Novel Carbon Dots Nanomaterials for the Precision Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Mechanisms and Applications
Abstract
Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and its severe manifestation, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), represent critical clinical challenges characterized by diffuse alveolar damage, uncontrolled inflammatory storms, and oxidative stress. Despite supportive therapies such as mechanical ventilation have advanced considerably, mortality rates remain persistently high. Over the past five years, Carbon Dots (CDs)-a novel class of zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterials-have demonstrated significant potential for the precision theranostics of ALI/ARDS due to their ultra-small size (
