Abstract
3D-Bioprinting has seen a rapid expansion in the last few years, with an increasing number of reported bioinks. Alginate is a natural biopolymer that forms hydrogels by ionic cross-linking with calcium ions. Due to its biocompatibility and ease of gelation, it is an ideal ingredient for bioinks. This review focuses on recent advances on bioink formulations based on the combination of alginate with other polysaccharides. In particular, the molecular weight of the alginate and its loading level have an impact on the material's performance, as well as the loading of the divalent metal salt and its solubility, which affects the cross-linking of the gel. Alginate is often combined with other polysaccharides that can sigificantly modify the properties of the gel, and can optimise alginate for use in different biological applications. It is also possible to combine alginate with sacrificial polymers, which can temporarily reinforce the 3D printed construct, but then be removed at a later stage. Other additives can be formulated into the gels to enhance performance, including nanomaterials that tune rheological properties, peptides to encourage cell adhesion, or growth factors to direct stem cell differentiation. The ease of formulating multiple components into alginate gels gives them considerable potential for further development. In summary, this review will facilitate the identification of different alginate-polysaccharide bioink formulations and their optimal applications, and help inform the design of second generation bioinks, allowing this relatively simple gel system to achieve more sophisticated control over biological processes.

C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 125:112092.

Abstract
In osteochondral tissue engineering, while the biochemical and mechanical properties of hydrogels guide stem cell proliferation and differentiation, physical and chemical stimulators also affect the differentiation of stem cells. Herein, we presented a patient and tissue-specific strategy for the development of biomimetic osteochondral constructs with gradient compositions. Osteochondral constructs were fabricated by gradually printing of bio-inks consisting of therapeutic platelet-rich plasma (PRP), adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AdMSCs), and extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic hydrogel, microwave-assisted methacrylated gelatin (Gel-MA). Periodic application of light in the near infrared region (600-1200 nm wavelength) was used to induce platelet activation and also AdMSCs' differentiation. Gel-MA has the same structure as type I collagen and PRP has cartilage tissue-specific bioactive components, so they provide the appropriate environment for the differentiation of AdMSCs to osteochondral tissue. Histology, immunocytochemistry, and biochemical analyses indicated enhanced glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and calcium content, mineralization, and ECM production. Furthermore, RT-PCR results indicated the expressions of bone- and cartilage-specific genes. In conclusion, the periodically photoactivated hydrogels with relatively low degradation rate and high mechanical strength, and tissue-specific biomimetic structure promoted in-vitro osteochondral tissue formation including hyaline and hypertrophic cartilage and bone phases.

Abstract
Issues caused by maxillofacial tumours involve not only dealing with tumours but also repairing jaw bone defects. In traditional tumour therapy, the systemic toxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs, invasive surgical resection, intractable tumour recurrence, and metastasis are major threats to the patients' lives in the clinic. Fortunately, biomaterial-based intervention can improve the efficiency of tumour treatment and decrease the possibility of recurrence and metastasis, suggesting new promising antitumour therapies. In addition, maxillofacial bone tissue defects caused by tumours and their treatment can negatively affect the physiological and psychological health of patients, and investment in treatment can result in a multitude of burdens to society. Biomaterials are promising options because they have good biocompatibility and bioactive properties for stimulation of bone regeneration. More interestingly, an integrated material regimen that combines tumour therapy with bone repair is a promising treatment option. Herein, we summarized traditional and biomaterial-mediated maxillofacial tumour treatments and analysed biomaterials for bone defect repair. Furthermore, we proposed a promising and superior design of dual-functional biomaterials for simultaneous tumour therapy and bone regeneration to provide a new strategy for managing maxillofacial tumours and improve the quality of life of patients in the future.

