In a new study published in the scientific journal Advanced Materials, scientists described new cellular
As a result of the experiment, a variety of complex bioconstructions with well-defined configurations and high cell viability, including a cartilage-like tissue formation, were obtained.
“This bioink system allows you to printdesigns capable of achieving more complex architectural changes over time than previously possible. These cell-rich structures with programmed and controlled shape changes can better mimic the body's natural developmental processes and could help scientists conduct more precise studies of tissue morphogenesis and achieve greater advances in tissue engineering,” the scientists added.
They note that this is the first system thatMeets the high demands of 4D bioprinting. “We are looking to implement this system into clinical applications of tissue engineering as there is an acute shortage of donor tissues and organs,” the researchers added.
