Abstract

In article number 1603028, by Zhen Gu and co-workers, an insulin-responsive glucagon delivery device based on a microneedle (MN)-array patch is developed. Utilizing hyperinsulinemia as a dangerous signal, this “smart glucagon patch” can release glucagon to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia during diabetes management.