Abstract
3D bioprinting has recently emerged as a very useful tool in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, developing suitable bioinks to fabricate specific tissue constructs remains a challenging task. Herein, we report on a nanocellulose/chitosan-based bioink, which is compatible with a 3D extrusion-based bioprinting technology, to design and engineer constructs for bone tissue engineering and regeneration applications. Bioinks were prepared using thermogelling chitosan, glycerophosphate, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). Formulations were optimized by varying the concentrations of glycerophosphate (80-300 mM), hydroxyethyl cellulose (0-0.5 mg/mL), and CNCs (0-2% w/v) to promote fast gelation kinetics (<7 s) at 37 °C and retain the shape integrity of constructs post 3D bioprinting. We investigated the effect of CNCs and pre-osteoblast cells (MC3T3-E1) on the rheological properties of bioinks, bioink printability, and mechanical properties of bioprinted scaffolds. We demonstrate that the addition of CNCs and cells (5 million cells/mL) significantly improved the viscosity of bioinks and the mechanical properties of chitosan scaffolds post-fabrication. The bioinks were biocompatible and printable at an optimized range of printing pressures (12-20 kPa) that did not compromise cell viability. The presence of CNCs promoted greater osteogenesis of MC3T3-E1 cells in chitosan scaffolds as shown by the upregulation of alkaline phosphatase activity, higher calcium mineralization, and extracellular matrix formation. The versatility of this CNCs-incorporated chitosan hydrogel makes it attractive as a bioink for 3D bioprinting to engineer scaffolds for bone tissue engineering and other therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Bioprinting of body tissues has gained great attention in recent years due to its unique advantages, including the creation of complex geometries and printing the patient-specific tissues with various drug and cell types. The most momentous part of the bioprinting process is bioink, defined as a mixture of living cells and biomaterials (especially hydrogels). Among different biomaterials, natural polymers are the best choices for hydrogel-based bioinks due to their intrinsic biocompatibility and minimal inflammatory response in body condition. Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel is one of the high-potential hydrogel-based bioinks due to its easy synthesis with low cost, great biocompatibility, transparent structure that is useful for cell monitoring, photocrosslinkability, and cell viability. Furthermore, the potential of adjusting properties of GelMA due to the synthesis protocol makes it a suitable choice for soft or hard tissues. In this review, different methods for the bioprinting of GelMA-based bioinks, as well as various effective process parameters, are reviewed. Also, several solutions for challenges in the printing of GelMA-based bioinks are discussed, and applications of GelMA-based bioprinted tissues argued as well. Impact statement Bioprinting has been demonstrated as a promising and alternative approach for organ transplantation to develop various types of living tissue. Bioinks, with great biological characteristics similar to the host tissues and rheological/flow features, are the first requirements for the successful bioprinting approach. Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel is one of the high-potential hydrogel-based bioinks. This review provides a comprehensive look at different methods for the bioprinting of GelMA-based bioinks and applications of GelMA-based bioprinted tissues for tissue repair.

Abstract
The most prevalent form of bioprinting-extrusion bioprinting-can generate structures from a diverse range of materials and viscosities. It can create personalized tissues that aid in drug testing and cancer research when used in combination with natural bioinks. This paper reviews natural bioinks and their properties and functions in hard and soft tissue engineering applications. It discusses agarose, alginate, cellulose, chitosan, collagen, decellularized extracellular matrix, dextran, fibrin, gelatin, gellan gum, hyaluronic acid, Matrigel, and silk. Multi-component bioinks are considered as a way to address the shortfalls of individual biomaterials. The mechanical, rheological, and cross-linking properties along with the cytocompatibility, cell viability, and printability of the bioinks are detailed as well. Future avenues for research into natural bioinks are then presented.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is a strategy for reconstructing bone lesions, which is rapidly developing in response to higher demands for bone repairing. Recently, this method, along with the emergence of functionally graded, biocompatible and biodegradable materials, has been expanded. Moreover, scaffolds with chemical, physical and external patterns have induced bone regeneration. However, the maintenance of healthy bone and its regeneration in the human body needs a series of complex and accurate processes. Hence, many studies have been accompanied for reconstructing bone by using blood-derived biomaterials, especially platelet-rich fabricates. The most important reason for using platelet-rich formulations in bone regeneration is based on releasing growth factors from alpha granules in platelets, which can induce osteogenesis. Moreover, the presence of fibrin nano-fiber structures as a constituent can provide a good substrate for cell attachments. This study attempts to review the history, structure, and biology of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) as well as in vitro, pre-clinical, and clinical studies on the use of PRF for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Sustaining the vital functions of cells outside the organism requires strictly defined parameters. In order to ensure their optimal growth and development, it is necessary to provide a range of nutrients and regulators. Hydrogels are excellent materials for 3D in vitro cell cultures. Their ability to retain large amounts of liquid, as well as their biocompatibility, soft structures, and mechanical properties similar to these of living tissues, provide appropriate microenvironments that mimic extracellular matrix functions. The wide range of natural and synthetic polymeric materials, as well as the simplicity of their physico-chemical modification, allow the mechanical properties to be adjusted for different requirements. Sodium alginate-based hydrogel is a frequently used material for cell culture. The lack of cell-interactive properties makes this polysaccharide the most often applied in combination with other materials, including gelatin. The combination of both materials increases their biological activity and improves their material properties, making this combination a frequently used material in 3D printing technology. The use of hydrogels as inks in 3D printing allows the accurate manufacturing of scaffolds with complex shapes and geometries. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the materials used for 3D cell cultures, which are mainly alginate-gelatin hydrogels, including their properties and potential applications.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have entered a new stage of development by the recent progress in biology, material sciences, and particularly an emerging additive manufacturing technique, three-dimensional (3D) printing. 3D printing is an advanced biofabrication technique which can generate patient-specific scaffolds with highly complex geometries while hosting cells and bioactive agents to accelerate tissue regeneration. Chitosan hydrogels themselves have been widely used for various biomedical applications due to its abundant availability, structural features and favorable biological properties; however, the 3D printing of chitosan-based hydrogels is still under early exploration. Therefore, 3D printing technologies represent a new avenue to explore the potential application of chitosan as an ink for 3D printing, or as a coating on other 3D printed scaffolds. The combination of chitosan-based hydrogels and 3D printing holds much promise in the development of next generation biomedical implants.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is a technology that can precisely fabricate customized tissues and organs. Hydrogel materials that can embed living cells for use in 3D printing are called bioinks. However, there are only limited options of bioinks currently because they require the following features at once, such as printability, repetitive layer-by-layer stacking (stackability), structure stabilization, and biological properties. A polyurethane-gelatin double network hydrogel bioink was previously reported to own tunable modulus through changing the solid content, but cell viability at the high solid content is inevitably reduced. In the present study, the reinforcement effects of a metal-organic framework (MOF), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), in the PUG bioink were evaluated. The printability, stackability, thermoresponsiveness, and shear-thinning behavior of the PUG-ZIF-8 composite hydrogels were examined. It was found that the PUG composite hydrogel containing 1250 μg/mL ZIF-8 crystals showed significant structural stability and modulus enhancement (∼2.5-fold). However, the PUG bioink containing 1250 μg/mL ZIF-8 crystals may lead to cell senescence or death. The cytocompatible concentration of ZIF-8 crystals in the bioink was about 875 μg/mL, and this concentration was much higher than the reported tolerable amount (∼50 μg/mL) of ZIF-8 for biomedical applications. The strong reinforcement effect of ZIF-8 and the drug-loading/sensing possibilities of MOFs may open new opportunities for using MOFs in 3D bioprinting applications.

