Abstract
Bioprinting is an emerging approach for constructing sophisticated tissue analogues with detailed architectures such as vascular networks, which requires bioink fulfill the highly printable property and provide a cell-friendly microenvironment mimicking native extracellular matrix (ECM). Here, we developed a human placental ECM-derived bioink (hp-bioink) meeting the requirements of 3D printing for printability and bioactivity. We first decellularized the human placenta, followed by enzymatic digestion, dialysis, lyophilization, and re-solubilization to convert the extracts into hp-bioink. Then, we demonstrated that 3%-5% of hp-bioink can be printed with self-standing and 1%-2% of hp-bioink can be embedded with suspended hydrogels. Moreover, hp-bioink supports HUVEC assembly in vitro and angiogenesis in mice in vivo. Our research enriched the bank of human-derived bioink, and provided a new opportunity to further accelerate bioprinting research and application.

Abstract
Decellularized extracellular matrices (ECMs) are being extensively used for tissue engineering purposes and detergents are predominantly used for this. A facile detergent-free decellularization method is developed for dermal matrix and compared it with the most used detergent-based decellularization methods. An optimized, single-step, cost-effective Hypotonic/Hypertonic (H/H) Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solutions-based method is employed to decellularize goat skin that resulted in much higher yield than other methods. The ECM composition, mechanical property, and cytocompatibility are evaluated and compared with other decellularization methods. Furthermore, this H/H-treated decellularized dermal ECM (ddECM) exhibits a residual DNA content of <50 ng mg-1 of dry tissue. Moreover, 85.64 ± 3.01% of glycosaminoglycans and 65.53 ± 2.9% collagen are retained compared to the native tissue, which is higher than the ddECMs prepared by other methods. The cellular response is superior in ddECM (H/H) than other ddECMs prepared by detergent-based methods. Additionally, a bioink is formulated with the ddECM (H/H), showing good shear thinning and shear recovery properties. Process optimization in terms of print speed, flow rate, and viscosity is done to obtain a bioprinting window for ddECM bioink. The printed constructs with optimized parameters have adequate mechanical and cell adhesive properties and excellent isotropic cellular alignment.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques for scaffold fabrication have shown promising advancements in recent years owing to the ability of the latest high-performance printers to mimic the native tissue down to submicron scales. Nevertheless, host integration and performance of scaffolds in vivo have been severely limited owing to the lack of robust strategies to promote vascularization in 3D printed scaffolds. As a result, researchers over the past decade have been exploring strategies that can promote vascularization in 3D printed scaffolds toward enhancing scaffold functionality and ensuring host integration. Various emerging strategies to enhance vascularization in 3D printed scaffolds are discussed. These approaches include simple strategies such as the enhancement of vascular in-growth from the host upon implantation by scaffold modifications to complex approaches wherein scaffolds are fabricated with their own vasculature that can be directly anastomosed or microsurgically connected to the host vasculature, thereby ensuring optimal integration. The key differences among the techniques, their pros and cons, and the future opportunities for utilizing each technique are highlighted here. The Review concludes with the current limitations and future directions that can help 3D printing emerge as an effective biofabrication technique to realize tissues with physiologically relevant vasculatures to ultimately accelerate clinical translation.

Abstract
Clinical recovery from vascular diseases has increasingly become reliant upon the successful fabrication of artificial blood vessels (BVs) or vascular prostheses due to the shortage of autologous vessels and the high incidence of vessel graft diseases. Even though many attempts at the clinical implementation of large artificial BVs have been reported to be successful, the development of small-diameter BVs remains one of the significant challenges due to the limitation of micro-manufacturing capacity in complexity and reproducibility, as well as the development of thrombosis. The present study aims to develop 3D printed small-diameter artificial BVs that recapitulate the longitudinal geometric elements in the native BVs using biocompatible polylactic acid (PLA). As their intrinsic physical properties are crystallinity dependent, we used two PLA filaments with different crystallinity to investigate the suitability of their physical properties in the micro-manufacturing of BVs. To explore the mechanism of venous thrombosis, our study provided a preliminarily comparative analysis of the effect of geometry-induced flows on the behavior of human endothelial cells (ECs). Our results showed that the adhered healthy ECs in the 3D printed BV exhibited regulated patterns, such as elongated and aligned parallel to the flow direction, as well as geometry-induced EC response mechanisms that are associated with hemodynamic shear stresses. Furthermore, the computational fluid dynamics simulation results provided insightful information to predict velocity profile and wall shear stress distribution in the geometries of BVs in accordance with their spatiotemporally-dependent cell behaviors. Our study demonstrated that 3D printed small-diameter BVs could serve as suitable candidates for fundamental BV studies and hold great potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
The field of tissue engineering continues to advance, sometimes in exponential leaps forward, but also sometimes at a rate that does not fulfill the promise that the field imagined a few decades ago. This review is in part a catalog of success in an effort to inform the process of innovation. Tissue engineering has recruited new technologies and developed new methods for engineering tissue constructs that can be used to mitigate or model disease states for study. Key to this antecedent statement is that the scientific effort must be anchored in the needs of a disease state and be working toward a functional product in regenerative medicine. It is this focus on the wildly important ideas coupled with partnered research efforts within both academia and industry that have shown most translational potential. The field continues to thrive and among the most important recent developments are the use of three-dimensional bioprinting, organ-on-a-chip, and induced pluripotent stem cell technologies that warrant special attention. Developments in the aforementioned areas as well as future directions are highlighted in this article. Although several early efforts have not come to fruition, there are good examples of commercial profitability that merit continued investment in tissue engineering. Impact statement Tissue engineering led to the development of new methods for regenerative medicine and disease models. Among the most important recent developments in tissue engineering are the use of three-dimensional bioprinting, organ-on-a-chip, and induced pluripotent stem cell technologies. These technologies and an understanding of them will have impact on the success of tissue engineering and its translation to regenerative medicine. Continued investment in tissue engineering will yield products and therapeutics, with both commercial importance and simultaneous disease mitigation.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is one of the most promising additive manufacturing technologies for fabricating various biomimetic architectures of tissues and organs. In this context, the bioink, a critical element for biofabrication, is a mixture of biomaterials and living cells used in 3D printing to create cell-laden structures. Recently, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)-based bioinks derived from natural tissues have garnered enormous attention from researchers due to their unique and complex biochemical properties. This review initially presents the details of the natural ECM and its role in cell growth and metabolism. Further, we briefly emphasize the commonly used decellularization treatment procedures and subsequent evaluations for the quality control of the dECM. In addition, we summarize some of the common bioink preparation strategies, the 3D bioprinting approaches, and the applicability of 3D-printed dECM bioinks to tissue engineering. Finally, we present some of the challenges in this field and the prospects for future development.

