Abstract

As a new type of 2D material, MXene has received extensive attention in recent years. With the excellent superior physical and chemical properties, including a substantial specific surface area and flexible and adaptable surface functional groups, MXene can be compounded with hydrogel to form MXene hydrogel. This article systematically reviews the recent progress of MXene hydrogels in medical diagnosis and treatment in latest years, and describes the basic properties of MXene and MXene hydrogels in related fields. The focus is on the cutting-edge applications of MXene-based hydrogels in four areas: drug delivery, photothermal therapy, biosensing, and tissue repair. At the same time, an overview of its limitations in various fields is given, focusing on the uncertainty of long-term safety in vivo, the lack of clinical trials, instability in the face of complex environments, and the low level of photothermal conversion efficiency. Finally, this article discusses the challenges and prospective applications of MXene-based hydrogels in practical contexts, addressing existing obstacles to unlock their capabilities in clinical and biomedical fields.
