Pectin has found extensive interest in biomedical applications, including wound dressing, drug delivery, and cancer targeting. However, the low viscosity of pectin solutions hinders their applications 3D bioprinting. Here, we developed multicomponent bioinks prepared by combining with TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNFs) to optimize inks' printability while ensuring stability printed hydrogels simultaneously print viable cell-laden inks. First, screened several combinations (1%,...
Tissue engineering (TE) of adipose tissue (AT) is a promising strategy that can provide 3D constructs to be used for in vitro modelling, overcoming the limitations 2D cell cultures by closely replicating complex breast extracellular matrix (ECM), cell-cell, and cell-ECM interactions. However, challenge developing AT resides designing artificial matrices mimic structural properties native support adipocytes biological functions. Herein, we developed photocrosslinkable hydrogels employing...
The development of 3D scaffold-based models would represent a great step forward in cancer research, offering the possibility predicting potential vivo response to targeted anticancer or anti-angiogenic therapies. As regards, vitro require proper materials, which faithfully recapitulated extracellular matrix (ECM) properties, adequate cell lines, and an efficient vascular network. aim this work is investigate possible realization model adipose tissue, by incorporating decellularized plant...
The prolonged hospitalization due to the premature failure of implant is one key aspect be addressed by new category prosthetic devices, which must ensure a perfect fit with surrounding bones and good fast healing process. Such strict requirements can satisfied processing Titanium (Ti) alloys using innovative manufacturing processes, like SuperPlastic Forming (SPF) Single Point Incremental (SPIF). Nevertheless, even if biocompatibility Ti quite well assessed, conditions might affect final...
