Advances and Challenges in 3D Bioprinted Cancer Models: Opportunities for Personalized Medicine and Tissue Engineering

Polymers, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(7), С. 948 - 948

Опубликована: Март 31, 2025

Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide, after cardiovascular disease, claiming not only a staggering number lives but also causing considerable health and economic devastation, particularly in less-developed countries. Therapeutic interventions are impeded by differences patient-to-patient responses to anti-cancer drugs. A personalized medicine approach crucial for treating specific patient groups includes using molecular genetic screens find appropriate stratifications patients who will respond (and those not) treatment regimens. However, information on which risk stratification method can be used hone cancer types likely responders agent remains elusive most cancers. Novel developments 3D bioprinting technology have been widely applied recreate relevant bioengineered tumor organotypic structures capable mimicking human tissue microenvironment or adequate drug high-throughput screening settings. Parts autogenously printed form tissues computer-aided design concept where multiple layers include different cell compatible biomaterials build configurations. Patient-derived stromal cells, together with material, extracellular matrix proteins, growth factors, create bioprinted models that provide possible platform new therapies advance. Both natural synthetic biopolymers encourage cells biological materials models/implants. These may facilitate physiologically cell-cell cell-matrix interactions heterogeneity resembling real tumors.

Hybrid 3D microfluidic bioprinting for the engineering of cancer models and tissue substitutes

Virtual and Physical Prototyping, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 19(1)

Опубликована: Ноя. 4, 2024

3D bioprinting is at the forefront of tissue engineering to fabricate complex constructs resembling functional tissues. However, inability produce heterogeneous tissues and lack spatio-temporal control over release bioactive factors are greatly limiting clinical translation. Herein, combination with high-throughput dispensing using a custom microfluidic system nanoclay-based inks presented. This approach was found enhance printability, retention, controlled factors. Advanced models were developed resemble cancer skeletal tissue, while studying effect anti-cancer (Doxorubicin) pro-osteogenic growth (bone morphogenetic protein-2, BMP-2), respectively. The new nanoclay ink allowed sustained release, making it suitable for long-term applications. These findings suggest that by combining delivery platform can be assembled, offering significant advancements in regenerative medicine.

Forthcoming perspective could revolutionize healthcare worldwide for patients with extensive burns

Journal of Stem Cell Research & Therapeutics, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 10(1), С. 17 - 19

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2025

Burns impact millions of individuals, both adults and children, across the globe, leading to significant morbidity mortality rates. The primary factor influencing survival in burn cases is speed wound healing. Extensive wounds surpass body's natural healing abilities, existing coverage materials often fall short due limitations cellular content, availability, or risk immunological rejection. Severe burns, particularly those that cover a substantial area body, continue pose challenge for contemporary medical practice. Current therapeutic approaches primarily involve skin grafting, which utilizes patient's own healthy tissue facilitate coverage. In situations where affected by burns extensive, it becomes nearly unfeasible locate sufficient grafting. This further exacerbated presence scarring, persistent pain, various other complications considerably diminish quality life who survive. Within this framework, groundbreaking approach utilizing 3D bioprinting (3DBP) stem cell cultivation may offer viable solution addressing severe injuries.
