results showed that MNs@GI effectively regulated glycemic levels within the normal range for approximately 10 h compared to that of only insulin-loaded microneedles (MNs@INS). Consequently, the highly insulin-loaded, multi-responsive, and pH-triggered MN system has tremendous potential for diabetes treatment.
