Background Clindamycin hydrochloride, a first-line antibiotic for acne treatment, faces challenges with poor skin penetration due to its hydrophilicity and the barrier posed by stratum corneum. To address this limitation, we developed gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel-based biodegradable microneedles (GM-Clin-MN) sustained intradermal drug delivery, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy. Methods The microneedle patches loaded 1 wt% clindamycin hydrochloride were fabricated using PDMS molds characterized through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), fluorescence microscopy. Drug loading release assessed UV-Vis at 520 nm, while mechanical strength was evaluated universal testing machine. Skin tested on ex vivo rat abdominal skin. Biosafety determined human fibroblast (HSF) cytotoxicity hen’s egg test-chorioallantoic membrane (HET-CAM) irritation tests. Antibacterial efficacy against Cutibacterium acnes ( C. ) measured via colony counting. In treatment of in model. Gross morphological changes, histological sections, immunohistochemical staining used evaluate potential mechanisms treatment. Results hydrochloride-loaded GelMA achieved 0.49 ± 0.025 μg/needle, exhibiting rapid Day (54.8% 2.1%) 10 (72.1% 1.5%). penetrated depth 658 66 μm, swelled 185.4% 12.1%, completely dissolved within min. GM-Clin-MN displayed no or effectively inhibited growth (bacterial inhibition rate 100%). studies revealed that acne-related inflammation suppressed anti-scarring properties, reduced pro-inflammatory IL-1β levels, increased anti-inflammatory IL-10 expression, diminished MMP-2 activity — key enzyme collagen overproduction during scarring. Conclusion enables sustained, minimally invasive delivery corneum, offering dual-action strategy combines potent antibacterial modulation management.

Phytochemicals, which are predominantly found in plants, hold substantial medicinal value. Despite their potential, challenges such as poor oral bioavailability and instability the gastrointestinal tract have limited therapeutic use. Traditional intra/transdermal drug delivery systems offer some advantages over administration but still suffer from issues penetration depth, slow release rates, inconsistent absorption. In contrast, microneedles (MNs) represent a significant advancement by providing precise control phytochemical enhanced capabilities. By circumventing skin barriers, MNs directly access dermal layers rich blood vessels lymphatics, thus facilitating efficient delivery. This review extensively discusses obstacles of traditional benefits routes with particular focus on transformative potential for explores complexities delivering phytochemicals through routes, development types innovative tools, optimal design properties effective Additionally, this examines versatile applications MN-mediated delivery, including its role administering phytophotosensitizers photodynamic therapy, concludes insights into relevant patents future perspectives.
