Abstract
One of the most fascinating 2D nanomaterials (NMs) ever found is various members of MXene family. Among them, the titanium-based MXenes, with more than 70% of publication-related investigations, are comparatively well studied, producing fundamental foundation for the 2D MXene family members with flexible properties, familiar with a variety of advanced novel technological applications. Nonetheless, there are still more candidates among transitional metals (TMs) that can function as MXene NMs in ways that go well beyond those that are now recognized. Systematized details of the preparations, characteristics, limitations, significant discoveries, and uses of the novel M-based MXenes (M-MXenes), where M stands for non-Ti TMs (M = Sc, V, Cr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, W, and Lu), are given. The exceptional qualities of the 2D non-Ti MXene outperform standard Ti-MXene in several applications. There is many advancement in top-down as well as bottom-up production of MXenes family members, which allows for exact control of the M-characteristics MXene NMs to contain cutting-edge applications. This study offers a systematic evaluation of existing research, covering everything in producing complex M-MXenes from primary limitations to the characterization and selection of their applications in accordance with their novel features. The development of double metal combinations, extension of additional metal candidates beyond group-(III-VI)B family, and subsequent development of the 2D TM carbide/TMs nitride/TM carbonitrides to 2D metal boride family are also included in this overview. The possibilities and further recommendations for the way of non-Ti MXene NMs are in the synthesis of NMs will discuss in detail in this critical evaluation.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently emerged as a unique developmental influence that is playing an important role in the development of medicine. The AI medium is showing the potential in unprecedented advancements in truth and efficiency. The intersection of AI has the potential to revolutionize drug discovery. However, AI also has limitations and experts should be aware of these data access and ethical issues. The use of AI techniques for drug discovery applications has increased considerably over the past few years, including combinatorial QSAR and QSPR, virtual screening, and denovo drug design. The purpose of this survey is to give a general overview of drug discovery based on artificial intelligence, and associated applications. We also highlighted the gaps present in the traditional method for drug designing. In addition, potential strategies and approaches to overcome current challenges are discussed to address the constraints of AI within this field. We hope that this survey plays a comprehensive role in understanding the potential of AI in drug discovery.

Recent progress in metal oxide-based electrode materials for safe and sustainable variants of supercapacitors. Front Chem 2024; 12:1402563. [PMID: 38831913 PMCID: PMC11144895 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2024.1402563] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
A significant amount of energy can be produced using renewable energy sources; however, storing massive amounts of energy poses a substantial obstacle to energy production. Economic crisis has led to rapid developments in electrochemical (EC) energy storage devices (EESDs), especially rechargeable batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors (SCs), which are effective for energy storage systems. Researchers have lately suggested that among the various EESDs, the SC is an effective alternate for energy storage due to the presence of the following characteristics: SCs offer high-power density (PD), improvable energy density (ED), fast charging/discharging, and good cyclic stability. This review highlighted and analyzed the concepts of supercapacitors and types of supercapacitors on the basis of electrode materials, highlighted the several feasible synthesis processes for preparation of metal oxide (MO) nanoparticles, and discussed the morphological effects of MOs on the electrochemical performance of the devices. In this review, we primarily focus on pseudo-capacitors for SCs, which mainly contain MOs and their composite materials, and also highlight their future possibilities as a useful application of MO-based materials in supercapacitors. The novelty of MO's electrode materials is primarily due to the presence of synergistic effects in the hybrid materials, rich redox activity, excellent conductivity, and chemical stability, making them excellent for SC applications.

Abstract
For the integration of targeted diagnosis and treatment of tumor, we innovatively designed and synthesized a single-molecule hetero-multinuclear Er(III)-Cu(II) complex (ErCu2) and then constructed an ErCu2@apoferritin (AFt) nanoparticle (NP) delivery system. ErCu2 and ErCu2@AFt NPs not only provided an evident photoacoustic imaging (PAI) signal of the tumor but also effectively inhibited tumor growth by integrating photothermal therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. ErCu2@AFt NPs improved the targeting ability and decreased the systemic toxicity of ErCu2 in vivo. Furthermore, we confirmed that ErCu2 and ErCu2@AFt NPs inhibited tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and autophagy of tumor cells and activating the immune system. The study not only provides a novel strategy to develop therapeutic metal agents but also reveals their potential for targeted accurate diagnosis and multimodality therapy of cancer.

