Abstract

This paper details the development of a heat responsive liposome loaded hydrogel for the controlled release of pro-angiogenic therapeutics. Lysolipid-based thermosensitive liposomes (LTSLs) embedded in a chitosan-based thermoresponsive hydrogel matrix represents a novel approach for the spatiotemporal release of therapeutic agents. This hydrogel platform demonstrates remarkable flexibility in terms of drug scheduling and sequencing, enabling the release of multiple agents and the ability to control drug dosing in a minimally invasive fashion. The possibility to tune the release kinetics of different drugs independently represents an innovative platform to utilise for a variety of treatments. This approach allows a significant degree of flexibility in achieving a desired release profile via a minimally invasive stimulus, enabling treatments to be tuned in response to changing symptoms and complications.