Abstract
As a microenvironment where cells reside, the extracellular matrix (ECM) has a complex network structure and appropriate mechanical properties to provide structural and biochemical support for the surrounding cells. In tissue engineering, the ECM and its derivatives can mitigate foreign body responses by presenting ECM molecules at the interface between materials and tissues. With the widespread application of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting, the use of the ECM and its derivative bioinks for 3D bioprinting to replicate biomimetic and complex tissue structures has become an innovative and successful strategy in medical fields. In this review, we summarize the significance and recent progress of ECM-based biomaterials in 3D bioprinting. Then, we discuss the most relevant applications of ECM-based biomaterials in 3D bioprinting, such as tissue regeneration and cancer research. Furthermore, we present the status of ECM-based biomaterials in current research and discuss future development prospects.

Abstract
Diabetic wound is a significant challenge for clinical treatment with high morbidity and mortality. Plenty of hydrogels with good biocompatibility have been widely used in diabetic wound healing. However, most of them cannot be directly absorbed and utilized by the wounds, which prolongs the regeneration time. Here a new type of healing hydrogel is developed that is based on histidine, a natural dietary essential amino acid that is significant for tissue formation. The amino acid is cross-linked with zinc ions (Zn2+ ) and sodium alginate (SA) via dynamic coordinate and hydrogen bonds, respectively, forming a histidine-SA-Zn2+ (HSZH) hydrogel with good injectable, adhesive, biocompatible, and antibacterial properties. Application of this dual-dynamic-bond cross-linked HSZH hydrogel accelerates the migration and angiogenesis of skin-related cells in vitro. Furthermore, it significantly promotes the healing of infected diabetic wounds in vivo and uniquely allows a full repair of wounds within ≈13 days, while ≈27 days are required for the healing process of the control group. This work provides a new strategy for designing wound dressing materials, that weakly cross-linked material based on tissue-friendly micromolecules can heal the wounds more efficiently than highly cross-linked materials based on long-chain polymers.

[PMID: 35526075 PMCID: PMC9080129 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-02865-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional electrospun membranes are promising dressings for promoting wound healing. However, their microstructure and drug loading capacity need further improvements. It is the first time to design a novel mesh-like electrospun fiber loaded with atorvastatin (ATV) and investigated its effects on paracrine secretion by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and wound healing in vivo. METHODS We fabricated a mesh-like electrospun membrane using a copper mesh receiver. The physical properties of the membranes were evaluated by SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, tensile strength analysis, and contrast angle test. Drug release was measured by plotting concentration as a function of time. We tested the effects of conditioned media (CM) derived from BMSCs on endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis. We used these BMSCs and performed RT-PCR and ELISA to evaluate the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) genes and proteins, respectively. The involvement of FAK and AKT mechanotransduction pathways in the regulation of BMSC secretion by material surface topography was also investigated. Furthermore, we established a rat model of wound healing, applied ATV-loaded mesh-like membranes (PCL/MAT) seeded with BMSCs on wounds, and assessed their efficacy for promoting wound healing. RESULTS FTIR spectroscopy revealed successful ATV loading in PCL/MAT. Compared with random electrospun fibers (PCL/R) and mesh-like electrospun fibers without drug load (PCL/M), PCL/MAT induced maximum promotion of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) migration. In the PCL/MAT group, the cell sheet scratches were nearly closed after 24 h. However, the cell sheet scratches remained open in other treatments at the same time point. The PCL/MAT promoted angiogenesis and led to the generation of longer tubes than the other treatments. Finally, the PCL/MAT induced maximum gene expression and protein secretion of VEGF and b-FGF. As for material surface topography effect on BMSCs, FAK and AKT signaling pathways were shown to participate in the modulation of MSC morphology and its paracrine function. In vivo, PCL/MAT seeded with BMSCs significantly accelerated healing and improved neovascularization and collagen reconstruction in the wound area compared to the other treatments. CONCLUSIONS The mesh-like topography of fibrous scaffolds combined with ATV release creates a unique microenvironment that promotes paracrine secretion of BMSCs, thereby accelerating wound healing. Hence, drug-loaded mesh-like electrospun membranes may be highly efficacious for wound healing and as artificial skin. It is a promising approach to solve the traumatic skin defect and accelerate recovery, which is essential to developing functional materials for future regenerative medicine.

