Abstract

Delayed or non-healing of diabetic wounds is a significant complication, often attributed to high glucose-induced M1 macrophage accumulation, impaired angiogenesis, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) buildup. Addressing this, we introduced a strontium polyphenol network microneedle patch (SrC-MPNs@MN-PP) for percutaneous drug delivery. This patch, formulated with polymer poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA) and epsilon-poly-l-lysine (ε-PLL), incorporates strontium polyphenol networks (SrC-MPNs). The release of chlorogenic acid (CGA) from SrC-MPNs not only neutralizes ROS, but strontium ions also foster angiogenesis. Consequently, SrC-MPNs@MN-PP can ameliorate the diabetic wound microenvironment and expedite healing.
