Abstract
Hydrogels have excellent swelling properties and have been widely applied in tissue engineering because of their similarity to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Sodium alginate (SA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) were prepared into hydrogel microspheres with Ca2+crosslinking in our study. The morphology, inner structure, mechanical properties, water content, swelling rate and BMP-2 loading and releasing properties were characterized. Our results showed that the composite SA /CMCS hydrogel microspheres were translucent and spherical in shape with uniform particle size. The incorporation of CMCS further increased the diameters of the microspheres, internal pore structure, water content, and mechanical properties of the SA/CMCS hydrogel microspheres. At the same SA concentration, with the increase of CMSC concentration, the diameter of microspheres could be increased by about 0.4 mm, the water content can be increased about 1%-2%. As for the mechanical properties, the compressive strength can be increased by 0.04-0.1 MPa, and the modulus of elasticity can be increased by 0.1-0.15 MPa. BMP-2 was chosen as a model agent and it could be loaded into SA/CMCS microspheres, and the incorporation of CMCS increased BMP-2 loading. The encapsulated BMP-2 was sustainably releasedin vitro. The leaching solutions of the SA/CMCS hydrogel microspheres exhibited good cytocompatibility and could increase ALP activity, ALP expression, and biomineralization on MC3T3-E1 cells. After 7 d of co-culture, ALP activities in S2.5C2 and S2.5C3 groups was increased by 50% and 45% compared with that of the control group. When embedded in the SA/CMCS microspheres, the MC3T3-E1 cells were evenly distributed inside the hydrogel microspheres and remained viable. Transcriptomic studies showed that incorporation of CMCS induced upregulation of 1141 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and downregulation of 1614 DEGs compared with SA microspheres. The most significantly enriched pathways were the Wnt and MAPK signaling pathways induced by the incorporation of CMCS and BMP-2. In conclusion, our results indicated that the physiochemical characteristics of the SA hydrogel microspheres could be greatly modulated by CMCS to better mimic the ECM microenvironment and induce osteo-inductive activities of MC3T3-E1 cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is estimated that there are over 200 million people living with diabetes mellitus (DM) all over the world. It is a metabolic condition caused by decreased insulin action or secretion. Diabetes Mellitus is also known as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus are the two most common types of DM. Treatment for type 1 diabetes often consists of insulin replacement therapy, while treatment for type 2 diabetes typically consists of oral hypoglycemics. OBJECTIVES Conventional dosing schedules for the vast majority of these medications come with a number of drawbacks, the most common of which are frequent dosing, a short half-life, and low bioavailability. Thus, innovative and regulated oral hypoglycemic medication delivery methods have been developed to reduce the limitations of standard dose forms. METHODS The studies and reviews published under the title were looked up in several databases (including PubMed, Elsevier, and Google Scholar). RESULTS Hydrogels made from biopolymers are three-dimensional polymeric networks that can be physically or chemically crosslinked. These networks are based on natural polymers and have an inherent hydrophilic quality because of the functional groups they contain. They have a very high affinity for biological fluids in addition to a high water content, softness, flexibility, permeability, and biocompatibility. The fact that these features are similar to those of a wide variety of soft living tissues paves the way for several potentials in the field of biomedicine. In this sense, hydrogels offer excellent platforms for the transport of medications and the controlled release of those drugs. Additionally, biopolymer-based hydrogels can be put as coatings on medical implants in order to improve the biocompatibility of the implants and to prevent medical diseases. CONCLUSION The current review focuses on the most recent advancements made in the field of using biopolymeric hydrogels that are physically and chemically crosslinked, in addition to hydrogel coatings, for the purpose of providing sustained drug release of oral hypoglycemics and avoiding problems that are associated with the traditional dosage forms of oral hypoglycemics.

Abstract
Glucose-responsive insulins (GRIs) use plasma glucose levels in a diabetic patient to activate a specifically designed insulin analogue to a more potent state in real time. Alternatively, some GRI concepts use glucose-mediated release or injection of insulin into the bloodstream. GRIs hold promise to exhibit much improved pharmacological control of the plasma glucose concentration, particularly for the problem of therapeutically induced hypoglycemia. Several innovative GRI schemes are introduced into the literature, but there remains a dearth of quantitative analysis to aid the development and optimization of these constructs into effective therapeutics. This work evaluates several classes of GRIs that are proposed using a pharmacokinetic model as previously described, PAMERAH, simulating the glucoregulatory system of humans and rodents. GRI concepts are grouped into three mechanistic classes: 1) intrinsic GRIs, 2) glucose-responsive particles, and 3) glucose-responsive devices. Each class is analyzed for optimal designs that maintain glucose levels within the euglycemic range. These derived GRI parameter spaces are then compared between rodents and humans, providing the differences in clinical translation success for each candidate. This work demonstrates a computational framework to evaluate the potential clinical translatability of existing glucose-responsive systems, providing a useful approach for future GRI development.

