“…[68] In a similar approach, Tse et al printed primary porcine Schwann cells and neuronal analog NG108-15 cells with a piezoelectric inkjet printer. [69] This study showed that a higher range of experimental voltages has no adverse effects over a period of 7 days. Whereas these studies could be considered relatively simplistic in nature (i.e.…”

To gain a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of neurological disease, relevant tissue models are imperative. Over the years, this realization has fuelled the development of novel tools and platforms, which aim at capturing in vivo complexity. One example is the field of biofabrication, which focuses on fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) biologically functional products in a controlled and automated manner. Herein, we provide a general overview of classical 3D cell culture platforms, particularly in the context of neurodegenerative disease. Subsequently, the focus is put on bioprinting-based biofabrication, its potential to advance 3D neuronal cell culture and, to conclude, the relevant translational bottlenecks, which will need to be considered as the field evolves.

Bioprinting as an enabling technology for tissue engineering possesses the promises to fabricate highly mimicked tissue or organs with digital control. As one of the biofabrication approaches, bioprinting has the advantages of high throughput and precise control of both scaffold and cells. Therefore, this technology is not only ideal for translational medicine but also for basic research applications. Bioprinting has already been widely applied to construct functional tissues such as vasculature, muscle, cartilage, and bone. In this review, the authors introduce the most popular techniques currently applied in bioprinting, as well as the various bioprinting processes. In addition, the composition of bioink including scaffolds and cells are described. Furthermore, the most current applications in organ and tissue bioprinting are introduced. The authors also discuss the challenges we are currently facing and the great potential of bioprinting. This technology has the capacity not only in complex tissue structure fabrication based on the converted medical images, but also as an efficient tool for drug discovery and preclinical testing. One of the most promising future advances of bioprinting is to develop a standard medical device with the capacity of treating patients directly on the repairing site, which requires the development of automation and robotic technology, as well as our further understanding of biomaterials and stem cell biology to integrate various printing mechanisms for multi-phasic tissue engineering.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing, or rapid prototyping, is a fabrication technique that is used for various engineering applications with advantages such as mass production and fine tuning of spatial-dimensional properties. Recently, this fabrication method has been adopted for tissue engineering applications due to its ability to finely tune porosity and create precise, uniform, and repeatable structures. This review aims to introduce 3D printing applications in soft-tissue engineering and regenerative medicine including state-of-the-art scaffolds and key future challenges. Furthermore, 3D printing of individual cells, an evolution of traditional 3D printing technology which represents a cutting-edge technique for the creation of cell seeded scaffolds in vitro, is discussed. Key advances demonstrate the advantages of 3D printing, while also highlighting potential shortcomings to improve upon. It is clear that as 3D printing technology continues to develop, it will serve as a truly revolutionary means for fabrication of structures and materials for regenerative applications.
