Biomacromolecule drugs have been increasingly used in clinical practice due to their distinct advantages, including precise targeting, small dose, high safety and activity. However, owing to their high molecular weight, strong hydrophilicity, and poor stability in the gastrointestinal tract, the oral bioavailability of the biomacromolecule drugs remains extremely poor. As a novel and innovative technology for active drug delivery, gastrointestinal microneedles hold immense potential in the oral delivery of biomacromolecule drugs because of their low-invasive nature and high permeation enhancement effects. This review primarily summarizes the actuating force, design strategies, fabrication techniques, and applications of gastrointestinal microneedles for the oral delivery of biomacromolecule drugs. Additionally, the challenges and further perspectives in the development this technology are presented, aiming to promote the subsequent research and clinical translation of gastrointestinal microneedles, and to provide a new efficient and safe strategy for oral delivery of biomacromolecule drugs.

AIM:To investigate the serum antibody of aquaporin 4 ( AQP4 - Ab ) in positive expression rate and the significance in patients with neuritis.
●METHODS: A total of 98 cases ( 128 eyes ) of patients with optic neuritis were studied to detect the patient′s serum AQP4-Ab positive rate of antinuclear antibodies ( ANAs) from Jan. 2012 to Dec. 2015 in ophthalmology center of our hospital. According to the expression of AQP4 - Ab group, the best corrected visual acuity between the two groups, peripapillary nerve fiber layer thickness (pRNFL), the volume of the macula, macular RNFL ( mRNFL ) , macular core layer volume ( mlNL ) measurement were compared.
●RESULTS:Ninety-eight patients (128 eyes) with optic neuritis cases diagnosed through examination revealed AQP4-Ab positive in 22 patients ( 22%) , negative in 76 patients ( 78%) , ANAs positive in 21 patients ( 21%) , negative 77 patients ( 79%) . Optic neuritis patients with serum AQP4 - Ab positive rate and ANAs positive significant correlation ( r = 0. 707, P < 0. 05 ). After examination revealed AQP4-Ab patients and negative-positive patients with best corrected visual acuity difference was not statistically significance (P>0. 05). After inspection found pRNFL, macular volume measured value AQP4 - Ab positive patients were significantly less than the negative patients, the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05). AQP4-Ab positive patients and negative patients the mRNFL, mlNL measured values were not significantly different (P>0. 05).
●CONCLUSION:AQP4-Ab and ANAs expression in optic neuritis patients is a significant correlation. AQP4-Ab positive patients with optic neuritis pRNFL thinning of macular volume are decreased compared with negative patients.