Bioprinting and plastic compression of large pigmented and vascularized human dermo-epidermal skin substitutes by means of a new robotic platform. J Tissue Eng 2022; 13:20417314221088513. [PMID: 35495096 PMCID: PMC9044789 DOI: 10.1177/20417314221088513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Extensive availability of engineered autologous dermo-epidermal skin substitutes (DESS) with functional and structural properties of normal human skin represents a goal for the treatment of large skin defects such as severe burns. Recently, a clinical phase I trial with this type of DESS was successfully completed, which included patients own keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Yet, two important features of natural skin were missing: pigmentation and vascularization. The first has important physiological and psychological implications for the patient, the second impacts survival and quality of the graft. Additionally, accurate reproduction of large amounts of patient’s skin in an automated way is essential for upscaling DESS production. Therefore, in the present study, we implemented a new robotic unit (called SkinFactory) for 3D bioprinting of pigmented and pre-vascularized DESS using normal human skin derived fibroblasts, blood- and lymphatic endothelial cells, keratinocytes, and melanocytes. We show the feasibility of our approach by demonstrating the viability of all the cells after printing in vitro, the integrity of the reconstituted capillary network in vivo after transplantation to immunodeficient rats and the anastomosis to the vascular plexus of the host. Our work has to be considered as a proof of concept in view of the implementation of an extended platform, which fully automatize the process of skin substitution: this would be a considerable improvement of the treatment of burn victims and patients with severe skin lesions based on patients own skin derived cells.

Impact of microstructure on cell behavior and tissue mechanics in collagen and dermal decellularized extra-cellular matrices. Acta Biomater 2022; 143:100-114. [PMID: 35235868 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.02.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
Skin models are used for many applications such as research and development or grafting. Unfortunately, most lack a proper microenvironment producing poor mechanical properties and inaccurate extra-cellular matrix composition and organization. In this report we focused on mechanical properties, extra-cellular matrix organization and cell interactions in human skin samples reconstructed with pure collagen or dermal decellularized extra-cellular matrices (S-dECM) and compared them to native human skin. We found that Full-thickness S-dECM samples presented stiffness two times higher than collagen gel and similar to ex vivo human skin, and proved for the first time that keratinocytes also impact dermal mechanical properties. This was correlated with larger fibers in S-dECM matrices compared to collagen samples and with a differential expression of F-actin, vinculin and tenascin C between S-dECM and collagen samples. This is clear proof of the microenvironment's impact on cell behaviors and mechanical properties. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In vitro skin models have been used for a long time for clinical applications or in vitro knowledge and evaluation studies. However, most lack a proper microenvironment producing a poor combination of mechanical properties and appropriate biological outcomes, partly due to inaccurate extra-cellular matrix (ECM) composition and organization. This can lead to limited predictivity and weakness of skin substitutes after grafting. This study shows, for the first time, the importance of a complex and rich microenvironment on cell behaviors, matrix macro- and micro-organization and mechanical properties. The increased composition and organization complexity of dermal skin decellularized extra-cellular matrix populated with differentiated cells produces in vitro skin models closer to native human skin physiology.

Abstract
Artificial skins have been used as skin substitutes for wound healing in the clinic, and as in vitro models for safety assessment in cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technique provides a promising strategy in the fabrication of artificial skins. Despite the technological advances, many challenges remain to be conquered, such as the complicated preparation conditions for bio-printed skin and the unavailability of stability and robustness of skin bioprinting. Here, we formulated a novel bio-ink composed of gelatin, sodium alginate and fibrinogen. By optimizing the ratio of components in the bio-ink, the design of the 3D model and the printing conditions, a fibroblasts-containing dermal layer construct was firstly fabricated, on the top of which laminin and keratinocytes were sequentially placed. Through air-liquid interface (ALI) culture by virtue of sterile wire mesh, a full-thickness skin tissue was thus prepared. HE and immunofluorescence staining showed that the bio-printed skin was not only morphologically representative of the human skin, but also expressed the specific markers related to epidermal differentiation and stratum corneum formation. The presented easy and robust preparation of full-thickness skin constructs provides a powerful tool for the establishment of artificial skins, holding critical academic significance and application value.

Abstract
The increasing global prevalence of endocrine diseases like type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) elevates the need for cellular replacement approaches, which can potentially enhance therapeutic durability and outcomes. Central to any cell therapy is the design of delivery systems that support cell survival and integration. In T1DM, well-established fabrication methods have created a wide range of implants, ranging from 3D macro-scale scaffolds to nano-scale coatings. These traditional methods, however, are often challenged by their inherent limitations in reproducible and discrete fabrication, particularly when scaling to the clinic. Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques provide a means to address these challenges by delivering improved control over construct geometry and microscale component placement. While still early in development in the context of T1DM cellular transplantation, the integration of AM approaches serves to improve nutrient material transport, vascularization efficiency, and the accuracy of cell, matrix, and local therapeutic placement. This review highlights current methods in T1DM cellular transplantation and the potential of AM approaches to overcome these limitations. In addition, emerging AM technologies and their broader application to cell-based therapy are discussed.

Abstract
The field of regenerative medicine has undergone a paradigm shift in recent decades thanks to the emergence of novel therapies based on the use of living organisms. The development of cell-based strategies has become a trend for the treatment of different conditions and pathologies. In this sense, the need for more adequate, biomimetic and well-planned treatments for chronic wounds has found different and innovative strategies, based on the combination of cells with dressings, which seek to revolutionize the wound healing management. Therefore, the objective of this review is to analyze the current state and the latest advances in the research of cell-based dressings for chronic wounds, ranging from traditional and "second generation" bioengineered living skin equivalents to mesenchymal stem cell dressings; the latter include biopolymeric porous scaffolds, electrospun nanofiber meshes, hydrogels and 3D printed bio-printed dressings. Finally, this review updates the completed and ongoing clinical trials in this field and encourages researchers to rethink these new approaches, manufacturing processes and mechanisms of action, as well as their administration strategies and timings.

