Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease that is prevalent worldwide, causing complications that affect the quality of life and longevity of humans. Currently, the low bioavailability upon subcutaneous injection of an appetite suppressant, liraglutide, and health problems in the locally injected region remain to be overcome. In this study, we developed a novel hyaluronic acid-based liraglutide-encapsulated triple-layer microneedle (TLM) as a painless and patient-friendly long-term drug delivery system. In contrast to previous anti-obesity microneedle approaches, this TLM is composed of three layers for complete skin insertion, protecting the encapsulated liraglutide from environmental stresses. Daily topical application of the liraglutide-loaded TLM significantly reduced body weight and improved body composition in a mouse model of high-fat diet-induced obesity. Additionally, it ameliorated diet-induced hepatic steatosis in obese mice. This novel TLM could promote a glucagon-like peptide-1 drug release system for long-term daily administration with relatively higher patient compliance compared to subcutaneous injection.
