Article Abstract

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) have become a major challenge in global public health due to neurotoxicity caused by progressive neuronal degeneration and abnormal protein aggregation, which has attracted widespread attention. Graphene-based nanomaterials provide innovative solutions for the early diagnosis and precise treatment of NDDs by virtue of their ultra-high conductivity, large specific surface area and multifunctional properties. In this paper, we systematically discuss the key applications of these materials in the diagnosis and treatment of NDDs, and deeply analyze the technological breakthroughs and clinical translation challenges. The core of this paper is to illustrate that graphene-based nanomaterials are expected to reshape the paradigm of NDDs diagnosis and treatment through cross-scale technological innovations, promoting the synergistic development of early diagnosis, personalized treatment and real-time monitoring, and providing a transformative strategy for overcoming NDDs.

Graphene-based nanomaterials have transformed biomedical applications due to their exceptional physicochemical properties, and nitrogen (N)-doping further enhances the electrocatalytic activity of graphene. Driven by the demand for safer and more sustainable nanomaterials, in this work, we compared eco-friendly produced - doped graphene (bD) with conventionally synthesized - doped graphene (cD) in three different cell lines. Across all cell types and assays, cD was more toxic than bD.

Corrosion can severely degrade surfaces and materials, impacting both functionality and safety. Laser-induced graphene (LIG) offers substantial corrosion resistance, making it an ideal material for protecting metals, such as carbon steel. This study developed adhesive, corrosion-resistant LIG patches on polyimide (PI) layers, enhanced with an alkyd resin coating, and applied to pretreated aluminum surfaces.

The thermophysical properties of novel Graphene/MXene-based fluids have great potential for enhancing the efficiency of solar energy systems. However, optimizing these properties remains challenging due to the complex interactions between nanomaterial composition and system conditions. This study presents a new hybrid framework that combines response surface methodology (RSM), heuristic and metaheuristic optimization, and advanced decision-making techniques to enhance the thermal conductivity (TC) and dynamic viscosity (DV) of these fluids.