Abstract
Various synthetic and decellularized materials are being used to reconstruct peripheral nerve defects and replace autologous nerve grafts. In this study, we developed a microgel printing bath to three-dimensionally (3D) print a peripheral nervous system decellularized extracellular matrix nerve graft reinforced by a polycaprolactone (PCL) conduit. The straightforward fabrication method of an alginate microgel-supplemented printing bath allows a 30 μm filament resolution of a low viscous decellularized extracellular matrix hydrogel with neutral pH. When applied to a sciatic nerve defect model of rats, the total number of regenerated axons and relative gastrocnemius muscle weight ratio were comparable to those of the autologous nerve graft group. Meanwhile, the results were superior to those of the porcine decellularized nerve graft group or the 3D printed decellularized extracellular matrix graft group. This study will be the first step demonstrating that the 3D printed decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) graft with a PCL conduit is an effective and reliable choice to replace an autologous nerve graft in the near future.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing is well acknowledged to constitute an important technology in tissue engineering, largely due to the increasing global demand for organ replacement and tissue regeneration. In 3D bioprinting, which is a step ahead of 3D biomaterial printing, the ink employed is impregnated with cells, without compromising ink printability. This allows for immediate scaffold cellularization and generation of complex structures. The use of cell-laden inks or bio-inks provides the opportunity for enhanced cell differentiation for organ fabrication and regeneration. Recognizing the importance of such bio-inks, the current study comprehensively explores the state of the art of the utilization of bio-inks based on natural polymers (biopolymers), such as cellulose, agarose, alginate, decellularized matrix, in 3D bioprinting. Discussions regarding progress in bioprinting, techniques and approaches employed in the bioprinting of natural polymers, and limitations and prospects concerning future trends in human-scale tissue and organ fabrication are also presented.

Abstract
Chronic skin wounds are commonly found in older individuals who have impaired circulation due to diabetes or are immobilized due to physical disability. Chronic wounds pose a severe burden to the health-care system and are likely to become increasingly prevalent in aging populations. Various treatment approaches exist to help the healing process, although the healed tissue does not generally recapitulate intact skin but rather forms a scar that has inferior mechanical properties and that lacks appendages such as hair or sweat glands. This article describes new experimental avenues for attempting to improve the regenerative response of skin using biophysical techniques as well as biochemical methods, in some cases by trying to harness the potential of stem cells, either endogenous to the host or provided exogenously, to regenerate the skin. These approaches primarily address the local wound environment and should likely be combined with other modalities to address regional and systemic disease, as well as social determinants of health. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, Volume 24 is June 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Abstract
The superiority of in vitro 3D cultures over conventional 2D cell cultures is well recognized by the scientific community for its relevance in mimicking the native tissue architecture and functionality. The recent paradigm shift in the field of tissue engineering toward the development of 3D in vitro models can be realized with its myriad of applications, including drug screening, developing alternative diagnostics, and regenerative medicine. Hydrogels are considered the most suitable biomaterial for developing an in vitro model owing to their similarity in features to the extracellular microenvironment of native tissue. In this review article, recent progress in the use of hydrogel-based biomaterial for the development of 3D in vitro biomimetic tissue models is highlighted. Discussions of hydrogel sources and the latest hybrid system with different combinations of biopolymers are also presented. The hydrogel crosslinking mechanism and design consideration are summarized, followed by different types of available hydrogel module systems along with recent microfabrication technologies. We also present the latest developments in engineering hydrogel-based 3D in vitro models targeting specific tissues. Finally, we discuss the challenges surrounding current in vitro platforms and 3D models in the light of future perspectives for an improved biomimetic in vitro organ system.

Abstract
Since the skin covers most surfaces of the body, it is susceptible to damage, which can be fatal depending on the degree of injury to the skin because it defends against external attack and protects internal structures. Various types of artificial skin are being studied for transplantation to repair damaged skin, and recently, the production of replaceable skin using three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology has also been investigated. In this study, skin tissue was produced using a 3D bioprinter with human skin cell lines and cells extracted from mouse skin, and the printing conditions were optimized. Gelatin was used as a bioink, and fibrinogen and alginate were used for tissue hardening after printing. Printed skin tissue maintained a survival rate of 90% or more when cultured for 14 days. Culture conditions were established using 8 mM calcium chloride treatment and the skin tissue was exposed to air to optimize epidermal cell differentiation. The skin tissue was cultured for 14 days after differentiation induction by this optimized culture method, and immunofluorescent staining was performed using epidermal cell differentiation markers to investigate whether the epidermal cells had differentiated. After differentiation, loricrin, which is normally found in terminally differentiated epidermal cells, was observed in the cells at the tip of the epidermal layer, and cytokeratin 14 was expressed in the lower cells of the epidermis layer. Collectively, this study may provide optimized conditions for bioprinting and keratinization for three-dimensional skin production.

Abstract
Burn wounds are a devastating type of skin injury leading to severe impacts on both patients and the healthcare system. Current treatment methods are far from ideal, driving the need for tissue engineered solutions. Among various approaches, stem cell-based strategies are promising candidates for improving the treatment of burn wounds. A thorough search of the Embase, Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science databases was conducted to retrieve original research studies on stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments tested in preclinical models of burn wounds, published between January 2009 and June 2021. Of the 347 articles retrieved from the initial database search, 33 were eligible for inclusion in this review. The majority of studies used murine models with a xenogeneic graft, while a few used the porcine model. Thermal burn was the most commonly induced injury type, followed by surgical wound, and less commonly radiation burn. Most studies applied stem cell treatment immediately post-burn, with final endpoints ranging from 7 to 90 days. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) were the most common stem cell type used in the included studies. Stem cells from a variety of sources were used, most commonly from adipose tissue, bone marrow or umbilical cord, in conjunction with an extensive range of biomaterial scaffolds to treat the skin wounds. Overall, the studies showed favourable results of skin wound repair in animal models when stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments were applied, suggesting that such strategies hold promise as an improved therapy for burn wounds.

Abstract
Abstract:
For many years, discovering the appropriate methods for the treatment of skin irritation has been challenging for specialists and researchers. Bio-printing can be extensively applied to address the demand for proper skin substitutes to improve skin damage. Nowadays, to make more effective bio-mimicking of natural skin, many research teams have developed cell-seeded bio-inks for bioprinting of skin substitutes. These loaded cells can be single or co-cultured in these structures. The present review gives a comprehensive overview of the methods, substantial parameters of skin bioprinting, examples of in vitro and in vivo studies, and current advances and challenges for skin tissue engineering.

