Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease. Microneedle (MN) patches can improve psoriasis treatment outcomes by increasing local drug content in the skin. As frequently relapses, developing intelligent MN-based delivery systems with prolonged therapeutic levels and improved efficiency of great significance. Here, we designed detachable H2O2-responsive gel-based MN containing methotrexate (MTX) epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) using EGCG as both cross-linkers for needle-composited materials anti-inflammatory drugs. The MNs had dual-mode release kinetics, which quickly released MTX diffusively sustainably way.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by skin inflammation, barrier dysfunction, and chronic pruritus. As the anti-interleukin-4 (IL-4) receptor α antibody dupilumab improves all three cardinal features of AD, type 2 cytokines IL-4 especially IL-13 have been indicated to pathogenic significance in AD. Accumulating evidence has shown that function regulated via competition between aryl hydrocarbon (AHR) axis (up-regulation barrier) IL-13/IL-4‒JAK‒STAT6/STAT3 (down-regulation barrier). This latter also induces oxidative stress, which exacerbates inflammation. Conventional recently developed agents for treating AD such as steroid, calcineurin inhibitors, cyclosporine, dupilumab, JAK inhibitors inhibit axis, while older remedies coal tar glyteer are antioxidative AHR agonists.
