Chronic local inflammation and excessive cell apoptosis in nucleus pulposus (NP) tissue are the main causes of intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Stimuli-responsive hydrogels have great potential treatment IDD by facilitating localized controlled drug delivery. Herein, an injectable drug-loaded dual stimuli-responsive adhesive hydrogel for microenvironmental regulation IDD, is developed. The gelatin methacryloyl functionalized with phenylboronic acid groups to enhance loading capacity enable behavior, while incorporation oxidized hyaluronic further improves properties. prepared exhibits enhanced diol-containing drugs, pH- reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive behaviors, excellent radical scavenging efficiency, potent antibacterial activity, favorable biocompatibility. Furthermore, shows a beneficial protective efficacy on NP cells within vitro oxidative stress microenvironment. vivo results demonstrate hydrogel's therapeutic effect treating maintaining water retention, restoring height, promoting regeneration, indicating that this holds as promising approach regulating microenvironment alleviating progression IDD.
