Eczema is a common chronic dermatological disease.Conventional treatments exhibit limited efficacy due to fast drug release resulting in short-term relief.Development of a new treatment strategy that enables sustained drug release and long-term maintenance on the skin surface is necessary.A self-adhesive swelling microneedle patch(SDSMNs)was designed and constructed using a two-step casting method.The adhesive substrate was prepared by blending gelatin and dopamine via oxidation of NaIO4,so it could adhere onto the skin surface as well as withstand repeated bending movement without detachment.The swelling needles were fabricated using polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)and polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP),which could swell by absorbing interstitial fluid and release the drug in a controlled manner.SDSMNs also showed desirable anti-bacterial activities toward E.coli and S.aureus.The adhesive microneedles loaded with matrine(MAT-SDSMNs),an anti-inflammatory Chinese medicine,dramatically relieved eczema symptoms through IL-17 mediated inflammation responses.The use of MAT-SDSMNs significantly decreased the infiltration of inflammation cells and level of inflammatory cytokines,reduced the skin thickness,and increased collagen deposition fraction compared with conventional ointment or subcutaneous injection.The results suggested that MAT-SDSMNs can improve eczema treatment by regulating the local inflammatory microenvironment,providing a simple,self-administered sustainable strategy for eczema treatment.
