Biomimetic nanoplatform with microbiome modulation and antioxidant functions ameliorating insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction for T2DM management

Insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are the main pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, insulin therapy and diabetes medications do not effectively solve the two problems simultaneously. In this study, a biomimetic oral hydrogen nanogenerator that leverages the benefits of edible plant-derived exosomes and hydrogen therapy was constructed to overcome this dilemma by modulating gut microbiota and ameliorating oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. Hollow mesoporous silica (HMS) nanoparticles encapsulating ammonia borane (A) were used to overcome the inefficiency of H
