Abstract
MXenes are two-dimensional nanomaterials with unique properties that are widely used in various fields of research, mostly in the field of energy. Fewer publications are devoted to MXene application in biomedicine and the question is: are MXenes safe for use in biological systems? The sharp edges of MXenes provide the structure of "nanoknives" which cause damage in direct physical contact with cells. This is effectively used for antibacterial research. However, on the other hand, most studies in cultured cells and rodents report that they do not cause obvious signs of cytotoxicity and are fully biocompatible. The aim of our review was to consider whether MXenes can really be considered non-toxic and biocompatible. Often the last two concepts are confused. We first reviewed aspects such as the stability and biodegradation of MXenes, and then analyzed the mechanisms of toxicity and their consequences for bacteria, cultured cells, and rodents, with subsequent conclusions regarding their biocompatibility.

Abstract
The repair of mandibular defects is a challenging clinical problem, and associated infections often hinder the treatment, leading to failure in bone regeneration. Herein, a multifunctional platform is designed against the shortages of existing therapies for infected bone deficiency. 2D Ti3C2 MXene and berberine (BBR) are effectively loaded into 3D printing biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) scaffolds. The prepared composite scaffolds take the feature of the excellent photothermal capacity of Ti3C2 as an antibacterial, mediating NIR-responsive BBR release under laser stimuli. Meanwhile, the sustained release of BBR enhances its antibacterial effect and further accelerates the bone healing process. Importantly, the integration of Ti3C2 improves the mechanical properties of the 3D scaffolds, which are beneficial for new bone formation. Their remarkable biomedical performances in vitro and in vivo present the outstanding antibacterial and osteogenic properties of the Ti3C2-BBR functionalized BCP scaffolds. The synergistic therapy makes it highly promising for repairing infected bone defects and provides insights into a wide range of applications of 2D nanosheets in biomedicine.

Abstract
The infectious disease epidemics caused by pathogens are a serious and growing worldwide public health problem. More seriously, the multiple resistant bacteria extensively spread in hospitals or communities due to antibiotic abuse. In this paper, we fabricate two-dimensional Ti3C2 nanosheets with excellent biocompatibility and photothermal-photodynamic synergistic antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus based on the strategy of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH)-driven intercalation and delamination. Compared with the traditional Ti3C2 nanosheets exfoliated by HF or situ HF (HCl + LiF), the photothermal-photodynamic Ti3C2 nanosheets show higher synergistic antibacterial efficiency. In addition, the antibacterial mechanism demonstrates that biofilm disruption and leakage of bacterial contents contribute to reactive oxygen species reaction (ROS) and photothermal antibacterial activity irradiated by NIR after most Ti3C2 nanosheets adhering to target bacteria. In conclusion, the Ti3C2 nanosheets have great potential as an effective antibacterial material without causing drug resistance, relying on intercalating and delaminating by TMAOH.

Abstract
Bacterial pollution in water sources poses a serious threat to human health and causes a water crisis. To treat it efficiently and ecologically, many studies have explored the antibacterial properties of two-dimensional nanomaterials in water, but their static antibacterial modes limit their effectiveness. In this work, we designed a facile and effective antibacterial nanorobots by loading super small gold nanorods (sAuNR) onto the surface of MXene nanosheets (MXene@sAuNR). The plasmon resonance effect of sAuNR can enhance the optical absorption cross section of the nanorobots, thereby improving their motion ability under irradiation and then causing cell membrane mechanical damage to bacteria. Our research proved that nanorobots with good optical driving characteristics displayed gratifying antibacterial properties even at ultra-low concentration as 5 µg/mL within 30 min. Furthermore, the nanorobots showed satisfactory antibacterial efficiency in real river samples under sunlight irradiation. These nanorobots presented in this study provides valuable insights towards designing self-energy collection and self-driving antibacterial materials that overcome the shortcomings of conventional static antibacterial methods. As sunlight is the cheapest and natural light source, these nanorobots have opened an effective and sustainable way for large-scale treatment of bacterial pollution in water.

