Polydopamine-Based Interfacial Engineering of Extracellular Matrix Hydrogels for the Construction and Long-Term Maintenance of Living Three-Dimensional Tissues

“…37 By making it possible to control cells and their microenvironment with unprecedented spatiotemporal precision, these microengineered systems provide a powerful platform to mimic and interrogate the complexity of human physiological systems in vitro. 6,38 Early studies in this area have demonstrated the instrumental role of conventional 2D cell culture techniques in creating organ-on-chip models of various tissue types. [39][40][41] With the increasing interest in developing more advanced and realistic in vitro models, however, there is a significant need for reliable and accessible approaches to establishing and maintaining 3D cell culture in microfabricated devices.…”

“…4,5 Significant progress in this area has led to a wave of 3D culture models designed to address the inherent limitations of traditional two-dimensional (2D) culture, ranging from simple cell-laden hydrogel constructs to bioprinted 3D tissues and microengineered organ-on-a-chip systems. 6,7 As an essential component of these 3D culture systems, ECM-derived hydrogels provide structural support for cell adhesion and produce insoluble microenvironmental cues that can instruct cultured cells to exhibit their 3D phenotype. 8,9 Despite their desirable properties and important biological function, however, ECM hydrogels also pose unique challenges to in vitro culture.…”
