May 2026 in “European Cells and Materials” The study presents a novel hyaluronic acid-based biphasic delivery platform for Huperzine A (HupA), aimed at improving Alzheimer's disease management. This system encapsulates HupA-loaded polyhydroxyalkanoate nanoparticles within a HA gel matrix, achieving complete drug encapsulation and extending HupA release for over 20 days. In vivo tests on AD mice showed significant therapeutic efficacy, including reduced amyloid-beta deposition, restored cholinergic function, suppressed glial activation, reduced neuroinflammation, enhanced neuronal survival, and preserved synaptic integrity. These effects led to improved spatial memory and reduced anxiety/depression-like behaviors. The study concludes that the HupA@(NP/Gel) system effectively addresses HupA delivery challenges, offering a promising strategy for Alzheimer's intervention.