Abstract
Bacterial infection often induces chronic repair of wound healing owing to aggravated inflammation. Hydrogel dressing exhibiting intrinsic antibacterial activity may substantially reduce the use of antibiotics for infected wound management. Hence, a versatile hydrogel dressing (rGB/QCS/PDA-PAM) exhibiting skin adaptiveness on dynamic wounds and mild photothermal antibacterial activity is developed for safe and efficient infected wound treatment. Phenylboronic acid-functionalized graphene (rGB) and oxadiazole-decorated quaternary carboxymethyl chitosan (QCS) are incorporated into a polydopamine-polyacrylamide (PDA-PAM) network with multiple covalent and noncovalent bonds, which conferred the hydrogel with flexible mechanical properties, strong tissue adhesion and excellent self-healing ability on the dynamic wounds. Moreover, the glycocalyx-mimicking phenylboronic acid on the surface of rGB enables the hydrogel to specifically capture bacteria. The enhanced membrane permeability of QCS enhanced bacterial vulnerability to photothermal therapy(PTT), which is demonstrated by efficient mild PTT antibacteria against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in vitro and in vivo at temperatures of <49.6 °C. Consequently, the hydrogel demonstrate accelerated tissue regeneration on MRSA-infected wound in vivo, with an intact epidermis, abundant collagen deposition and prominent angiogenesis. Therefore, rGB/QCS/PDA-PAM is a versatile hydrogel dressing exhibiting inherent antibacterial activity and has considerable potential in treating wounds infected with drug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
The mutations of bacteria due to the excessive use of antibiotics, and generation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria have made the development of new antibacterial compounds a necessity. MXenes have emerged as biocompatible transition metal carbide structures with extensive biomedical applications. This is related to the MXenes' unique combination of properties, including multifarious elemental compositions, 2D-layered structure, large surface area, abundant surface terminations, and excellent photothermal and photoelectronic properties. The focus of this review is the antibacterial application of MXenes, which has attracted the attention of researchers since 2016. A quick overview of the synthesis strategies of MXenes is provided and then summarizes the effect of various factors (including structural properties, optical properties, surface charges, flake size, and dispersibility) on the biocidal activity of MXenes. The main mechanisms for deactivating bacteria by MXenes are discussed in detail including rupturing of the bacterial membrane by sharp edges of MXenes nanoflakes, generating the reactive oxygen species (ROS), and photothermal deactivating of bacteria. Hybridization of MXenes with other organic and inorganic materials can result in materials with improved biocidal activities for different applications such as wound dressings and water purification. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of MXene nanomaterials as biocidal agents are presented.

Abstract
Red emissive gold nanoclusters have potential as biological fluorescent probes, but lack sufficient light-to-heat conversion efficiency for photothermal therapy (PTT). MXene nanomaterials, on the other hand, have shown promise in PTT due to their strong near-infrared absorption abilities, but their instability caused by restacking of the sheets can decrease their available surface area. One approach to address this issue is to design sheets with wrinkles or folds. However, the crumpled or 3D MXene materials reported in the literature are actually aggregates of multiple nanosheets rather than a single sheet that is folded. In this study, a modified method for crumpling a single MXene sheet and further conjugating it with red emissive gold nanoclusters and folic acid was developed. A detailed in vitro toxicity study was performed in various cell lines and cellular uptake in cancer cells was studied using AFM to understand its interaction at the nano-bio interface. The material also demonstrated excellent utility as a bioimaging and PTT agent in vitro, with its high fluorescence allowing bioimaging at a lower concentration of 12 μg mL-1 and a photothermal conversion efficiency of 43.51%. In vitro analyses of the cell death mechanisms induced by PTT were conducted through studies of apoptosis, cell proliferation, and ROS production. In vivo acute toxicity tests were conducted on male and female Wistar rats through oral and intravenous administration (20 mg kg-1 dose), and toxicity was evaluated using various measures including body weight, hematology, serum biochemistry, and H&E staining. The findings from these studies suggest that the MXene gold nanoconjugate could be useful in a range of biomedical applications, with no observed toxicity following either oral or intravenous administration.

