Insulin therapy revolutionized the care of patients with diabetes, yet insulin-induced hypoglycemia remains a serious life-threatening complication of insulin therapy. Glucagon is a highly effective treatment for hypoglycemia; however, current dosage forms remain under-utilized due to poor patient compliance. High-density, readily soluble, and thermostable solid glucagon formulations applied with painless, application-specific microneedle-patches can treat hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes patients who are awake or asleep. On-demand patches can prevent or treat mild hypoglycemia during the day, and enzyme-driven hypoglycemia-responsive patches can release glucagon autonomously during the night. These patches have excellent in vitro glucagon stability, loading, and release kinetics and can treat hypoglycemia in diabetic humans and animals. These delivery systems enable new modes of glucagon therapy, thereby expanding the clinical role of glucagon beyond the emergency setting.

This invention discloses the application of IKK inhibitors in the preparation of drugs to restore pancreatic islet function. IKK inhibitors can effectively improve the problem of pancreatic β-cell differentiation defects, significantly increase the number of pancreatic β-cells, enhance the insulin secretion capacity of islet cells, and specifically upregulate the expression of key functional genes of pancreatic β-cells such as INS and NKX6.1 genes, thus repairing pancreatic islet function damage. This solves the technical problem that current treatments for type 1 diabetes can only replace insulin and relieve blood sugar symptoms, but cannot fundamentally repair pancreatic islet function. IKK inhibitors can be used to prepare drugs for the treatment of type 1 diabetes, providing a new approach for the clinical treatment of type 1 diabetes and possessing extremely high clinical translational value.