Abstract
Chitosan is a natural polymer with acceptable biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical stability; hence, it has been widely appraised for drug and gene delivery applications. However, there has been no comprehensive assessment to tailor-make chitosan cross-linkers of various types and functionalities as well as complex chitosan-based semi- and full-interpenetrating networks for drug delivery systems (DDSs). Herein, various fabrication methods developed for chitosan hydrogels are deliberated, including chitosan crosslinking with and without diverse cross-linkers. Tripolyphosphate, genipin and multi-functional aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and epoxides are common cross-linkers used in developing biomedical chitosan for DDSs. Methods deployed for modifying the properties and performance of chitosan hydrogels, via their composite production (semi- and full-interpenetrating networks), are also cogitated here. In addition, recent advances in the fabrication of advanced chitosan hydrogels for drug delivery applications such as oral drug delivery, transdermal drug delivery, and cancer therapy are discussed. Lastly, thoughts on what is needed for the chitosan field to continue to grow is also debated in this comprehensive review article.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most challenging threats to global public health. To improve the therapy efficacy of antidiabetic drugs, numerous drug delivery systems have been developed. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a polymeric family sharing the same skeleton but with different molecular weights which is considered as a promising material for drug delivery. In the delivery of antidiabetic drugs, PEG captures much attention in the designing and preparation of sustainable and controllable release systems due to its unique features including hydrophilicity, biocompatibility and biodegradability. Due to the unique architecture, PEG molecules are also able to shelter delivery systems to decrease their immunogenicity and avoid undesirable enzymolysis. PEG has been applied in plenty of delivery systems such as micelles, vesicles, nanoparticles and hydrogels. In this review, we summarized several commonly used PEG-contained antidiabetic drug delivery systems and emphasized the advantages of stimuli-responsive function in these sustainable and controllable formations.

Abstract
Insulin therapy plays an essential role in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. However, frequent injections required to effectively control the glycemic levels lead to substantial inconvenience and low patient compliance. In order to improve insulin delivery, many efforts have been made, such as developing the nanoparticles (NPs)-based release systems and oral insulin. Although some improvements have been achieved, the ultimate results are still unsatisfying and none of insulin-loaded NPs systems have been approved for clinical use so far. Recently, nano‒protein interactions and protein corona formation have drawn much attention due to their negative influence on the in vivo fate of NPs systems. As the other side of a coin, such interactions can also be used for constructing advanced drug delivery systems. Herein, we aim to provide an insight into the advance and flaws of various NPs-based insulin delivery systems. Particularly, an interesting discussion on nano‒protein interactions and its potentials for developing novel insulin delivery systems is initiated. Insulin therapy plays essential roles in treating diabetes. Optimizing insulin delivery enhances insulin therapy. Nanoparticles are promising systems for delivery of insulin. Nano-protein interactions influence the delivery of nanoparticles. Nano-protein interactions can be used for advanced delivery of insulin.

Abstract
Different hydrogels of poly(acrylamide-co-3-acrylamido phenylboronic acid-co-chitosan grafted maleic acid) (P(AM-co-AAPBA-co-CSMA)s) were synthesized using poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) as a crosslinker to serve for glucose sensing and insulin delivery. The structure and morphology of the hydrogels, named as CSPBA were studied by FTIR and SEM, while the mechanical properties were tested using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and universal testing machine. The prepared hydrogels shrinked at low glucose concentration due to the 2:1 boronate-glucose binding, and swelled at high glucose concentration because of 1:1 boronate-glucose complexation. Both binding mechanisms are useful for glucose sensing and insulin delivery. The integration of CSMA into hydrogels network not only enhanced the response to glucose at physiological pH, but also improved the mechanical properties and increased the encapsulation efficiency of the prepared hydrogels. These CSPBA may find potential as implantable hydrogels in applications were continuous glucose monitoring and controlled release is beneficial.

Abstract
Type 1 and advanced type 2 diabetes treatment involves daily injections or continuous infusion of exogenous insulin aimed at regulating blood glucose levels in the normoglycemic range. However, current options for insulin therapy are limited by the risk of hypoglycemia and are associated with suboptimal glycemic control outcomes. Therefore, a range of glucose-responsive components that can undergo changes in conformation or show alterations in intermolecular binding capability in response to glucose stimulation has been studied for ultimate integration into closed-loop insulin delivery or "smart insulin" systems. Here, an overview of the evolution and recent progress in the development of molecular approaches for glucose-responsive insulin delivery systems, a rapidly growing subfield of precision medicine, is presented. Three central glucose-responsive moieties, including glucose oxidase, phenylboronic acid, and glucose-binding molecules are examined in detail. Future opportunities and challenges regarding translation are also discussed.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus has become one of the biggest medical challenges affecting millions of people globally. Alternative treatments for diabetes are currently being intensively investigated to improve the treatment efficacy and life qualities for diabetic patients. Glucose-responsive insulin release (GRIR) systems have exhibited tremendous potential to improve the normal glycemic control and to reduce the incidence of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, which further reduces potential complications in diabetic patients. In a given GRIR drug formulation, accuracy, response time, and reversibility of the GRIR functions are three key features enabling potential seamless control of blood glucose level. Nevertheless, there is significant challenge preventing current GRIR formulations from achieving them. This review article analyzes the most updated literature and provides insights on the impact of GRIR mechanisms, and formulations on these key features, and the relevant in vitro and in vivo evaluation methods to test these functions.

Glucose Oxidase-Based Glucose-Sensitive Drug Delivery for Diabetes Treatment. Polymers (Basel) 2017; 9:polym9070255.

Abstract
The glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems based on glucose oxidase (GOD), which exhibit highly promising applications in diabetes therapy, have attracted much more interest in recent years. The self-regulated drug delivery systems regulate drug release by glucose concentration automatically and continuously to control the blood glucose level (BGL) in normoglycemic state. This review covers the recent advances at the developments of GOD-based glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems and their in vivo applications for diabetes treatment. The applications of GOD-immobilized platforms, such as self-assembly layer-by-layer (LbL) films and polymer vesicles, cross-linking hydrogels and microgels, hybrid mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and microdevices fabricated with insulin reservoirs have been surveyed. The glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems based on GOD are expected to be a typical candidate for smart platforms for potential applications in diabetes therapy.