Abstract
Developing an ideal wound dressing that not only accelerates wound healing but also eliminates potential bacterial infections remains a difficult balancing act. This work reports the design of a light-programmable sodium alginate nanocomposite hydrogel loaded with BiOCl/polypyrrole (BOC/PPy) nanosheets for state-switchable wound healing promotion and bacterial infection elimination remotely. The nanocomposite hydrogel possesses programmable photoelectric or photothermal conversion due to the expanded light absorption range, optimized electron transmission interface, promoted photo-generated charge separation, and transfer of the BOC/PPy nanosheets. Under white light irradiation state, the nanocomposite hydrogel induces human umbilical vein endothelial cells migration and angiogenesis, and accelerates the healing efficiency of mouse skin in vivo. Under near-infrared light irradiation state, the nanocomposite hydrogel presents superior antibacterial capability in vitro, and reaches an antibacterial rate of 99.1% for Staphylococcus aureus infected skin wound in vivo. This light-programmable nanocomposite hydrogel provides an on-demand resolution of biological state-switching to balance wound healing and elimination of bacterial infection.

Abstract
Phototherapy, which generally refers to photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), has received significant attention over the past few years since it is non-invasive, has effective selectivity, and has few side effects. As a result, it has become a promising alternative to traditional clinical treatments. At present, two-dimensional materials (2D materials) have proven to be at the forefront of the development of advanced nanomaterials due to their ultrathin structures and fascinating optical properties. As a result, much work has been put into developing phototherapy platforms based on 2D materials. This review summarizes the current developments in 2D materials beyond graphene for phototherapy, focusing on the novel approaches of PTT and PDT. New methods are being developed to go above and beyond conventional treatment to fully use the potential of 2D materials. Additionally, the efficacy of cutting-edge phototherapy is assessed, and the existing difficulties and future prospects of 2D materials for phototherapy are covered.

Abstract
Incurable implant-related infection may cause catastrophic consequences due to the existence of a biofilm that resists the infiltration of host immune cells and antibiotics. Innovative approaches inspired by nanomedicine, e.g., engineering innovative multifunctional bionic coating systems on the surface of implants, are becoming increasingly attractive. Herein, 2D black phosphorus nanosheets (BPs) were loaded onto a hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated metal implant to construct a BPs@HA composite coating. With its photothermal conversion effect and in situ biomineralization, the BPs@HA coating shows excellent performances in ablating the bacterial biofilm and accelerating fracture healing, which were verified through both in vitro and in vivo studies. Moreover, differentially expressed genes of bone formation and bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) regulated by the BPs@HA coating were identified using absolute quantitative transcriptome sequencing followed by the screening of gene differential expressions. A functional enrichment analysis reveals that the expression of core markers related to BMSC differentiation and bone formation could be effectively regulated by BPs through a metabolism-related pathway. This work not only illustrates the great potential in clinical application of the BPs@HA composite coating to eliminate bacteria and accelerate bone fracture healing but also contributes to an understanding of the underlying molecular mechanism of osteogenesis physiological function regulation based on an analysis of absolute quantitative transcriptome sequencing.

Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS Fabrication, characterizations and photothermal properties of MXenes are systematically described. Photothermal-derived antibacterial performances and mechanisms of MXenes-based materials are summarized and reviewed. Recent advances in the derivative applications relying on antibacterial properties of MXenes-based materials, including in vitro and in vivo sterilization, solar water evaporation and purification, and flexible antibacterial fabrics, are investigated. ABSTRACT The pernicious bacterial proliferation and emergence of super-resistant bacteria have already posed a great threat to public health, which drives researchers to develop antibiotic-free strategies to eradicate these fierce microbes. Although enormous achievements have already been achieved, it remains an arduous challenge to realize efficient sterilization to cut off the drug resistance generation. Recently, photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as a promising solution to efficiently damage the integrity of pathogenic bacteria based on hyperthermia beyond their tolerance. Until now, numerous photothermal agents have been studied for antimicrobial PTT. Among them, MXenes (a type of two-dimensional transition metal carbides or nitrides) are extensively investigated as one of the most promising candidates due to their high aspect ratio, atomic-thin thickness, excellent photothermal performance, low cytotoxicity, and ultrahigh dispersibility in aqueous systems. Besides, the enormous application scenarios using their antibacterial properties can be tailored via elaborated designs of MXenes-based materials. In this review, the synthetic approaches and textural properties of MXenes have been systematically presented first, and then the photothermal properties and sterilization mechanisms using MXenes-based materials are documented. Subsequently, recent progress in diverse fields making use of the photothermal and antibacterial performances of MXenes-based materials are well summarized to reveal the potential applications of these materials for various purposes, including in vitro and in vivo sterilization, solar water evaporation and purification, and flexible antibacterial fabrics. Last but not least, the current challenges and future perspectives are discussed to provide theoretical guidance for the fabrication of efficient antimicrobial systems using MXenes. [Image: see text]

