Stimuli-responsive therapeutic systems for the treatment of diabetic infected wounds.

Diabetic wound infection is a common disease that has significantly reduced people's quality of life. Although tremendous achievements have been made in clinical treatment, the crucial challenge in diabetic infected wound management stems from the detrimental diabetic wound environment and the emergence of bacterial resistance after long-term medication, which result in a reduced efficacy, an increased dosage of medication, and severe side effects. To tackle these issues, it is of great significance to develop an innovative treatment strategy for diabetic wound infection therapy. Currently, the exploitation of nanobiomaterial-based therapeutic systems for diabetic infected wounds is booming, and therapeutic systems with a stimuli-responsive performance have received extensive attention. These therapeutic systems are able to accelerate diabetic infected wound healing due to the on-demand release of therapeutic agents in diabetic infected wounds in response to stimulating factors. Based on the characteristics of diabetic infected wounds, many endogenous stimuli-responsive (
