Abstract

MXene, as a new two-dimensional nanomaterial, is endowed with lots of particular properties, such as large surface area, excellent conductivity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, hydrophilicity, antibacterial activity, and so on. In the past few years, MXene nanomaterials have become a rising star in biomedical fields including biological imaging, tumor diagnosis, biosensor, and tissue engineering. In this review, we sum up the recent applications of MXene nanomaterials in the field of tissue engineering and regeneration. First, we briefly introduced the synthesis and surface modification engineering of MXene. Then we focused on the application and development of MXene and MXene-based composites in skin, bone, nerve and heart tissue engineering. Uniquely, we also paid attention to some research on MXene with few achievements at present but might become a new trend in tissue engineering and regeneration in the future. Finally, this paper will also discuss several challenges faced by MXene nanomaterials in the clinical application of tissue engineering.

Keywords: MXene; bone repair; tissue engineering; tissue regeneration; wound healing.
