Abstract
2D materials (2DMs), such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and black phosphorus (BP), have been proposed for different types of bioapplications, owing to their unique physicochemical, electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Liquid phase exfoliation (LPE), as one of the most effective up-scalable and size-controllable methods, is becoming the standard process to produce high quantities of various 2DM types as it can benefit from the use of green and biocompatible conditions. The resulting exfoliated layered materials have garnered significant attention because of their biocompatibility and their potential use in biomedicine as new multimodal therapeutics, antimicrobials, and biosensors. This review focuses on the production of LPE-assisted 2DMs in aqueous solutions with or without the aid of surfactants, bioactive, or non-natural molecules, providing insights into the possibilities of applications of such materials in the biological and biomedical fields.

A Comprehensive Ecotoxicity Study of Molybdenum Disulfide Nanosheets versus Bulk form in Soil Organisms. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:3163. [PMID: 38133059 PMCID: PMC10745638 DOI: 10.3390/nano13243163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
The increasing use of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoparticles (NPs) raises concerns regarding their accumulation in soil ecosystems, with limited studies on their impact on soil organisms. Study aim: To unravel the effects of MoS2 nanosheets (two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 NPs) and bulk MoS2 (156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500 mg/kg) on Enchytraeus crypticus and Folsomia candida. The organisms' survival and avoidance behavior remained unaffected by both forms, while reproduction and DNA integrity were impacted. For E. crypticus, the individual endpoint reproduction was more sensitive, increasing at lower concentrations of bulk MoS2 and decreasing at higher ones and at 625 mg/kg of 2D MoS2 NPs. For F. candida, the molecular endpoint DNA integrity was more impacted: 2500 mg/kg of bulk MoS2 induced DNA damage after 2 days, with all concentrations inducing damage by day 7. 2D MoS2 NPs induced DNA damage at 156 and 2500 mg/kg after 2 days, and at 1250 and 2500 mg/kg after 7 days. Despite affecting the same endpoints, bulk MoS2 induced more effects than 2D MoS2 NPs. Indeed, 2D MoS2 NPs only inhibited E. crypticus reproduction at 625 mg/kg and induced fewer (F. candida) or no effects (E. crypticus) on DNA integrity. This study highlights the different responses of terrestrial organisms to 2D MoS2 NPs versus bulk MoS2, reinforcing the importance of risk assessment when considering both forms.

NANOIMPACT 2023; 30:100462.

Abstract
Before their large-scale applications, it is necessary to understand the biological effects of nanomaterials. Although two-dimensional nanomaterials (2D NMs) molybdenum disulfide nanosheets (MoS2 NSs) are promising in biomedical fields, the current knowledge regarding their toxicities is inadequate. Using apolipoprotein E deficient (ApoE-/-) mice as a long-term exposure model, this study demonstrated that intravenous (i.v.) injection of MoS2 NSs most accumulated in the liver and caused in situ hepatic damage. Histopathological examination indicated severe infiltration of inflammatory cells and irregular central veins in the MoS2 NSs-treated mouse liver. Meanwhile, the overwhelming expressions of inflammatory cytokines, dyslipidemia, and dysregulated hepatic lipid metabolism implied the potential vascular toxicity of MoS2 NSs. Indeed, our result supported that MoS2 NSs exposure is highly associated with atherosclerotic progression. This study provided the first line of evidence on the vascular toxicity of MoS2 NSs, which remind scientists to pay attention to the rational use of MoS2 NSs, especially in the biomedical fields.

Abstract
The increasing application of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) unavoidably leads to environmental release and biological exposure. Understanding the potential hazards of ENMs on crops is essential for appropriate utilization and management. Herein, rice seedlings were hydroponically exposed to molybdenum sulfide (MoS2, a typical ENM) nanosheets at 5-20 mg/L for 7 days and then depurated for another 7 days in a fresh culture medium. Exposure to MoS2 triggered irreversible reductions in root length (by 26.3%-69.9%) and tip number (by 22.2%-66.0%). Integration of biochemical assays, transcriptomic and metabolomics found that oxidative stress induced by MoS2 in roots was persistent, whereas the activation of aquaporins, ionic transportation, and energy synthesis was normalized due to the recovery of nutrient uptake. The down-regulated levels of genes and metabolites associated with peroxidases, hemicellulose synthesis, expansins, and auxins caused persistent structural damages (sclerosis and rupture) of root cell walls. Approximately 64.5%-84.8% of internalized MoS2 nanosheets were degraded, and the successive up-regulation of genes encoding cytochrome P450s and glutathione S-transferases reflected the biotransformation and detoxification of MoS2 in the depuration period. These findings provide novel insights into the persistence and recovery of MoS2 phytotoxicity, which will help advance the risk assessment of MoS2 application on environment.

Abstract
Thorough investigations of the environmental fate and risks are necessary for the safe application of engineered nanomaterials. Nevertheless, the current understanding of potential transformations of MoS2 (an intensively studied two-dimensional nanosheet) upon interactions with ubiquitous environmentally relevant thiols (ERTs) in water is limited. This study revealed that two ERTs, l-cysteine and mercaptoacetic acid, could modify MoS2 by covalently grafting thiol groups on S atoms of 1T phases, improving the colloidal persistence and chemical stability of MoS2. Compared with the pristine form, MoS2-thiols with higher dispersity exhibited significantly mitigated envelopment and ultrastructural damage to microalgae. MoS2-triggered growth inhibition, upregulation of reactive oxygen species, photosynthetic injury, and metabolic perturbation in algae were remarkably attenuated by ERTs. The diminished capability for MoS2 to generate reactive intermediates and glutathione oxidation driven by ERTs caused the weakness of oxidative stress and negative effects. Additionally, molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that ERTs altered the extent of the influence of MoS2 on the secondary structures and functions of adsorbed intracellular proteins, which also contributed to the lower phytotoxicity of MoS2. Our findings provide evidence for the crucial role of specific organic ligands in the risk of MoS2 in aquatic environments.

Abstract
Bacterial infections are yet another serious threat to human health. Misuse or overuse of conventional antibiotics has led to the arrival of various super resistant bacteria along with many serious side effects to human body. In this exigent circumstance, the use of nanomaterial based antibacterial agents is one of the most appropriate solutions to fight against bacteria thereby causing an inhibition to bacterial proliferation. Recent studies show that, due to the large surface area, high biocompatibility, strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption and low cytotoxicity, molybdenum disulphide (MoS2), an extraordinary member in the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is extensively explored in the obliteration of many drug resistant bacteria, photothermal therapy and drug delivery. MoS2 based nanomaterials can effectively prevent bacterial growth through many mechanisms. Through this review, we have tried to provide an inclusive knowledge on the recent progress of antibacterial studies in MoS2 based nanomaterials including MoS2 nanosheets, nanoflowers, quantum dot (QD), hybrid nanocomposites and polymer nanocomposites. Moreover, toxicity of MoS2 based nanomaterials is described at the end of the review.