Abstract
The application of additive manufacturing in the biomedical field has become a hot topic in the last decade owing to its potential to provide personalized solutions for patients. Different bioinks have been designed trying to obtain a unique concoction that addresses all the needs for tissue engineering and drug delivery purposes, among others. Despite the remarkable progress made, the development of suitable bioinks which combine printability, cytocompatibility, and biofunctionality is still a challenge. In this sense, the well-established synthetic and functionalization routes to prepare nanoparticles with different functionalities make them excellent candidates to be combined with polymeric systems in order to generate suitable multi-functional bioinks. In this review, we briefly discuss the most recent advances in the design of functional nanocomposite hydrogels considering their already evaluated or potential use as bioinks. The scientific development over the last few years is reviewed, focusing the discussion on the wide range of functionalities that can be incorporated into 3D bioprinted constructs through the addition of multifunctional nanoparticles in order to increase their regenerative potential in the field of tissue engineering.

Abstract
Biomolecule carrier structures have attracted substantial interest owing to their potential utilizations in the field of bone tissue engineering. In this study, MOF-embedded electrospun fiber scaffold for the controlled release of BMP-6 was developed for the first time, to enrich bone regeneration efficacy. The scaffolds were achieved by first, one-pot rapid crystallization of BMP-6 encapsulated ZIF-8 nanocrystals-as a novel carrier for growth factor molecules- and then electrospinning of the blending solution composed of poly (ε-caprolactone) and BMP-6 encapsulated ZIF-8 nanocrystals. BMP-6 molecule encapsulation efficiency for ZIF-8 nanocrystals was calculated as 98%. The in-vitro studies showed that, the bioactivity of BMP-6 was preserved and the release lasted up to 30 days. The release kinetics fitted the Korsmeyer-Peppas model exhibiting a pseudo-Fickian behavior. The in-vitro osteogenesis studies revealed the superior effect of sustained release of BMP-6 towards osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts. In-vivo studies also revealed that the sustained slow release of BMP-6 was responsible for the generation of well-mineralized, new bone formation in a rat cranial defect. Our results proved that; MOF-carriers embedded in electrospun scaffolds can be used as an effective platform for bone regeneration in bone tissue engineering applications. The proposed approach can easily be adapted for various growth factor molecules for different tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to obtain stable Kappa carrageenan (κCar) hydrogel that could be used as a bioink for cartilage regeneration. For this purpose, we described an effective and considerably faster methacrylation process by using microwave energy. Thus, microwave-methacrylated κCar (Mw-κCar-MA) with ≥85% degree of methacrylation (DM) was synthesized despite the use of a low concentration of methacrylic anhydride (MA) at 1000 W in 5 min. Then, Mw-κCar-MA was photo-crosslinked by only using UV irradiation for 40 s. Characterization studies proved that Mw-κCar-MA hydrogels were stronger and have lower weight loss (~20% at 30 days) than that of conventionally synthesized κCar-MA hydrogels. Viscosities of the Mw-κCar-MA hydrogels were found to be sufficient to use in 3D bioprinters. Furthermore, Mw-κCar-MA hydrogels enhanced the viability, proliferation, and GAG deposition of ATDC5 chondrogenic cells. Therefore, we proposed that Mw-κCar-MA can be considered as a suitable bioink for cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
For extrusion-based bioprinting, the inks must be printable and rapidly present sufficient mechanical properties to support additional layers and provide a cohesive, manipulable structure. Thermosensitive hydrogels may be interesting candidates. However, the use of these materials is particularly challenging, since their rheological properties evolve with time and temperature. In this work, a rheological approach to characterize the printability of chitosan-based thermosensitive inks was developed. The method consists of evaluating: (1) the gelation kinetic at room temperature and at 37 °C; (2) shear-thinning behavior to estimate the shear rate applied during printing as a function of printing parameters; and (3) the viscosity after shear removal (recovery test) to simulate behaviour after biomaterial deposition. Hydrogels containing 2 and 3% w v-1 chitosan, combined with different gelling agents (sodium hydrogen carbonate (SHC), phosphate buffer, beta-glycerophosphate (BGP)) were tested, and compared with alginate/gelatin bioink as controls. To correlate the rheological studies with real printing conditions, a 3D-Discovery bioprinter was used to print hydrogels and the visual aspect of the printed structure was observed. Unconfined compressive tests were carried out to study the impact of applied shear rate during printing on the mechanical properties of printed structures. All pre-hydrogel solutions presented shear-thinning properties. The recovery of viscosity was found to depend on the hydrogel formulation, as well as the level of shear rate and the state of gelation at the time of printing. Formulations made with SHC and phosphate buffer presented too rapid gelation and phase separation, leading to poor printing results. One particularly promising formulation composed of SHC and BGP, when printed at a shear rate of 140 s-1, before its gelation time (t g ⩽ 15 min), resulted in good printability and 3D structures with rigidity comparable with the alginate/gelatin bioink. The methodology introduced in this paper could be used to evaluate the printability of other time- and temperature-dependent biomaterial inks in the future.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) encompasses the field of biomaterials, cells, and bioactive molecules to successfully guide the growth and repair of bone tissue. Current BTE strategies rely on delivering osteogenic molecules or cells via scaffolding materials. However, growth factor- and stem cell-based treatments have several limitations, such as source restriction, low stability, difficulties in predicting long-term efficacy, and high costs, among others. These issues have promoted the development of material-based therapy with properties of accessibility, high stability, tunable efficacy, and low-cost production. Hydrogels are widely used in BTE applications because of their unique hydrophilic nature and tunable physicochemical properties to mimic the native bone environment. However, current hydrogel materials are not ideal candidates due to minimal osteogenic capability on their own. Therefore, recent studies of BTE hydrogels attempt to counterbalance these issues by modifying their biophysical properties. In this article, we review recent progress in the design of hydrogels to instruct osteogenic potential, and present strategies developed to precisely control its bone healing properties.

