A thrombin-responsive microneedle-based transcutaneous patch is developed by C. M. Gallippi, Y. Zhu, Z. Gu, and co-workers, as demonstrated in article 1604043. The anticoagulant drug heparin is loaded into the hyaluronic acid needles through a thrombin cleavable peptide linker. This heparin patch can sense the thrombin level in blood vessels and autoregulate blood coagulation in a long-term manner. Cover design credit: Yuqi Zhang.
