Three-dimensional printing of cell-laden hydrogels has evolved as a promising approach on the route to patient-specific or complex tissue-engineered constructs. However, it is still challenging print structures with both, high shape fidelity and cell vitality. Herein, we used synthetic nanosilicate clay, called Laponite, build up scaffolds utilising extrusion-based method 3D plotting. By blending alginate methylcellulose, bioink was developed which allowed easy extrusion, achieving fidelity....

Three-dimensional extrusion of two different biomaterials in a core/shell (c/s) fashion has gained much interest the last couple years as it allows for fabricating constructs with novel and interesting properties. We now demonstrate that combining high concentrated (16.7 wt%) alginate hydrogels shell material low concentrated, soft biopolymer core leads to mechanically stable robust 3D scaffolds. Alginate, chitosan, gellan gum, gelatin collagen were utilized successfully materials-hydrogels...

Extrusion-based bioprinting, also known as 3D bioplotting, is a powerful tool for the fabrication of tissue equivalents with spatially defined cell distribution. Even though considerable progress has been made in recent years, there still lack bioinks which enable tissue-like response and are plottable at same time good shape fidelity. Herein, we report on development bioink includes fresh frozen plasma from full human blood thus donor/patient-specific protein mixture. By blending 3 w/v%...

One of the key challenges in biofabrication applications is to obtain bioinks that provide a balance between printability, shape fidelity, cell viability, and tissue maturation. Decellularization methods allow extraction natural extracellular matrix, preserving tissue-specific matrix proteins. However, critical challenge bone decellularization preserve both organic (collagen, proteoglycans) inorganic components (hydroxyapatite) maintain composition functionality bone. Besides, there need...

The bone marrow microenvironment is the preferred location of multiple myeloma, supporting tumor growth and development. It composed a collection interacting subniches, including endosteal perivascular niche. Current in vitro models mimic either these subniches. By developing model combining both niches, this study aims to further enhance ability culture primary myeloma cells vitro. Also, dependency on each niche was studied.

Long-term stability of gellan gum (GG) at physiological conditions is expected, as very low concentration divalent ions are required for crosslinking, compared to alginate—which extensively used tissue engineering (TE) applications. Hence, GG proposed an ideal candidate substitute alginate TE. Deacylated (low acyl; LA) forms brittle gels, thus only concentrations were cell encapsulation, whereas acylated (high HA) weak/soft gels. 3D bioprinting using pure LAGG or HAGG not possible owing...
