    Abstract: The prospective of percutaneous drug delivery (PDD) mechanisms to address the limitations of oral and injectable treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is increasing. These limitations encompass inadequate compliance among patients and acute gastrointestinal side effects. However, the skin's intrinsic layer can frequently hinder the percutaneous dispersion of RA medications, thus mitigating the efficiency of drug delivery. To circumvent this constraint, we developed a strontium ranelate (SrR)-loaded alginate (ALG) phototherapeutic hydrogel to assess its effectiveness in combating RA. Our studies revealed that this SrR-loaded ALG hydrogel incorporating photoelectrically responsive molybdenum disulfide nanoflowers (MoS2 NFs) and photothermally responsive polypyrrole nanoparticles (Ppy NPs) to form ALG@SrR-MoS2 NFs-Ppy NPs demonstrated substantial mechanical strength, potentially enabling delivery of hydrophilic therapeutic agents into the skin and significantly impeding the progression of RA. Comprehensive biochemical, histological, behavioral, and radiographic analyses in an animal model of zymosan-induced RA demonstrated that the application of these phototherapeutic ALG@SrR-MoS2 NFs-Ppy NPs effectively reduced inflammation, increased the presence of heat shock proteins, regulatory cluster of differentiation M2 macrophages, and alleviated joint degeneration associated with RA. As demonstrated by our findings, treating RA and possibly other autoimmune disorders with this phototherapeutic hydrogel system offers a distinctive, highly compliant, and therapeutically efficient method.
