene addition, exhibit optimal degradation efficiency, reaching 98% under conditions of 0.2 g/L M88A/MX-0.2, 1.0 mM PS, 20 ppm TC, and pH 5. The degradation rate constants of M88A/MX-0.2 were 0.03217 min-1, which was much higher than that of MIL-88A(Fe) (0.00159 min-1) and MXene (0.00626 min-1). The removal effects of reaction parameters, such as dosage of M88A/MX-0.2 and PS; initial solution pH; and the presence of the common co-existing constituents (humic acid and the inorganic anions) were investigated in detail. Additionally, the reuse of M88A/MX-0.2 showed that the composites had good cycling stability by recurrent experiments. The results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quenching experiments indicated that ·OH, ·SO4-, and ·O2- were involved in the M88A/MX-0.2/PS system where persulfate oxidation process was activated with prepared M88A/MX-0.2. In addition, the intermediates of photocatalytic degradation were determined by HPLC-MS, and the possible degradation pathways of the target molecules were inferred. This study offered a new avenue for sulfate-based degradation of Fe-based metal organic framework.

Metabolomic analysis to understand the mechanism of Ti3C2Tx (MXene) toxicity in Daphnia magna.

Due to their potential release into the environment, the ecotoxicity of Ti3C2Tx (MXene) nanomaterials is a growing concern. Unfortunately, little is known about the toxic effects and mechanisms through which Ti3C2Tx induces toxicity in aquatic organisms. The aim of this study is thus to investigate the toxic effects and mechanisms of Daphnia magna upon exposure to Ti3C2Tx with different sheet sizes (100 nm [Ti3C2Tx-100] and 500 nm [Ti3C2Tx-500]) by employing conventional toxicology and metabolomics analysis. The results showed that exposure to both Ti3C2Tx-100 and Ti3C2Tx-500 at 10 µg/mL resulted in a significant accumulation of Ti3C2Tx in D. magna, but no effects on the mortality or growth of D. magna were observed. However, the metabolomics results revealed that Ti3C2Tx-100 and Ti3C2Tx-500 induced significant changes in up to 265 and 191 differential metabolites in D. magna, respectively, of which 116 metabolites were common for both. Ti3C2Tx-100-induced metabolites were mainly enriched in phospholipid, pyrimidine, tryptophan, and arginine metabolism, whereas Ti3C2Tx-500-induced metabolites were mainly enriched in the glycerol-ester, tryptophan, and glyoxylate metabolism and the pentose phosphate pathway. These results indicated that the toxicity of Ti3C2Tx to D. magna has a size-dependent effect at the metabolic level, and both sheet sizes of Ti3C2Tx can lead to metabolic disturbances in D. magna by interfering with lipid and amino acid metabolism pathways.

Skeletal muscle regeneration with 3D bioprinted hyaluronate/gelatin hydrogels incorporating MXene nanoparticles.

There has been significant progress in the field of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology, leading to active research on creating bioinks capable of producing structurally and functionally tissue-mimetic constructs. Ti3C2Tx MXene nanoparticles (NPs), promising two-dimensional nanomaterials, are being investigated for their potential in muscle regeneration due to their unique physicochemical properties. In this study, we integrated MXene NPs into composite hydrogels made of gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and hyaluronic acid methacryloyl (HAMA) to develop bioinks (namely, GHM bioink) that promote myogenesis. The prepared GHM bioinks were found to offer excellent printability with structural integrity, cytocompatibility, and microporosity. Additionally, MXene NPs within the 3D bioprinted constructs encouraged the differentiation of C2C12 cells into skeletal muscle cells without additional support of myogenic agents. Genetic analysis indicated that representative myogenic markers both for early and late myogenesis were significantly up-regulated. Moreover, animal studies demonstrated that GHM bioinks contributed to enhanced regeneration of skeletal muscle while reducing immune responses in mice models with volumetric muscle loss (VML). Our results suggest that the GHM hydrogel can be exploited to craft a range of strategies for the development of a novel bioink to facilitate skeletal muscle regeneration because these MXene-incorporated composite materials have the potential to promote myogenesis.

