Recent research has highlighted the pivotal role of lipoxygenases in modulating ferroptosis and immune responses by catalyzing the generation of lipid peroxides. However, the limitations associated with protein enzymes, such as poor stability, low bioavailability, and high production costs, have motivated researchers to explore biomimetic materials with lipoxygenase-like activity. Here, we report the discovery of lipoxygenase-like two-dimensional (2D) MoS2nanosheets capable of catalyzing lipid peroxidation and inducing ferroptosis. The resulting catalytic products were successfully identified using mass spectrometry and a luminescent substrate. Unlike native lipoxygenases, MoS2 nanosheets exhibited exceptional catalytic activity at extreme pH, high temperature, high ionic strength, and organic solvent conditions. Structure-activity relationship analysis indicates that sulfur atomic vacancy sites on MoS2 nanosheets are responsible for their catalytic activity. Furthermore, the lipoxygenase-like activity of MoS2 nanosheets was demonstrated within mammalian cells and animal tissues, inducing distinctive ferroptotic cell death. In summary, this research introduces an alternative to lipoxygenase to regulate lipid peroxidation in cells, offering a promising avenue for ferroptosis induction.

From the rediscovery of graphene in 2004, the interest in layered graphene analogs has been exponentially growing through various fields of science. Due to their unique properties, novel two-dimensional family of materials and especially transition metal dichalcogenides are promising for development of advanced materials of unprecedented functions. Progress in 2D materials synthesis paved the way for the studies on their hybridization with other materials to create functional composites, whose electronic, physical or chemical properties can be engineered for special applications. In this review we focused on recent progress in graphene-based and MoS2 hybrid nanostructures. We summarized and discussed various fabrication approaches and mentioned different 2D and 3D structures of composite materials with emphasis on their advances for electroanalytical chemistry. The major part of this review provides a comprehensive overview of the application of graphene-based materials and MoS2 composites in the fields of electrochemical sensors and biosensors.
There is an assortment of layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), about 40 reported compounds, each with its unique polymorph and properties. Group 4 TMD, titanium disulfide (TiS2), possess high electronic conductivity and light weight amongst other attractive features. In consideration for electrochemical and thermoelectrical applications, doping is a promising approach to enhance its practicability. The introduction of foreign atoms or compositional variance may improve existing properties or grant access to new ones. Moving away from the more intensively studied and successfully doped group 6 MoS2 and WS2, TiS2 is doped with varying levels of niobium (Nb) via controlled heating of stoichiometric amounts to yield Ti1-xNbxS2 where x = 0.05, 0.1, 0.2. Structural effects are discussed together with two doping parameters, nature and concentration of dopant. Characterisation data reveal retention of 1T-phase polymorph despite formation of TiS3 nanobelts upon doping. Fundamental electrochemical properties such as heterogenous electron transfer rates and its charge transfer resistance are compared amongst the materials of interest. A selective and sensitive 2nd generation electrochemical biosensor is prepared using Ti0.95Nb0.05S2/GOx/GTA since it is the most superior material in glucose detection.