Abstract
The musculoskeletal system is essential for maintaining posture, protecting organs, facilitating locomotion, and regulating various cellular and metabolic functions. Injury to this system due to trauma or wear is common, and severe damage may require surgery to restore function and prevent further harm. Autografts are the current gold standard for the replacement of lost or damaged tissues. However, these grafts are constrained by limited supply and donor site morbidity. Allografts, xenografts, and alloplastic materials represent viable alternatives, but each of these methods also has its own problems and limitations. Technological advances in three-dimensional (3D) printing and its biomedical adaptation, 3D bioprinting, have the potential to provide viable, autologous tissue-like constructs that can be used to repair musculoskeletal defects. Though bioprinting is currently unable to develop mature, implantable tissues, it can pattern cells in 3D constructs with features facilitating maturation and vascularization. Further advances in the field may enable the manufacture of constructs that can mimic native tissues in complexity, spatial heterogeneity, and ultimately, clinical utility. This review studies the use of 3D bioprinting for engineering bone, cartilage, muscle, tendon, ligament, and their interface tissues. Additionally, the current limitations and challenges in the field are discussed and the prospects for future progress are highlighted.

Abstract
The lack of in vitro tissue and organ models capable of mimicking human physiology severely hinders the development and clinical translation of therapies and drugs with higher in vivo efficacy. Bioprinting allow us to fill this gap and generate 3D tissue analogues with complex functional and structural organization through the precise spatial positioning of multiple materials and cells. In this review, we report the latest developments in terms of bioprinting technologies for the manufacturing of cellular constructs with particular emphasis on material extrusion, jetting, and vat photopolymerization. We then describe the different base polymers employed in the formulation of bioinks for bioprinting and examine the strategies used to tailor their properties according to both processability and tissue maturation requirements. By relating function to organization in human development, we examine the potential of pluripotent stem cells in the context of bioprinting toward a new generation of tissue models for personalized medicine. We also highlight the most relevant attempts to engineer artificial models for the study of human organogenesis, disease, and drug screening. Finally, we discuss the most pressing challenges, opportunities, and future prospects in the field of bioprinting for tissue engineering (TE) and regenerative medicine (RM).

