Bioprinting of hydrogel-based bioinks can allow for the fabrication elaborate, cell-laden 3D structures. In addition to providing an adequate extracellular matrix mimetic environment and high cell viability, hydrogels must offer facile extrusion through printing nozzle retain shape printed structure. We demonstrate a strategy incorporate cellulose oxalate nanofibrils in hyaluronan-based generate shear thinning that allowed free-standing multilayer structures, covalently cross-linked after bioprinting, yielding long-term stability. The storage modulus was tunable between 0.5 1.5 kPa. nanocellulose containing showed good biocompatibility, with viability primary human dermal fibroblasts above 80% at day 7 seeding. cells were also shown tolerate process well, 24 h printing. anticipate this hydrogel system find broad use as bioink produce complex geometries support growth.

Biocompatibility testing of materials is carried out in 2D cell cultures or animal models despite serious limitations. 3D skin equivalents are advanced vitro for human skin. Silicone has been shown to be noncytotoxic but capable eliciting an immune response. Our aim was (1) establish a equivalent (2) assess the proinflammatory properties silicone. We developed coculture keratinocytes and fibroblasts resulting with implant using samples from breast implant. Samples without silicone were studied histologically immunohistochemically comparison native samples. Cytotoxicity assessed via LDH-assay, cytokine response ELISA.

Tissues thicker than 200 µm cannot survive without capillary network, necessitating construction exceeding that thickness. Therefore, we focused on inexpensive and easy-to-fabricate device for thick three-dimensional(3D)-cultured tissues. This does not have conventional pillar array structure, nutrient supply cells from adjacent media channels is obstructed. Additionally, this require expensive soft lithography equipment or high-precision 3D printer fabricate mold.

Abstract A 3D‐printed origami‐inspired magnetic scaffold has been developed to investigate the influence of physical cues on guided cellular proliferation in a 3D microenvironment. Microscale channels are first constructed and populated with NIH/3T3 fibroblast and/or A549 cancer cell clusters that initially bioprinted within channels. Once these fully populated, permanent magnet is applied fold scaffolds. By varying channel width incorporating an intermediate extracellular matrix hydrogel (IE) layer along origami folding, provides geometric gravitational proliferation.
