Cardiac safety assessments are significant in drug discovery, as drug-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) is the primary cause of attrition. Despite heart-on-a-chip (HoC) technology becoming an increasingly popular tool for evaluating DIC, its development remains a challenge owing to anisotropic cardiac structure native myocardium. Herein, multiscale scaffold presented via hybrid biofabrication method by combining 3D printing with electrospinning technology, where 3D-printed micrometer-scale frames enable mimicking interwoven myocardium anatomical and branched-aligned electrospun nanofibers network able directionally guide cellular arrangements. The vitro bioengineered tissues then fabricated encapsulating three-layer scaffolds within photocurable methacrylated gelatin hydrogel shell. It demonstrated that such could contribute enhancing cardiomyocyte maturation synchronous beating behavior. More attractively, integration self-designed microfluidic perfusion system, HoC platform established DIC cardioprotective efficacy. Collectively, these results indicate model developed integrating effectively recapitulate clinical manifestations, thereby highlighting their efficacy valuable preclinical testing cardiotoxicity.