Abstract
Nowadays, scientists focus on the development of tissue-specific and personalized bio-ink that can be used in 3D bioprinting technologies. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a person-specific source that is used as a therapeutic adjunct for the treatment of cartilage damage because it offers a cocktail of growth factors that are necessary for wound healing and tissue regeneration. However, PRP treatments in the clinic are not satisfactory and require upgrading, especially the point of maintaining bioactivity. In this study, we presented PRP as a photo-activated and photo-crosslinkable bio-ink in terms of tissue-specific structures for the first time. We achieved long-term and constant rate growth factor release and bioactivity protection of PRP with satisfactory mechanical characteristics. Photo-crosslinked PRP hydrogel was enabled by the addition of microwave-induced methacrylated gelatin (Gel-MA), which is connected to platelets in PRP via integrin receptors in its structure and chemically cross-linked upon UV irradiation (300-500 nm). Photo-activation of PRP was realized by a polychromatic light source in the near-infrared region (PAC, 600-1200 nm). Our results showed that Gel-MA/PRP hydrogels with the desired mechanical properties (low degradation rate and high mechanical strength) released growth factors at a constant rate for the long-term by the periodic PAC application. In vitro cell culture studies (viability, proliferation, morphology, histology, immunochemistry, biochemistry, gene expression analyses) proved that proliferation and differentiation of the ATDC5 cells increased in the periodically light-applied Gel-MA/PRP hydrogel without any external chemical agents.

Abstract
Critical-sized bone defect repair in patients with diabetes mellitus remains a challenge in clinical treatment because of dysfunction of macrophage polarization and the inflammatory microenvironment in the bone defect region. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted scaffolds loaded with live cells and bioactive factors can improve cell viability and the inflammatory microenvironment and further accelerating bone repair. Here, we used modified bioinks comprising gelatin, gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA), and 4-arm poly (ethylene glycol) acrylate (PEG) to fabricate 3D bioprinted scaffolds containing BMSCs, RAW264.7 macrophages, and BMP-4-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). Addition of MSNs effectively improved the mechanical strength of GelMA/gelatin/PEG scaffolds. Moreover, MSNs sustainably released BMP-4 for long-term effectiveness. In 3D bioprinted scaffolds, BMP-4 promoted the polarization of RAW264.7 to M2 macrophages, which secrete anti-inflammatory factors and thereby reduce the levels of pro-inflammatory factors. BMP-4 released from MSNs and BMP-2 secreted from M2 macrophages collectively stimulated the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs in the 3D bioprinted scaffolds. Furthermore, in calvarial critical-size defect models of diabetic rats, 3D bioprinted scaffolds loaded with MSNs/BMP-4 induced M2 macrophage polarization and improved the inflammatory microenvironment. And 3D bioprinted scaffolds with MSNs/BMP-4, BMSCs, and RAW264.7 cells significantly accelerated bone repair. In conclusion, our results indicated that implanting 3D bioprinted scaffolds containing MSNs/BMP-4, BMSCs, and RAW264.7 cells in bone defects may be an effective method for improving diabetic bone repair, owing to the direct effects of BMP-4 on promoting osteogenesis of BMSCs and regulating M2 type macrophage polarization to improve the inflammatory microenvironment and secrete BMP-2. The GelMA/gelatin/PEG/MSN composite bioinks showed satisfactory printability, mechanical stability, and biocompatibility. The sustained release of BMP-4 from MSNs induced M2 macrophage polarization and thereby inhibited inflammatory reactions. Loading of BMP-4 and secretion of BMP-2 by M2 type macrophages accelerated bone repair in DM bone defects.

Abstract
The field of tissue engineering has numerous potential for modified therapeutic results and has been inspired by enhancements in bioengineering at the recent decades. The techniques of regenerating tissues and assembling functional paradigms that are responsible for repairing, maintaining, and revitalizing lost organs and tissues have affected the entire spectrum of health care studies. Strategies to combine bioactive molecules, biocompatible materials and cells are important for progressing the renewal of damaged tissues. Hydrogels have been utilized as one of the most popular cell substrate/carrier in tissue engineering since previous decades, respect to their potential to retain a 3D structure, to protect the embedded cells, and to mimic the native ECM. The hydrophilic nature of hydrogels can provide an ideal milieu for cell viability and structure, which simulate the native tissues. Hydrogel systems have been applied as a favorable matrix for growth factor delivery and cell immobilization. This study reviews a brief explanation of the structure, characters, applications, fabrication methods, and future outlooks of stimuli responsive hydrogels in tissue engineering and, in particular, 3D bioprinting.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis is a complex disease in orthopedics mainly caused by bacterial pathogens invading bone or bone marrow. The treatment of osteomyelitis is highly difficult and it is a major challenge in orthopedic surgery. The long-term systemic use of antibiotics may lead to antibiotic resistance and has limited effects on eradicating local biofilms. Localized antibiotic delivery after surgical debridement can overcome the problem of antibiotic resistance and reduce systemic toxicity. Chitosan, a special cationic polysaccharide, is a product extracted from the deacetylation of chitin. It has numerous advantages, such as nontoxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Recently, chitosan has attracted significant attention in bacterial inhibition and drug delivery. Because chitosan contains many functional bioactive groups conducive to chemical reaction and modification, some chitosan-based biomaterials have been applied as the local antibiotic delivery systems in the treatment of osteomyelitis. This review aims to introduce recent advances in the biomedical applications of chitosan-based drug delivery systems in osteomyelitis treatment and to highlight the perspectives for further studies.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has recently advanced as an important tool to produce viable constructs that can be used for regenerative purposes or as tissue models. To develop biomimetic and sustainable 3D constructs, several important processing aspects need to be considered, among which crosslinking is most important for achieving desirable biomechanical stability of printed structures, which is reflected in subsequent behavior and use of these constructs. In this work, crosslinking methods used in 3D bioprinting studies are reviewed, parameters that affect bioink chemistry are discussed, and the potential toward improving crosslinking outcomes and construct performance is highlighted. Furthermore, current challenges and future prospects are discussed. Due to the direct connection between crosslinking methods and properties of 3D bioprinted structures, this Review can provide a basis for developing necessary modifications to the design and manufacturing process of advanced tissue-like constructs in future.