Abstract
A variety of human skin models have been developed for applications in regenerative medicine and efficacy studies. Typically, these employ matrix molecules that are derived from non‐human sources along with human cells. Key limitations of such models include a lack of cellular and tissue microenvironment that is representative of human physiology for efficacy studies, as well as the potential for adverse immune responses to animal products for regenerative medicine applications. The use of recombinant extracellular matrix proteins to fabricate tissues can overcome these limitations. We evaluated animal‐ and non‐animal‐derived scaffold proteins and glycosaminoglycans for the design of biomaterials for skin reconstruction in vitro. Screening of proteins from the dermal‐epidermal junction (collagen IV, laminin 5, and fibronectin) demonstrated that certain protein combinations when used as substrates increase the proliferation and migration of keratinocytes compared to the control (no protein). In the investigation of the effect of components from the dermal layer (collagen types I and III, elastin, hyaluronic acid, and dermatan sulfate), the primary influence on the viability of fibroblasts was attributed to the source of type I collagen (rat tail, human, or bovine) used as scaffold. Furthermore, incorporation of dermatan sulfate in the dermal layer led to a reduction in the contraction of tissues compared to the control where the dermal scaffold was composed primarily of collagen type I. This work highlights the influence of the composition of biomaterials on the development of complex reconstructed skin models that are suitable for clinical translation and in vitro safety assessment.

Abstract
Models of skin diseases, such as psoriasis and scleroderma, must accurately recapitulate the complex microenvironment of human skin to provide an efficacious platform for investigation of skin diseases. Skin disease research has been shifting from less complex and less relevant 2D (two-dimensional) models to significantly more relevant 3D (three-dimensional) models. Three-dimensional modeling systems are better able to recapitulate the complex cell–cell and cell–matrix interactions that occur in vivo within skin. Three-dimensional human skin equivalents (HSEs) have emerged as an advantageous tool for the study of skin disease in vitro. These 3D HSEs can be highly complex, containing both epidermal and dermal compartments with integrated adnexal structures. The addition of adnexal structures to 3D HSEs has allowed researchers to gain more insight into the complex pathology of various hereditary and acquired skin diseases. One method of constructing 3D HSEs, 3D bioprinting, has emerged as a versatile and useful tool for generating highly complex HSEs. The development of commercially available 3D bioprinters has allowed researchers to create highly reproducible 3D HSEs with precise integration of multiple adnexal structures. While the field of bioengineered models for study of skin disease has made tremendous progress in the last decade, there are still significant efforts necessary to create truly biomimetic skin disease models. In future studies utilizing 3D HSEs, emphasis must be placed on integrating all adnexal structures relevant to the skin disease under investigation. Thorough investigation of the intricate pathology of skin diseases and the development of effective treatments requires use of highly efficacious models of skin diseases.

Abstract
Much research has been conducted on how patients may be served through new advances in perioperative anaesthetic care. However, adaptations of standardised care methodologies can only provide so many novel solutions for patients and caregivers alike. Similarly, unique methods such as nanoscopic liposomal package delivery for analgesics and affective numbing agents pose a similar issue-specifically that we are still left with the dilemma of patients for whom analgesics and numbing agents are ineffective or harmful. An examination of the potential gains that may result from the targeted development of nanorobotics for anaesthesia in perioperative care will be presented in this essay to help resolve this pending conflict for the research community. This examination should therefore serve as a "call to action" for such research and a "primer" for those for whom the method's implementation would most directly impact.

Abstract
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have promising applications in tissue regeneration. Currently, there are only a few ADSC products that have been approved for clinical use. The clinical application of ADSCs still faces many challenges. Here, we review emerging strategies to improve the therapeutic efficacy of ADSCs in tissue regeneration. First, a great quantity of cells is often needed for the stem cell therapies, which requires the advanced cell expansion technologies. In addition cell-derived products are also required for the development of ‘cell-free’ therapies to overcome the drawbacks of cell-based therapies. Second, it is necessary to strengthen the regenerative functions of ADSCs, including viability, differentiation and paracrine ability, for the tissue repair and regeneration required for different physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Third, poor delivery efficiency also restricts the therapeutic effect of ADSCs. Effective methods to improve cell delivery include alleviating harsh microenvironments, enhancing targeting ability and prolonging cell retention. Moreover, we also point out some critical issues about the sources, effectiveness and safety of ADSCs. With these advanced strategies to improve the therapeutic efficacy of ADSCs, ADSC-based treatment holds great promise for clinical applications in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Skin substitutes can provide a temporary or permanent treatment option for chronic wounds. The selection of skin substitutes depends on several factors, including the type of wound and its severity. Full-thickness skin grafts (SGs) require a well-vascularised bed and sometimes will lead to contraction and scarring formation. Besides, donor sites for full-thickness skin grafts are very limited if the wound area is big, and it has been proven to have the lowest survival rate compared to thick- and thin-split thickness. Tissue engineering technology has introduced new advanced strategies since the last decades to fabricate the composite scaffold via the 3D-bioprinting approach as a tissue replacement strategy. Considering the current global donor shortage for autologous split-thickness skin graft (ASSG), skin 3D-bioprinting has emerged as a potential alternative to replace the ASSG treatment. The three-dimensional (3D)-bioprinting technique yields scaffold fabrication with the combination of biomaterials and cells to form bioinks. Thus, the essential key factor for success in 3D-bioprinting is selecting and developing suitable bioinks to maintain the mechanisms of cellular activity. This crucial stage is vital to mimic the native extracellular matrix (ECM) for the sustainability of cell viability before tissue regeneration. This comprehensive review outlined the application of the 3D-bioprinting technique to develop skin tissue regeneration. The cell viability of human skin cells, dermal fibroblasts (DFs), and keratinocytes (KCs) during in vitro testing has been further discussed prior to in vivo application. It is essential to ensure the printed tissue/organ constantly allows cellular activities, including cell proliferation rate and migration capacity. Therefore, 3D-bioprinting plays a vital role in developing a complex skin tissue structure for tissue replacement approach in future precision medicine.

