“…Biofabrication approaches have progressed considerably in the last decade, with the primary goal of recapitulating the key structure and performance of native human tissues. [20] However, to date it has remained virtually impossible to fabricate tissue constructs that display the exact same organization of individual cells in their native cellular microenvironments. Spheroids/organoids rely largely on the stochastic self- assembly of aggregates of cells.…”

Tissue development, function, and disease are largely driven by the spatial organization of individual cells and their cell-cell interactions. Precision engineered tissues with single-cell spatial resolution, therefore, have tremendous potential for next generation disease models, drug discovery, and regenerative therapeutics. Despite significant advancements in biofabrication approaches to improve feature resolution, strategies to fabricate tissues with the exact same organization of individual cells in their native cellular microenvironment have remained virtually non-existent to date. Here we report a method to spatially pattern single cells with up to eight cell phenotypes and subcellular spatial precision. As proof-of-concept we first demonstrate the ability to systematically assess the influence of cellular microenvironments on cell behavior by controllably altering the spatial arrangement of cell types in bioprinted precision cell-cell interaction arrays. We then demonstrate, for the first time, the ability to produce high-fidelity replicas of an annotated cancer patient biopsy with subcellular resolution. The ability to replicate native cellular microenvironments marks a significant advancement for precision biofabricated in-vitro models, where heterogenous tissues can be engineered with single-cell spatial precision to advance our understanding of complex biological systems in a controlled and systematic manner.

“…The cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions play crucial role during tissue development and disease. Thus, successful fabrication of a functional tissue requires manufacturing strategies that can recapitulate the native ECM along with precise assembly and patterning of cells into dense structures [1][2][3][4][5].…”

Embedded bioprinting is an emerging technology for precise deposition of cell-laden or cell-only bioinks to construct tissue like structures. Bioink is extruded or transferred into a yield stress hydrogel or a microgel support bath allowing print needle motion during printing and providing temporal support for the printed construct. Although this technology has enabled creation of complex tissue structures, it remains a challenge to develop a support bath with user-defined extracellular mimetic cues and their spatial and temporal control. This is crucial to mimic the dynamic nature of the native tissue to better regenerate tissues and organs. To address this, we present a bioprinting approach involving printing of a photocurable viscous support layer and bioprinting of a cell-only or cell-laden bioink within this viscous layer followed by brief exposure to light to partially crosslink the support layer. This approach does not require shear thinning behavior and is suitable for a wide range of photocurable hydrogels to be used as a support. It enables multi-material printing to spatially control support hydrogel heterogeneity including temporal delivery of bioactive cues (e.g., growth factors), and precise patterning of dense multi-cellular structures within these hydrogel supports. Here, dense stem cell aggregates are printed within methacrylated hyaluronic acid-based hydrogels with patterned heterogeneity to spatially modulate human mesenchymal stem cell osteogenesis. This study has significant impactions on creating tissue interfaces (e.g., osteochondral tissue) in which spatial control of ECM properties for patterned stem cell differentiation is crucial.
