Toward precision medicine: End-to-end design and construction of integrated microneedle-based theranostic systems.

With the growing demand for precision medicine and advancements in microneedle technology, microneedle-based drug delivery systems have evolved into integrated theranostic platforms. However, the development of these systems is currently limited by the absence of clear conclusions and standardized construction strategies. The end-to-end concept offers an innovative approach to theranostic systems by creating a seamless process that integrates target sampling, sensing, analysis, and on-demand drug delivery.

Glycosaminoglycans' Ability to Promote Wound Healing: From Native Living Macromolecules to Artificial Biomaterials.

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are important for the occurrence of signaling molecules and maintenance of microenvironment within the extracellular matrix (ECM) in living tissues. GAGs and GAG-based biomaterial approaches have been widely explored to promote in situ tissue regeneration and repair by regulating the wound microenvironment, accelerating re-epithelialization, and controlling ECM remodeling. However, most approaches remain unacceptable for clinical applications.