Abstract
Scar contraction frequently happens in patients with deep burn injuries. Hitherto, porcine dermal extracellular matrix (dECM) has supplied microenvironments that assist in wound healing but fail to inhibit scar contraction. To overcome this drawback, we integrate dECM into three-dimensional (3D)-printed dermal analogues (PDA) to prevent scar contraction. We have developed thermally gelled, non-rheologically modified dECM powder (dECMp) inks and successfully transformed them into PDA that was endowed with a micron-scale spatial structure. The optimal crosslinked PDA exhibited desired structure, good mechanical properties as well as excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, in vivo experiments demonstrated that PDA could significantly reduced scar contraction and improved cosmetic upshots of split thickness skin grafts (STSG) than the commercially available dermal templates and STSG along. The PDA has also induced an early, intense neovascularization, and evoked a type-2-like immune response. PDA's superior beneficial effects may attribute to their desired porous structure, the well-balanced physicochemical properties, and the preserved dermis-specific ECM cues, which collectively modulated the expression of genes such as Wnt11, ATF3, and IL1β, and influenced the crucial endogenous signalling pathways. The findings of this study suggest that PDA is a clinical translatable material that possess high potential in reducing scar contraction. Current dermal analogues have supplied microenvironments that assist in wound healing but cannot inhibit scar contraction. dECMp ink was formulated and transformed into PDA endowed with a micron-scale designed spatial structure. The PDAs were neatly superior to split thickness skin grafts and commercial dermal templates in hindering scar contraction. The transcriptome data may reveal how at the molecular level the IS and skin wounds respond to biomaterial stimuli.

Abstract
Dysregulation of sequential and synchronized events of skin regeneration often results in the impairment of chronic wounds. Conventional wound dressings fail to trigger the normal healing mechanism owing to the pathophysiological conditions. Tissue engineering approaches that deal with the fabrication of dressings using various biomaterials, growth factors, and stem cells have shown accelerated healing outcomes. However, most of these technologies are associated with difficulties in scalability and cost-effectiveness of the products. In this review, we survey the latest developments in wound healing strategies that have recently emerged through the multidisciplinary approaches of bioengineering, nanotechnology, 3D bioprinting, and similar cutting-edge technologies to overcome the limitations of conventional therapies. We also focus on the potential of wearable technology that supports complete monitoring of the changes occurring in the wound microenvironment. In addition, we review the role of advanced devices that can precisely enable the delivery of nanotherapeutics, oligonucleotides, and external stimuli in a controlled manner. These technological advancements offer the opportunity to actively influence the regeneration process to benefit the treatment regime further. Finally, the clinical relevance, trajectory, and prospects of this field have been discussed in brief that highlights their potential in providing a beneficial wound care solution at an affordable cost.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting offers a great alternative to traditional techniques in tissue reconstruction, based on seeding cells manually into a scaffold, to better reproduce organs' complexity. When a suitable bioink is engineered with appropriate physicochemical properties, such a process can advantageously provide a spatial control of the patterning that improves tissue reconstruction. The design of an adequate bioink must fulfill a long list of criteria including biocompatibility, printability, and stability. In this context, we have developed a bioink containing a precisely controlled recombinant biopolymer, namely, elastin-like polypeptide (ELP). This material was further chemoselectively modified with cross-linkable moieties to provide a 3D network through photopolymerization. ELP chains were additionally either functionalized with a peptide sequence Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (GRGDS) or combined with collagen I to enable cell adhesion. Our ELP-based bioinks were found to be printable, while providing excellent mechanical properties such as stiffness and elasticity in their cross-linked form. Besides, they were demonstrated to be biocompatible, showing viability and adhesion of dermal normal human fibroblasts (NHF). Expressions of specific extracellular matrix (ECM) protein markers as pro-collagen I, elastin, fibrillin, and fibronectin were revealed within the 3D network containing cells after only 18 days of culture, showing the great potential of ELP-based bioinks for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Membranous extracellular matrix (ECM)-based scaffolds are one of the most promising biomaterials for skin wound healing, some of which, such as acellular dermal matrix, small intestinal submucosa, and amniotic membrane, have been clinically applied to treat chronic wounds with acceptable outcomes. Nevertheless, the wide clinical applications are always hindered by the poor mechanical properties, the uncontrollable degradation, and other factors after implantation. To highlight the feasible strategies to overcome the limitations, in this review, we first outline the current clinical use of traditional membranous ECM scaffolds for skin wound healing and briefly introduce the possible repair mechanisms; then, we discuss their potential limitations and further summarize recent advances in the scaffold modification and fabrication technologies that have been applied to engineer new ECM-based membranes. With the development of scaffold modification approaches, nanotechnology and material manufacturing techniques, various types of advanced ECM-based membranes have been reported in the literature. Importantly, they possess much better properties for skin wound healing, and would become promising candidates for future clinical translation.