Abstract
The growing demand for personalized implants and tissue scaffolds requires advanced biomaterials and processing strategies for the fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) structures mimicking the complexity of the extracellular matrix. During the last years, biofabrication approaches like 3D printing of cell-laden (soft) hydrogels have been gaining increasing attention to design such 3D functional environments which resemble natural tissues (and organs). However, often these polymeric hydrogels show poor stability and low printing fidelity and hence various approaches in terms of multi-material mixtures are being developed to enhance pre- and post-printing features as well as cytocompatibility and post-printing cellular development. Additionally, bioactive properties improve the binding to the surrounding (host) tissue at the implantation site. In this review we focus on the state-of-the-art of a particular type of heterogeneous bioinks, which are composed of polymeric hydrogels incorporating inorganic bioactive fillers. Such systems include isotropic and anisotropic silicates like bioactive glasses and nanoclays or calcium-phosphates like hydroxyapatite (HAp), which provide in-situ crosslinking effects and add extra functionality to the matrix, for example mineralization capability. The present review paper discusses in detail such bioactive composite bioink systems based on the available literature, revealing that a great variety has been developed with substantially improved bioprinting characteristics, in comparison to the pure hydrogel counterparts, and enabling high viability of printed cells. The analysis of the results of the published studies demonstrates that bioactive fillers are a promising addition to hydrogels to print stable 3D constructs for regeneration of tissues. Progress and challenges of the development and applications of such composite bioink approaches are discussed and avenues for future research in the field are presented. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biofabrication, involving the processing of biocompatible hydrogels including cells (bioinks), is being increasingly applied for developing complex tissue and organ mimicking structures. A variety of multi-material bioinks is being investigated to bioprint 3D constructs showing shape stability and long-term biological performance. Composite hydrogel bioinks incorporating inorganic bioreactive fillers for 3D bioprinting are the subject of this review paper. Results reported in the literature highlight the effect of bioactive fillers on bioink properties, printability and on cell behavior during and after printing and provide important information for optimizing the design of future bioinks for biofabrication, exploiting the extra functionalities provided by inorganic fillers. Further functionalization with drugs/growth factors can target enhanced printability and local drug release for more specialized biomedical therapies.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based bio-inks have recently attracted more attention for 3D printing applications in tissue engineering due to their remarkable intrinsic properties, such as a cell supporting environment. However, their usually weak mechanical properties lead to poor printability and low stability of the obtained structures. To obtain good shape fidelity, current approaches based on extrusion printing use high viscosity solutions, which can compromise cell viability. This paper presents a novel bio-printing methodology based on a dual-syringe system with a static mixing tool that allows in situ crosslinking of a two-component hydrogel-based ink in the presence of living cells. The reactive hydrogel system consists of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCh) and partially oxidized hyaluronic acid (HAox) that undergo fast self-covalent crosslinking via Schiff base formation. This new approach allows us to use low viscosity solutions since in situ gelation provides the appropriate structural integrity to maintain the printed shape. The proposed bio-ink formulation was optimized to match crosslinking kinetics with the printing process and multi-layered 3D bio-printed scaffolds were successfully obtained. Printed scaffolds showed moderate swelling, good biocompatibility with embedded cells, and were mechanically stable after 14 days of the cell culture. We envision that this straightforward, powerful, and generalizable printing approach can be used for a wide range of materials, growth factors, or cell types, to be employed for soft tissue regeneration.

Effects of Starch Incorporation on the Physicochemical Properties and Release Kinetics of Alginate-Based 3D Hydrogel Patches for Topical Delivery. Pharmaceutics 2020; 12:pharmaceutics12080719. [PMID: 32751818 PMCID: PMC7466037 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics12080719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 07/24/2020] [Accepted: 07/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The development of printable hydrogel inks for extrusion-based 3D printing is opening new possibilities to the production of new and/or improved pharmaceutical forms, specifically for topical application. Alginate and starch are natural polysaccharides that have been extensively exploited due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, viscosity properties, low toxicity, and relatively low cost. This research work aimed to study the physicochemical and release kinetic effects of starch incorporation in alginate-based 3D hydrogel patches for topical delivery using a quality by design approach. The incorporation of a pregelatinized starch is also proposed as a way to improve the properties of the drug delivery system while maintaining the desired quality characteristics. Critical material attributes and process parameters were identified, and the sensitivity and adequacy of each parameter were statistically analyzed. The impact of alginate, starch, and CaCl2·2H2O amounts on relevant quality attributes was estimated crosswise. The amount of starch revealed a synergetic impact on porosity (p = 0.0021). An evident increase in the size and quantity of open pores were detected in the as printed patches as well as after crosslinking (15.6 ± 5.2 µm). In vitro drug release studies from the optimized alginate-starch 3D hydrogel patch, using the probe Rhodamine B, showed an initial high burst release, followed by a controlled release mechanism. The results obtained also showed that the viscoelastic properties, printing accuracy, gelation time, microstructure, and release rates can be modulated by varying the amount of starch added to the system. Furthermore, these results can be considered an excellent baseline for future drug release modulation strategies.

