Abstract
Methods for intravesical administration of a therapeutic agent including application of a photoactive nanogel to the mucosal surfaces of the bladder and/or intravesical application of cell-penetrating peptides. Photoactive nanogels may be aggregated by exposure to ultraviolet light, either in vitro or in vivo, to provide controlled or extended release of a therapeutic agent, such as an antibiotic.
