Currently, the clinical drugs for Parkinson's disease (PD) only focus on motor symptoms, while non-motor symptoms like depression are usually neglected. Even though, the efficacy of existing neurotherapeutic drugs is extremely poor which is due to the blood brain barrier (BBB). Therefore, a biomimetic polydopamine carbon dots (PDA C-dots) at 2-4 nm was synthesized, while exosomes from macrophages were applied to encapsulate PDA C-dots for improving their BBB-crossing ability and inflammation-targeting effect.

- Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) face challenges like polysulfide shuttling and lithium dendrite formation, but the introduction of a high-entropy MXene (TiVCrMoCT) doped with graphene is aimed at improving performance.
- This modified coating enhances lithium diffusion, provides effective polysulfide adsorption, and promotes uniform lithium deposition, leading to better nucleation and dissolution kinetics.
- The results show that this innovative approach allows for a high capacity retention rate after extensive cycling, operates at low potential, and maintains efficiency even under high sulfur loading, suggesting a promising path for commercially viable LSBs.
