Abstract:

Two-dimensional (2D) inorganic materials, as a class of inorganic ultrathin nanosheets with single or several atomic layers, exhibit high specific surface area, high electrical conductivity and/or photothermal conversion efficiency. These unique physicochemical properties confer procoagulant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant biological effects. In recent years, in view of degradation and metabolism issues, these materials have been explored for modulation of diseased skin tissues, such as full-thickness wounds, burns and diabetic wounds, demonstrating remarkable effects in accelerating wound healing, alleviating infections and improving the inflammatory microenvironment. This review focuses on the unique structure and biological effects of 2D inorganic materials, systematically describes their applications in wound healing and related mechanisms, and looks forward to current challenges and prospects of 2D inorganic materials in the field of skin repair.

Key words: two-dimensional inorganic material, skin repair, microenvironmental regulation, review
