This animation short film outlines how researchers at CÚRAM are working to design a new hydrogel that can mimic the mucous layer which protects the colon in a healthy individual. The formulation consists of a hydrogel, containing particles which are loaded with anti-inflammatory drugs. The drug loaded particles are designed to travel directly to the inflamed regions of the colon, which facilitates the restoration of the mucosal layer to a state of health, thereby eliminating inflammation and enhancing overall quality of life for people living with IBD.
