Additive manufacturing (AM), which is based on the principle of layer-by-layer shaping and stacking discrete materials, has shown significant benefits in fabrication complicated implants for tissue engineering (TE). However, many native tissues exhibit anisotropic heterogenous constructs with diverse components functions. Consequently, replication biomimetic using conventional AM processes a single material challenging. Multimaterial 3D 4D bioprinting (with time as fourth dimension) emerged promising solution constructing multifunctional that can mimic host microenvironment better than single-material alternatives. Notably, 4D-printed multimaterial architectures provide time-dependent programmable dynamic promote cell activity regeneration response to external stimuli. This paper first presents typical design strategies TE applications. Subsequently, latest are discussed, along their advantages challenges. In particular, potential smart highlighted. Furthermore, this review provides insights into how facilitate realization next-generation

Extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffening is a common occurrence during the progression of many diseases, such as breast cancer. To accurately mimic pathophysiological context disease within 3D in vitro models, there high demand for smart biomaterials which replicate dynamic and temporal mechanical cues diseased states. This study describes preclinical model, using cancer an example, replicates plasticity tumour microenvironment by incorporating (3-week progression) biomechanical tissue-specific hydrogel microenvironment. The composite formulation, integrating adipose-derived decellularised ECM (AdECM) silk fibroin, was initially crosslinked visible light-mediated system, then progressively stiffened through spontaneous secondary structure interactions inherent between polymer chains (∼10–15 kPa increase, with final stiffness 25 kPa). When encapsulated cultured vitro, MCF-7 cells formed numerous, large spheroids (>1000 μm2 area), however, progressive stiffening, demonstrated growth arrest underwent phenotypic changes resulting intratumoral heterogeneity.
