MXenes, a novel class of two-dimensional materials, have recently emerged as promising candidates for biomedical applications due to their specific structural features and exceptional physicochemical and biological properties. These materials, characterized by unique structural features and superior conductivity, have applications in tissue engineering, cancer detection and therapy, sensing, imaging, drug delivery, wound treatment, antimicrobial therapy, and medical implantation. Additionally, MXene-based composites, incorporating polymers, metals, carbon nanomaterials, and metal oxides, offer enhanced electroactive and mechanical properties, making them highly suitable for engineering electroactive organs such as the heart, skeletal muscle, and nerves.

Hypertension, a globally prevalent condition, is closely associated with T cell-mediated inflammatory responses. Studies have shown that T cells, by secreting pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), Interleukin-17 (IL-17), and Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), directly lead to vascular dysfunction and elevated blood pressure. The activation of Th1 and Th17 cell subsets, along with the dysfunction of regulatory T cells (Tregs), is a critical mechanism in the onset and progression of hypertension.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an autoimmune disease with an incompletely understood pathogenesis. The Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway plays a key role in immune response and inflammation. More and more studies demonstrated that JAK/STAT signaling pathway is associated with the pathogenesis of UC.

Regulatory T (Treg) cells are essential for maintaining immune homeostasis by suppressing excessive immune responses. In the context of cancer, however, Tregs promote immune evasion and tumor progression, particularly through their unique adaptations within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Recent research has emphasized how metabolic characteristics shape Treg activation, migration, and immunosuppressive function, revealing the impact of metabolic pathways on Treg fitness in homeostasis and within the TME.

Background: Fulminant myocarditis (FM) is a critical manifestation of myocarditis. However, the clinical features and risk factors associated with its adverse outcomes are not fully understood. Given the high mortality and potential for long-term complications, it is crucial to identify factors that could predict the progression of FM to chronic persistent myocarditis.