Abstract
The development of extrusion-based bioprinting for tissue engineering is conditioned by the design of bioinks displaying adequate printability, shape stability, and postprinting bioactivity. In this context, simple bioink formulations, made of cells supported by a polymer matrix, often lack the necessary versatility. To address this issue, intense research work has been focused on introducing colloidal particles into the ink formulation. By creating weak cross-links between polymer chains, added particles modify the rheology and mechanical behavior of bioinks to improve their printability and structural integrity. Additionally, nano- and microscopic particles display composition- and structure-specific properties that can affect the cellular behavior and enhance the formation of tissue within the printed material. This Review offers a comprehensive picture of the role of colloids in bioprinting from a physicochemical and biological perspective. As such, it provides guidance on devising adaptable bioinks for the fabrication of biomimetic tissues.

Abstract
Bone tissue-derive biomaterials have become of great interest to treat diseases of the skeletal system. Biological scaffolds of demineralized and decellularized extracellular matrices (ECM) have been developed and one of these options are ECM hydrogels derived from bovine bone. Nanomaterials may be able to regulate stem cell differentiation due to their unique physical-chemical properties. The present work aimed to evaluate the osteoinductive effects of ECM hydrogels associated with barium titanate nanoparticles (BTNP) on dental pulp cells derived from exfoliated teeth. The addition of BTNP in the ECM derived hydrogel did not affect cell proliferation and the formation of bone nodules. Furthermore, it increased the expression of bone alkaline phosphatase. The results demonstrated that the nanobiocomposites were able to promote the osteogenic differentiation, even in the absence of chemical inducing factors for osteogenic differentiation. In conclusion, bovine bone ECM hydrogel combined with BTNP presented and increased expression of markers of osteogenic differentiation in the absence of chemical inducing factors.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is considered as a novel approach in biofabricating cell-laden constructs that could potentially be used to promote skin regeneration following injury. In this study, a novel crosslinked chitosan (CH)–genipin (GE) bioink laden with keratinocyte and human dermal fibroblast cells was developed and printed successfully using an extruder-based bioprinter. By altering the composition and degree of CH–GE crosslinking, bioink printability was further assessed and compared with a commercial bioink. Rheological analysis showed that the viscosity of the optimised bioink was in a suitable range that facilitated reproducible and reliable printing by applying low pressures ranging from 20–40 kPa. The application of low printing pressures proved vital for viability of cells loaded within the bioinks. Further characterisation using MTT assay showed that cells were still viable within the printed construct at 93% despite the crosslinking, processing and after subjecting to physiological conditions for seven days. The morphological study of the printed cells showed that they were mobile within the bioink. Furthermore, the multi-layered 3D printed constructs demonstrated excellent self-supportive structures in a consistent manner.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) has gained particular attention in biomedical applications due to its biocompatibility, antibacterial feature, and biodegradability. Hence, many studies have focused on the manufacturing of CS films, scaffolds, particulate, and inks via different production methods. Nowadays, with the possibility of the precise adjustment of porosity size and shape, fiber size, suitable interconnectivity of pores, and creation of patient-specific constructs, 3D printing has overcome the limitations of many traditional manufacturing methods. Therefore, the fabrication of 3D printed CS scaffolds can lead to promising advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. A review of additive manufacturing types, CS-based printed constructs, their usages as biomaterials, advantages, and drawbacks can open doors to optimize CS-based constructions for biomedical applications. The latest technological issues and upcoming capabilities of 3D printing with CS-based biopolymers for different applications are also discussed. This review article will act as a roadmap aiming to investigate chitosan as a new feedstock concerning various 3D printing approaches which may be employed in biomedical fields. In fact, the combination of 3D printing and CS-based biopolymers is extremely appealing particularly with regard to certain clinical purposes. Complications of 3D printing coupled with the challenges associated with materials should be recognized to help make this method feasible for wider clinical requirements. This strategy is currently gaining substantial attention in terms of several industrial biomedical products. In this review, the key 3D printing approaches along with revealing historical background are initially presented, and ultimately, the applications of different 3D printing techniques for fabricating chitosan constructs will be discussed. The recognition of essential complications and technical problems related to numerous 3D printing techniques and CS-based biopolymer choices according to clinical requirements is crucial. A comprehensive investigation will be required to encounter those challenges and to completely understand the possibilities of 3D printing in the foreseeable future.

