Microneedle systems (MNs) loading living cells are a powerful platform to treat various previously incurable diseases in the era of precision medicine. Herein, an overview of recent advances in MN-based strategies for cell delivery is summarized, including material selection, design of morphological structures, and processing methods. We also systematically outlined the law of microstructural design relative to the structure-effective/function relationship in transdermal delivery or precision medicine and the design principles of cell microneedle (CMN).

Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic, complex inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that presents significant therapeutic challenges. Despite the availability of a wide range of treatments, many patients experience primary non-response, secondary loss of response, or adverse events, limiting the overall effectiveness of current therapies. Clinical trials often report response rates below 60%, partly due to stringent inclusion criteria.

Electronic address:

Without careful dissection of the ways in which biases can be encoded into artificial intelligence (AI) health technologies, there is a risk of perpetuating existing health inequalities at scale. One major source of bias is the data that underpins such technologies. The STANDING Together recommendations aim to encourage transparency regarding limitations of health datasets and proactive evaluation of their effect across population groups.
