Notwithstanding the rapid advancements in microneedle research, the applications of multicomponent crystals (MCCs) within microneedle drug delivery landscape remain largely underexplored. This study aimed at integrating crystal engineering with powder-carrying microneedle technology to overcome the current therapeutic obstacles in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Kopexil (KPX), a minoxidil analog for AGA treatment, was successfull...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become a leading causative pathogen of nosocomial pneumonia with an alarming in-hospital mortality rate of 30%. Last resort antibiotic, vancomycin, has been increasingly used to treat MRSA infections, but the rapid emergence of vancomycin-resistant strains urges the development of alternative treatment strategies against MRSA-associated pneumonia. The bacteriolytic enzyme,...