Abstract
Although three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology is rapidly developing, the design strategies for biocompatible 3D-printable bioinks remain a challenge. In this study, we developed a machine learning-based method to design 3D-printable bioink using a model system with naturally derived biomaterials. First, we demonstrated that atelocollagen (AC) has desirable physical properties for printing compared to native collagen (NC). AC gel exhibited weakly elastic and temperature-responsive reversible behavior forming a soft cream-like structure with low yield stress, whereas NC gel showed highly crosslinked and temperature-responsive irreversible behavior resulting in brittleness and high yield stress. Next, we discovered a universal relationship between the mechanical properties of ink and printability that is supported by machine learning: a high elastic modulus improves shape fidelity and extrusion is possible below the critical yield stress; this is supported by machine learning. Based on this relationship, we derived various formulations of naturally derived bioinks that provide high shape fidelity using multiple regression analysis. Finally, we produced a 3D construct of a cell-laden hydrogel with a framework of high shape fidelity bioink, confirming that cells are highly viable and proliferative in the 3D constructs.

Abstract
Bioprinting, a promising field in regenerative medicine, holds great potential to create three-dimensional, defect-specific vascularized bones with tremendous opportunities to address unmet craniomaxillofacial reconstructive challenges. A cytocompatible bioink is a critical prerequisite to successfully regenerate functional bone tissue. Synthetic self-assembling peptides have a nanofibrous structure resembling the native extracellular matrix (ECM), making them an excellent bioink component. Amorphous magnesium phosphates (AMPs) have shown greater levels of resorption while maintaining high biocompatibility, osteoinductivity, and low inflammatory response, as compared to their calcium phosphate counterparts. Here, we have established a novel bioink formulation (ECM/AMP) that combines an ECM-based hydrogel containing 2% octapeptide FEFEFKFK and 98% water with AMP particles to realize high cell function with desirable bioprintability. We analyzed the osteogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) encapsulated in the bioink, as well as in vivo bone regeneration, to define the potential of the formulated bioink as a growth factor-free bone-forming strategy. Cell-laden AMP-modified bioprinted constructs showed an improved cell morphology but similar cell viability (∼90%) compared to their AMP-free counterpart. In functional assays, the cell-laden bioprinted constructs modified with AMP exhibited a high level of mineralization and osteogenic gene expression without the use of growth factors, thus suggesting that the presence of AMP-triggered DPSCs' osteogenic differentiation. Cell-free ECM-based bioprinted constructs were implanted in vivo. In comparison with the ECM group, bone volume per total volume for ECM/1.0AMP was approximately 1.7- and 1.4-fold higher at 4 and 8 weeks, respectively. Further, a significant increase in the bone density was observed in ECM/1.0AMP from 4 to 8 weeks. These results demonstrate that the presence of AMP in the bioink significantly increased bone formation, thus showing promise for in situ bioprinting strategies. We foresee significant potential in translating this innovative bioink toward the regeneration of patient-specific bone tissue for regenerative dentistry.

Abstract
Chitosan is a natural polymer widely investigated and used due to its antibacterial activity, mucoadhesive, analgesic, and hemostatic properties. Its biocompatibility makes chitosan a favorable candidate for different applications in tissue engineering (TE), such as skin, bone, and cartilage tissue regeneration. Despite promising results obtained with chitosan 3D scaffolds, significant challenges persist in fabricating hydrogel structures with ordered architectures and biological properties to mimic native tissues. In this work, chitosan has been investigated aiming at designing and fabricating uniaxial scaffolds which can be proposed for the regeneration of anisotropic tissues (i.e., skin, skeletal muscle, myocardium) by 3D printing technology. Chitosan was blended with gelatin to form a polyelectrolyte complex in two different ratios, to improve printability and shape retention. After the optimization of the printing process parameters, different crosslinking conditions were investigated, and the 3D printed samples were characterized. Tripolyphosphate (TPP) was used as crosslinker for chitosan-based scaffolds. For the optimization of the printing temperature, the sol-gel temperature of the chitosan-gelatin blend was determined by rheological measurements and extrusion temperature was set to 20°C (i.e., below sol-gel temperature). The shape fidelity and surface morphology of the 3D printed scaffolds after crosslinking was dependent on crosslinking conditions. Interestingly, mechanical properties of the scaffolds were also significantly affected by the crosslinking conditions, nonetheless the stability of the scaffolds was strongly determined by the content of gelatin in the blend. Lastly, in vitro cytocompatibility test was performed to evaluate the interactions between L929 cells and the 3D printed samples. 2% w/v chitosan and 4% w/v gelatin hydrogel scaffolds crosslinked with 10% TPP, 30 min at 4°C following 30 min at 37°C have shown cytocompatible and stable characteristics, compared to all other tested conditions, showing suitable properties for the regeneration of anisotropic tissues.
