Immunosuppressive Cytokine‐Tethered Hydrogel for Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.An injectable hydrogel is developed by chemically tethering IL‐4, an immunosuppressive cytokine, to a hyaluronic acid‐based backbone. The hydrogel reduces joint friction and exerts immunomodulatory effects. In a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mouse model, it reduced inflammation, preserved cartilage, and promoted anti‐inflammatory immune responses.