Abstract
In recent years, smart/stimuli-responsive hydrogels have drawn tremendous attention for their varied applications, mainly in the biomedical field. These hydrogels are derived from different natural and synthetic polymers but are also composite with various organic and nano-organic fillers. The basic functions of smart hydrogels rely on their ability to change behavior; functions include mechanical, swelling, shaping, hydrophilicity, and bioactivity in response to external stimuli such as temperature, pH, magnetic field, electromagnetic radiation, and biological molecules. Depending on the final applications, smart hydrogels can be processed in different geometries and modalities to meet the complicated situations in biological media, namely, injectable hydrogels (following the sol-gel transition), colloidal nano and microgels, and three dimensional (3D) printed gel constructs. In recent decades smart hydrogels have opened a new horizon for scientists to fabricate biomimetic customized biomaterials for tissue engineering, cancer therapy, wound dressing, soft robotic actuators, and controlled release of bioactive substances/drugs. Remarkably, 4D bioprinting, a newly emerged technology/concept, aims to rationally design 3D patterned biological matrices from synthesized hydrogel-based inks with the ability to change structure under stimuli. This technology has enlarged the applicability of engineered smart hydrogels and hydrogel composites in biomedical fields. This paper aims to review stimuli-responsive hydrogels according to the kinds of external changes and t recent applications in biomedical and 4D bioprinting.

Abstract
Bioprinting is an emerging additive manufacturing technique which shows an outstanding potential for shaping customized functional substitutes for tissue engineering. Its introduction into the clinical space in order to replace injured organs could ideally overcome the limitations faced with allografts. Presently, even though there have been years of prolific research in the field, there is a wide gap to bridge in order to bring bioprinting from "bench to bedside". This is due to the fact that bioprinted designs have not yet reached the complexity required for clinical use, nor have clear GMP (good manufacturing practices) rules or precise regulatory guidelines been established. This review provides an overview of some of the most recent and remarkable achievements for skin, heart, pancreas and cartilage bioprinting breakthroughs while highlighting the critical shortcomings for each tissue type which is keeping this technique from becoming widespread reality.

Abstract
Large skin wounds pose a major clinical challenge. Scarcity of donor site and postsurgical scarring contribute to the incomplete or partial loss of function and aesthetic concerns in skin wound patients. Currently, a wide variety of skin grafts are being applied in clinical settings. Scaffolds are used to overcome the issues related to the misaligned architecture of the repaired skin tissues. The current review summarizes the contribution of biomaterials to wound healing and skin regeneration and addresses the existing limitations in skin grafting. Then, the clinically approved biologic and synthetic skin substitutes are extensively reviewed. Next, the techniques for modification of skin grafts aiming for enhanced tissue regeneration are outlined, and a summary of different growth factor delivery systems using biomaterials is presented. Considering the significant progress in biomaterial science and manufacturing technologies, the idea of biomaterial-based skin grafts with the ability for scarless wound healing and reconstructing full skin organ is more achievable than ever.

Abstract
Reconstruction of skin defects is often a challenging effort due to the currently limited reconstructive options. In this sense, tissue engineering has emerged as a possible alternative to replace or repair diseased or damaged tissues from the patient's own cells. A substantial number of tissue-engineered skin substitutes (TESSs) have been conceived and evaluated in vitro and in vivo showing promising results in the preclinical stage. However, only a few constructs have been used in the clinic. The lack of standardization in evaluation methods employed may in part be responsible for this discrepancy. This review covers the most well-known and up-to-date methods for evaluating the optimization of new TESSs and orientative guidelines for the evaluation of TESSs are proposed.

Abstract
3D skin equivalents have been increasingly used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, but the troublesome operation procedure and low throughput restricted their applications as in vitro safety evaluation models. Organ-on-a-chip, an emerging powerful tool in tissue/organ modeling, could be utilized to improve the function of the skin model compared with that of traditional static skin models, as well as innovate an automatic and modular way for construction or detection. In this research, we grew and differentiated human keratinocytes within a microfluidic chip to construct an integrated epidermis-on-a-chip (iEOC) system, which is specially designed to integrate multi-culture units with integrated bubble removal structures as well as trans-epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) electrodes for barrier function detection in situ. After 14 days of culture at the air-liquid interface (ALI), the constructed epidermis-on-a-chip demonstrated histological features similar to those observed in normal human epidermis: a proliferating basal layer and differentiating spinous, granular, and cornified layers, especially the TEER value reached 3 kΩ cm2 and prevented more than 99% of Cascade Blue-607 Da permeation owing to the enhanced barrier function. Further immunofluorescence analysis also indicated typical keratin expression including keratin-14, keratin-10, loricrin, involucrin, and filaggrin. With the TEER monitoring integration in the chip, it could be convenient for scale-up high-quality epidermis-on-chip fabrication and correlated investigation. Additionally, the iEOC can distinguish all the 10 known toxins and non-toxins in irritation measurement by MTT assay, which is consistent with animal testing according to the OECD. Preliminarily detection of irritation responses like inflammatory cytokines also predicted different irritation reactions. This high fidelity epidermis-on-a-chip could be a potential alternative in in vitro skin irritation evaluation. This microchip and automated microfluidic systems also pave the way for scalable testing in multidisciplinary industrial applications.

Abstract
Several hollow organs perform various crucial functions in the body and must be replaced, repaired, or augmented in many disease conditions. Fabrication of tissue analogues to these hollow organs is incredibly challenging. Still, recent advancements in biofabrication have allowed researchers to pursue the development of several hollow organs such as blood vessels, esophagus, trachea, urethra, and others. Materials like collagen, alginate, elastin, silk, fibrin, etc., have been predominantly used for organ development. However, the focus has been duly shifted toward decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) to develop tissue-specific hydrogels because they provide relevant biochemical cues to promote cellular activity. Still, the dECM-based hydrogels are mechanically weak to fabricate self-supporting tubular structures. Here, an innovative approach using the stereolithography apparatus (SLA) 3D printed framework has been implemented to achieve a self-supporting tubular structure using caprine esophagus muscle dECM hydrogel. A significant improvement in the mechanical stability of the biofabricated tissue has been observed within 7 days of culture. Interestingly, the encapsulated L929 mouse fibroblasts transdifferentiated into myofibroblasts because of the cues provided by the muscle dECM. Overall, the potential of an SLA-based 3D printing strategy to fabricate frameworks, especially for fabricating tubular organs/tissues using mechanocompromised hydrogel, has been demonstrated here.

