Application and development of 3D bioprinting in cartilage tissue engineering

Abstract

Articular cartilage defects are one of the most common clinical diseases of bone articulation. Early repair of damaged joint cartilage can effectively stop the progression of arthritis and restore health...

Cartilage 3D bioprinting for rhinoplasty using adipose‐derived stem cells as seed cells: Review and recent advances

“…Seed cells, scaffold materials, and growth factors were researched and improved to achieve optimization of engineered cartilage 2 . Techniques of constructing scaffolds, including 3D bioprinting (such as inkjet bioprinting, laser‐assisted bioprinting, extrusion‐based bioprinting, acoustic bioprinting, stereolithography bioprinting, and magnetic bioprinting), direct moulding methods (such as cell sheet stacking, lithography, and injection moulding), and a group of methods for constructing porous scaffolds (such as electrospinning, phase separation, freeze‐drying, and self‐assembly), are also important to elevating cartilage performance 3–6 . Nowadays, 3D bioprinting, as a form of cell‐laden bottom‐up additive manufacturing, has become one of the most promising and advanced tissue engineering methods.…”

Tuning the crosslinking and degradation of hyaluronic acid/gelatin hydrogels using hydrogen peroxide for muscle cell sheet fabrication

“…26 Gelatin is also an attractive choice owing to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to mimic some aspects of the ECM properties, making it a suitable component for composite hydrogels in tissue engineering applications. 14…”

“…H 2 O 2 -mediated hydrogelation has been applied to create hydrogels from various polymer solutions for diverse biomedical applications. [10][11][12][13][14] Hydrogels are water-swollen networks of polymer chains that are commonly used for in vitro cell culture applications owing to their high biocompatibility, degradability, and similarity to the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). [15][16][17][18] Hydrogels can be designed with various physical, chemical, and biological properties, such as stiffness, porosity, and specific moieties that interact with cell surface receptors.…”

3D double-reinforced graphene oxide – nanocellulose biomaterial inks for tissue engineered constructs

“…In the past decade, graphene and its derivatives were investigated for a variety of applications spanning from catalytic uses to sensing, pharmaceutical systems, and tissue engineering. [6][7][8] These nanostructured carbonaceous materials offer distinct features where the unique value of graphene in bone restoration is best shown by its mechanical qualities, such as strength, stiffness, or exibility. [9][10][11] Furthermore, graphene oxide (GO) provides reactive functional groups that encourage cell attachment and surface chemistry with other compounds.…”
