Hydrogel formulations hold promise for efficient drug delivery in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment. Non-invasive in vivo spatiotemporal profiling of drug release is highly warranted but clinically difficult due to the need of additional labeling. We have developed an inflammation-targeting olsalazine-conjugated peptide hydrogel (Olsa-Hydrogel) that serves as an exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance imaging (CEST MRI) activatable prodrug system.