Abstract
Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogels are being increasingly investigated for use in bio-inks for three-dimensional cell printing given their good cytocompatibility and biomimetic properties. The osmotic pressure and stiffness of bio-ink are important factors affecting the biological functions of printed cells. However, little attention has been given to the osmotic pressure and stiffness of the dECM bio-inks. Here, we compared three types of commonly used acidic solutions in the bio-fabrication of a tendon derived dECM bio-ink for 3D cell printing (0.5 M acetic acid, 0.1 M hydrochloric acid and 0.02 M hydrochloric acid). We found that low pH value of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid could accelerate the digestion process for dECM powders. This could lead to a much softer dECM hydrogel with storage modulus less than 100 Pa. This soft dECM hydrogel facilitated the spreading and proliferation of stem cells encapsulated within it. It also showed better tendon-inducing ability compared with two others much stiffer dECM hydrogels. However, this over-digested dECM hydrogel was more unstable as it could shrink with the culture time going on. For 0.5 M acetic acid made dECM bio-ink, the hyperosmotic state of the bio-ink led to much lower cellular viability rates. Postprocess (Dilution or dialysis) to tailor the osmotic pressure of hydrogels could be a necessary step before mixed with cells. Thus, kindly choosing the type and concentration of acidic solution is necessary for dECM bio-ink preparation. And a balance should be made between the digestion period, strength of acidic solution, as well as the size and concentration of the dECM powders. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The dECM bio-ink has been widely used in 3D cell printing for tissue engineering and organ modelling. In this study, we found that different types of acid have different digestion and dissolution status for the dECM materials. A much softer tendon derived dECM hydrogel with lower stiffness could facilitate the cellular spreading, proliferation and tendon differentiation. We also demonstrated that the osmotic pressure should be taken care of in the preparation of dECM bio-ink with 0.5 M acetic acid. Thus, kindly choosing the type and concentration of acidic solution is necessary for dECM bio-ink preparation.

Three-dimensional bioprinting of a full-thickness functional skin model using acellular dermal matrix and gelatin methacrylamide bioink. Acta Biomater 2021; 131:248-261. [PMID: 34265473 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.07.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2021] [Revised: 06/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Treatment of full-thickness skin defects still presents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technique offers a promising approach for fabricating skin substitutes. However, it is necessary to identify bioinks that have both sufficient mechanical properties and desirable biocompatibilities. In this study, we successfully fabricated acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) bioinks. The results demonstrated that ADM preserved the main extracellular matrix (ECM) components of the skin and GelMA had tunable mechanical properties. Both bioinks with shear-thinning properties were suitable for 3D bioprinting and GelMA bioink exhibited high printability. Additionally, the results revealed that 20% GelMA with sufficient mechanical properties was suitable to engineer epidermis, 1.5% ADM and 10% GelMA displayed relatively good cytocompatibilities. Here, we proposed a new 3D structure to simulate natural full-thickness skin, which included 20% GelMA with HaCaTs as an epidermal layer, 1.5% ADM with fibroblasts as the dermis, and 10% GelMA mesh with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as the vascular network and framework. We demonstrated that this 3D bioprinting functional skin model (FSM) could not only promote cell viability and proliferation, but also support epidermis reconstruction in vitro. When transplanted in vivo, the FSM could maintain cell viability for at least 1 week. Furthermore, the FSM promoted wound healing and re-epithelization, stimulated dermal ECM secretion and angiogenesis, and improved wound healing quality. The FSM may provide viable functional skin substitutes for future clinical applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We propose a new 3D structure to simulate natural full-thickness skin, which included 20% GelMA with HaCaTs as an epidermal layer, 1.5% ADM with fibroblasts as the dermis, and 10% GelMA mesh with HUVECs as the vascular network. It could not only maintain a moist microenvironment and barrier function, but also recreate the natural skin microenvironment to promote cell viability and proliferation. This may provide viable functional skin substitutes for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Tissues and organs are not composed of solely cellular components; instead, they converge with an extracellular matrix (ECM). The composition and function of the ECM differ depending on tissue types. The ECM provides a microenvironment that is essential for cellular functionality and regulation. However, during aging, the ECM undergoes significant changes along with the cellular components. The ECM constituents are over- or down-expressed, degraded, and deformed in senescence cells. ECM aging contributes to tissue dysfunction and failure of stem cell maintenance. Aging is the primary risk factor for prevalent diseases, and ECM aging is directly or indirectly correlated to it. Hence, rejuvenation strategies are necessitated to treat various age-associated symptoms. Recent rejuvenation strategies focus on the ECM as the basic biomaterial for regenerative therapies, such as tissue engineering. Modified and decellularized ECMs can be used to substitute aged ECMs and cell niches for culturing engineered tissues. Various tissue engineering approaches, including three-dimensional bioprinting, enable cell delivery and the fabrication of transplantable engineered tissues by employing ECM-based biomaterials.

Abstract
Hydrogels, due to their excellent biochemical and mechnical property, have shown attractive advantages in the field of wound dressings. However, a comprehensive review of the functional hydrogel as a wound dressing is still lacking. This work first summarizes the skin wound healing process and relates evaluation parameters and then reviews the advanced functions of hydrogel dressings such as antimicrobial property, adhesion and hemostasis, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation, substance delivery, self-healing, stimulus response, conductivity, and the recently emerged wound monitoring feature, and the strategies adopted to achieve these functions are all classified and discussed. Furthermore, applications of hydrogel wound dressing for the treatment of different types of wounds such as incisional wound and the excisional wound are summarized. Chronic wounds are also mentioned, and the focus of attention on infected wounds, burn wounds, and diabetic wounds is discussed. Finally, the future directions of hydrogel wound dressings for wound healing are further proposed.
