Purpose. The purpose of this study was to design and fabricate arrays of solid microneedles and insert them into the skin of diabetic hairless rats for transdermal delivery of insulin to lower blood glucose level.

At high levels as seen in diabetes, glucose reacts with and forms adducts (advanced glycation end products; AGEs) on macromolecules including proteins and DNA, eliciting cellular dysfunction and leading to vascular disease. The major means is through cellular receptors; the best characterized is the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE). Accumulation of both AGE/RAGE in addition to other...
