In this work, we developed a novel microneedle-based delivery system (MNDS) distinguished by its distinctive multifunctional hydrogels and a “Tripartite Delivery” mechanism. The MNDS was designed with a bionic mushroom-shaped multilayered structure. Upon application, the MNDS enabled an initial rapid release and sustained release of the encapsulated nanocomplexes (ASO@GP-SiNPs). The needle body layer hydrogels can respond to hyaluronidase and continuously release hyaluronic acid and <em>ε</em>-polylysine for several days. These ASO@GP-SiNPs were effectively uptaken by <em>E. coli</em> (46.4 %) and <em>S. aureus</em> (37.1 %), subsequently releasing ASOs that target the <em>acpP</em> and <em>ftsZ</em> genes to effectively eliminate bacteria. The system exhibits significant antibacterial activity and effectively inhibits biofilm formation, while also inducing the polarization of macrophages toward an M2-like phenotype.

To enhance the retention of radiosensitizers at tumor sites and thereby amplify their radiosensitizing effects, a novel nanoparticle aggregation platform (DH&UH NPs) responsive to second near-infrared light was developed, integrating radiosensitization and biological imaging functionalities. The platform is comprised of hyaluronic acid derivatives modified lanthanide-doped down-conversion nanoparticles (DH NPs) and lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UH NPs). Under 980 nm laser irradiation, UH NPs efficiently generate UV light, which induces a tramsformation of the hydroxyl groups on the surface-bound NB molecules of the UH NPs into aldehyde groups. The aldehyde groups would react with the amino groups on UH NPs and the hydrazine groups of DH NPs, forming stable nanoparticle aggregates. This innovative design not only prolongs the duration of tumor imaging but also ensures sustained retention of the radiosensitizer at the tumor site. Furthermore, the organic diselenide bond in HA derivatives, serving as a radiosensitizer, generated abundant reactive oxygen species under X-ray radiation, thereby significantly enhancing the radiosensitization effect.
