Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting embedded within a microgel bath has emerged as promising strategy for creating intricate biomimetic scaffolds. However, it remains great challenge to construct tissue-scale structures with high resolution by using 3D due the large particle size and polydispersity of medium, well its limited cytocompatibility. To address these issues, novel uniform sub-microgels cell-friendly cationic-crosslinked kappa-carrageenan (κ-Car) are developed through an...

Articular cartilage tissue has limited self-repair capabilities, with damage frequently progressing to irreversible degeneration. Engineered tissues constructed through bioprinting and embedded stem cell aggregates offer promising therapeutic alternatives. Aggregates of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) demonstrate enhanced more rapid chondrogenic differentiation than isolated cells, thus facilitating repair. However, it remains a key challenge precisely control biochemical...

Smooth muscles play a vital role in peristalsis, tissue constriction, and relaxation but lack adequate self-repair capability for addressing extensive muscle defects. Engineering scaffolds have been broadly proposed to repair the tissue. However, efforts date shown that those engineered focus on cell alignment 2-dimension (2D) fail direct cells align 3D area, which is irresolvable remodel architecture restore functions like contraction relaxation. Herein, we introduced an iron oxide (Fe 3 O...

Engineered scaffolds are used for repairing damaged esophagus to allow the precise alignment and movement of smooth muscle peristalsis. However, most these focus solely on inducing cell through directional apparatus, often overlooking promotion tissue formation causing reduced esophageal repair effectiveness. To address this issue, we first introduced aligned nano-ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4) assemblies a micropatterned poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogel form micro-/nano-stripes. Further...

Increasing evidence has suggested an association between the expression profiles of microRNAs (miRs) and gallbladder cancer (GBC). Recently, miR‑182 been demonstrated to exert tumor‑promoting effects. However, biological activity molecular mechanisms in GBC remain unclear. The results present study that was significantly upregulated tissues cell lines (GBC‑SD SGC‑996). In addition, miR‑182‑knockdown attenuated epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) cells, as indicated by decreased migratory...

Metformin, a traditional first-line pharmacological treatment for type 2 diabetes, has recently been shown to have anti-cancer effects on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular mechanism underlying anti-tumor activity of metformin remains unclear. The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway is closely associated with initiation and progression HCC. Therefore, aim current study was investigate biological behavior HCC functional in Shh pathway. induced HepG2 cells using...

Embedded three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting utilizing a granular hydrogel supporting bath has emerged as critical technique for creating biomimetic scaffolds. However, engineering suitable gel suspension medium that balances precise bioink deposition with cell viability and function presents multiple challenges, particularly in achieving the desired viscoelastic properties. Here, novel κ-carrageenan is fabricated through an easy-to-operate mechanical grinding process, producing homogeneous...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fourth most common cause of cancer-associated death worldwide. Glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (Gli1) a key component and functions as reliable marker Hedgehog signaling pathway activation. Previous studies have demonstrated that Gli1 serves important roles in progression various types cancer, including HCC. However, its effect on HCC invasion metastasis underlying mechanism remain to be elucidated. Small interference RNA was employed silence gene...