Abstract
Bacterial infection is seriously threatening human health, and the design of high-efficiency and good biocompatibility antibacterial agents is an urgent problem to be solved. However, with the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, the existing antibacterial agents have low killing efficiency, and the formation of biofilms has further weakened the therapeutic effect. Herein, we constructed an efficient antibacterial system mediated by near-infrared light for synergistic antibacterial and biofilm dissipation. Specifically, the ZnO/Ti3C2Tx with heterojunction was synthesized by hydrothermal growth of ZnO on the surface of lamellar Ti3C2Tx-MXene. The prepared ZnO/Ti3C2Tx had better photothermal ability than ZnO and Ti3C2Tx, respectively. The local thermal effect can not only destroy the integrity of the bacterial membrane but also promote the release of Zn2+ ions and further improve the antibacterial performance. ZnO/Ti3C2Tx achieved a 100% sterilization rate (better than either ZnO or Ti3C2Tx) at 150 μg mL-1. The biofilm dissipation experiment further proved its excellent biofilm ablation effect. More importantly, the results of in vitro cell culture and animal experiments have demonstrated its good biological safety. In summary, this new type of nanomaterial shows strong local chemical photothermal sterilization ability and has great potential to replace traditional antibacterial agents.

Abstract
The properties and applications of MXenes (a family of layered transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides) have aroused enormous research interests for a decade since the successful synthesis of few-layer transition metal carbides in 2011. Though MXenes, as the building blocks, have already been applied in various fields (such as wearable electronics) owing to the distinctive optical, mechanical and electrical properties, their thermal stability and intrinsic thermal properties were less thoroughly investigated compared to other characteristics in early reports. The pioneering theoretical prediction of the thermoelectric nature of MXenes was performed in 2013 while the first experiment-based report concerning the degradation behavior of the 2D structure at elevated temperatures in a controlled atmosphere was published in 2015, followed by numerous discoveries regarding the thermal properties of MXenes. Herein, after a brief description of the synthesis, this Review summarized the latest insights into the thermal stability and thermophysical properties of MXenes, and further associated these unique properties with relevant applications by multiple examples. Finally, current hurdles and challenges in this field were provided along with some advices on potential research directions in the future.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets emerged as promising 2D nanomaterial that have been applied to eradicate antibiotic-resistant bacteria. However, their applications are limited by intrinsic ambient instability. Here, the ε-poly-l-lysine (ε-PL)-engineered BP nanosheets are constructed via simple electrostatic interaction to cater the demand for passivating BP with amplified antibacterial activity. The dual drug-delivery complex named BP@ε-PL can closely anchor onto the surface of bacteria, leading to membrane disintegration. Subsequently, in situ hyperthermia generated by BP under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation can precisely eradicate pathogenic bacteria. In vitro antibacterial studies verify the rapid disinfection ability of BP@ε-PL against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) within 15 min. Moreover, ε-PL can serve as an effective protector to avoid chemical degradation of bare BP. The in vivo antibacterial study shows that a 99.4% antibacterial rate in a MRSA skin infection model is achieved, which is accompanied by negligible toxicity. In conclusion, this work not merely provides a new conjecture for protecting the BP, but also opens a novel window for synergistic antibiotic-resistant bacteria therapy based on antimicrobial peptides and 2D photothermal nanomaterial.

Abstract
A broad family of two-dimensional (2D) materials - carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides of early transition metals, called MXenes, became a newcomer in the flatland at the turn of 2010 and 2011 (over ten years ago). Their unique physicochemical properties made them attractive for many applications, highly boosting the development of various fields, including biotechnological. However, MXenes' functional features that impact their bioactivity and toxicity are still not fully well understood. This study discusses the essentials for MXenes's surface modifications toward their application in modern biotechnology and nanomedicine. We survey modification strategies in context of cytotoxicity, biocompatibility, and most prospective applications ready to implement in medical practice. We put the discussion on the material-structure-chemistry-property relationship into perspective and concentrate on overarching challenges regarding incorporating MXenes into nanostructured organic/inorganic bioactive architectures. It is another emerging group of materials that are interesting from the biomedical point of view as well. Finally, we present an influential outlook on the growing demand for future research in this field.