Abstract
Early detection of cancer can effectively improve the survival rate of cancer patients. Fluorescence imaging has the advantages of high sensitivity and rapid imaging, and is widely used in the precise imaging detection of tumors. In this study, five kinds of Au-rare earth bimetallic
nanoclusters (Au/Ln NCs) were prepared by template method using five representative rare earth elements doped with gold. The morphologies, surface charges, sizes, fluorescence quantum yields and maximum fluorescence emission wavelengths of these five kinds of Au/Ln NCs were characterized and
contrasted. The findings indicated that the Au/Ce nanoclusters (Au/Ce NCs) prepared by Ce doping have the longest fluorescence emission wavelength (695 nm) and higher quantum yield, which could effectively avoid the interference of autofluorescence, and was suitable for fluorescence imaging
of tumor cells. In order to improve the specific accumulation of nanoclusters in tumor cells, Au/Ce NCs were coated with folic acid modified liposomes (lip-FA) to constructed a targeted fluorescent imaging probe with near-infrared response (Au/Ce@lip-FA), which was successfully used for fluorescence
imaging of tumor cells. The probe has the characteristics of stable fluorescence signal, good targeting, easy internalization, and safe metabolism, and can provide high-resolution and high-brightness imaging information, which is expected to play an important role in the clinical diagnosis
and surgical treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Background Liquid biomarkers have shown increasing utility in the clinical management of airway diseases. Salivary and blood samples are particularly amenable to point-of-care (POC) testing due to simple specimen collection and processing. However, very few POC tests have successfully progressed to clinical application due to the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding their diagnostic accuracy. Objective To review liquid biomarkers of airway diseases with well-established diagnostic accuracies and discuss their prospects for future POC applications. Methodology A literature review of publications indexed in Medline or Embase was performed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of liquid biomarkers for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), and COVID-19. Results Of 3,628 studies, 71 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Sputum and blood eosinophils were the most frequently investigated biomarkers for the management of asthma and COPD. Salivary pepsin was the only biomarker with a well-documented accuracy for the diagnosis of LPR. Inflammatory blood biomarkers (e.g., CRP, D-dimers, ferritin) were found to be useful to predict the severity, complications, and mortality related to COVID-19 infection. Conclusion Multiple liquid biomarkers have well-established diagnostic accuracies and are thus amenable to POC testing in clinical settings.

Abstract
Background and Aims Malnutrition is highly prevalent and is related to multiple impaired clinical outcomes in cancer patients. This study aimed to de novo create an objective, nutrition-related index specially for prognostic purposes in oncology populations. Methods We performed a multicenter cohort study including 14,134 cancer patients. The prognostic impact for each baseline characteristic was estimated by calculating Harrell's C-index. The optimal parameters reflecting the nutritional and inflammatory impact on patients' overall survival were selected to develop the fat-age-inflammation (FAIN) index. The associations of the FAIN with the nutritional status, physical performance, quality of life, short-term outcomes and mortality of patients were comprehensively evaluated. Independent external validation was performed to further assess the prognostic value of the FAIN. Results The study enrolled 7,468 men and 6,666 women with a median age of 57 years and a median follow-up of 42 months. The FAIN index was defined as: (triceps skinfold thickness + albumin) / [age + 5 × (neutrophil count/lymphocyte count)]. There were significant associations of the FAIN with the nutritional status, physical performance, quality of life and short-term outcomes. The FAIN also showed better discrimination performance than the Nutritional Risk Index, the Prognostic Nutritional Index and the Controlling Nutritional Status index (all P < 0.05). In multivariable-adjusted models, the FAIN was independently associated with a reduced death hazard both as a continuous variable (HR = 0.57, 95%CI = 0.47–0.68) and per one standard deviation (HR = 0.83, 95%CI = 0.78–0.88). External validation in a multicenter lung cancer cohort (n = 227) further confirmed the prognostic value of the FAIN. Conclusions This study created and assessed the prognostic FAIN index, which might act as a feasible option to monitor the nutritional status and help develop intervention strategies to optimize the survival outcomes of cancer patients.

Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY), which possess sp- and sp2-hybridized carbon and Dirac cones, offers unique physical and chemical properties, including an adjustable intrinsic bandgap, excellent charge carrier transfer efficiency, and superior conductivity compared to other carbon allotropes. These exceptional qualities of GDY and its derivatives have been successfully used in a variety of fields, including catalysis, energy, environmental protection, and biological applications. Herein, we focus on the potential application of GDY and its derivatives in the biomedical domain, including biosensing, biological protection, cancer therapy, and antibacterial agents, demonstrating how the biomimetic behavior of these materials can be a step forward in bridging the gap between nature and applications. Considering the excellent biocompatibility, solubility and selectivity of GDY and its derived materials, they have shown great potential as biosensing and bio-imaging materials. The unusual combination of properties in GDY has been used in biological applications such as "OFF-ON" DNA detection and enzymatic sensing, where GDY has a greater adsorption capacity than graphene and other 2D materials, resulting in increased sensitivity. GDY and its derivatives have also been used in cancer treatment due to their high doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity (using-stacking) and photothermal conversion ability, and radiation protection since their initial biological use. The poor biodegradation rate of graphene demands the search for new nanomaterials. Accordingly, GDY has better biocompatibility and bio-safety than other 2D nanomaterials, especially graphene and its oxide, due to its absence of aggregation in the physiological environment. Thus, GDY-based nanomaterials have become promising candidates as bio-delivery carriers. Besides, GDY and GDY-based materials have also shown interesting applications in the fields of cell-culture, cell-growth and tissue engineering. Herein, we present a comprehensive review on the applications of GDY and its derivatives as biomedical materials, followed by their future perspectives. This review will provide an outlook for the application of graphene and its derivatives and may open up new horizons to inspire broader interests across various disciplines. Finally, the future prospects for GDY-based materials are examined for their potential biological use.