Ti2C3 MXene-based nanocomposite as an intelligent nanoplatform for efficient mild hyperthermia treatment.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted much attention due to its less invasive, controllable and highly effective nature. However, PTT also suffers from intrinsic cancer resistance mediated by cell survival pathways. These survival pathways are regulated by a variety of proteins, among which heat shock protein (HSP) triggers thermotolerance and protects tumor cells from hyperthermia-induced apoptosis. Confronted by this challenge, we propose and validate here a novel MXene-based HSP-inhibited mild photothermal platform, which significantly enhances the sensitivity of tumor cells to heat-induced stress and thus improves the PPT efficacy. The Ti3C2@Qu nanocomposites are constructed by utilizing the high photothermal conversion ability of Ti3C2 nanosheets in combination with quercetin (Qu) as an inhibitor of HSP70. Qu molecules are loaded onto the nanoplatform in a pH-sensitive controlled release manner. The acidic environment of the tumor causes the burst-release of Qu molecules, which deplete the level of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in tumor cells and leave the tumor cells out from the protection of the heat-resistant survival pathway in advance, thus sensitizing the hyperthermia efficacy. The nanostructure, photothermal properties, pH-responsive controlled release, synergistic photothermal ablation of tumor cells in vitro and in vivo, and hyperthermia effect on subcellular structures of the Ti3C2@Qu nanocomposites were systematically investigated.

Transition Metal Ru(II) Catalysts Immobilized Nanoreactors for Conditional Bioorthogonal Catalysis in Cells.

Employing transition metal catalysts (TMCs) to perform bioorthogonal activation of prodrugs and pro-fluorophores in biological systems, particularly in a conditional fashion, remains a challenge. Here, we used a mesoporous organosilica nanoscaffold (RuMSN), which localizes Ru(II) conjugates on the pore wall, enabling the biorthogonal photoreduction reactions of azide groups. Due to easily adjustable surface charges and pore diameter, this efficiently engineering RuMSN catalyst, with abundant active sites on the inner pore well, could spontaneously repel or attract substrates with different molecular sizes and charges and thus ensure selective bioorthogonal catalysis. Depending on it, engineering RuMSN nanoreactors showed fascinating application scales from conditional bioorthogonal activation of prodrugs and pro-fluorophores in either intra- or extracellular localization to performing intracellular concurrent and tandem catalysis together with natural enzymes.

Sulfhydryl-functionalized 3D MXene-AuNPs enabled electrochemical sensors for the selective determination of Pb2+, Cu2+ and Hg2+ in grain.

Herein, we made 3D MXene-AuNPs by in situ growth of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the surface of MXene by chemical reduction method, and then introduced three sulfhydryl (-SH) compounds as functionalized modifiers attached to the AuNPs to form a highly selective composite material for the detection of Pb2+, Cu2+, and Hg2+, respectively. The doping of AuNPs changes the microstructure of 2D MXene and generates more active sites. On a sensing platform based on ITO array electrodes, the detection system was optimised with sensitivities up to 1.157, 0.846 and 0.799 µA·µg-1Lcm-2 (Pb2+, Cu2+, and Hg2+). The selectivity of MXene@AuNPs was effectively improved by sulfhydryl group modification. In the range of 1-1300 µg L-1, the detection limits of three ions were 0.07, 0.13 and 0.21 µg L-1. In addition, this method can efficiently and accurately detect heavy metal ions in four cereal samples with consistent results with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.

Facile preparation of fatigue-resistant Mxene-reinforced chitosan cryogel for accelerated hemostasis and wound healing.

The development of highly effective chitosan-based hemostatic materials that can be utilized for deep wound hemostasis remains a considerable challenge. In this study, a hemostatic antibacterial chitosan/N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide (NHEMAA)/Ti3C2Tx (CSNT) composite cryogel was facilely prepared through the physical interactions between the three components and the spontaneous condensation of NHEMAA. Because of the formation of strong crosslinked network, the CSNT cryogel showed a developed pore structure (~ 99.07 %) and superfast water/blood-triggered shape recovery, enabling it to fill the wound after contacting the blood. Its capillary effect, amino groups, negative charges, and affinity with lipid collectively induced rapid hemostasis, which was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo analysis. In addition, CSNT cryogel showed excellent photothermal antibacterial activities, high biosafety, and in vivo wound healing ability. Furthermore, the presence of chitosan effectively prevented the oxidation of MXene, thus enabling the long-term storage of the MXene-reinforced cryogel. Thus, our hemostatic cryogel demonstrates promising potential for clinical application and commercialization, as it combines high resilience, rapid hemostasis, efficient sterilization, long-term storage, and easy mass production.
