Abstract
In vitro tumor models consisting of cell spheroids are increasingly used for mechanistic studies and pharmacological testing. However, unless vascularized, the availability of nutrients such as glucose to deeper layers of multicellular aggregates is limited. In addition, recent developments in cells-only biofabrication (e.g. 'scaffold-free bioprinting'), allow the creation of more complex spheroid-based structures, further exposing the cells to nutrient deprivation within these constructs. To explore the impact of glucose availability on such tumor-like structures, we used the CompuCell3D (CC3D) platform for modeling of tumor spheroids. By monitoring the types of cells, fusing pairs geometry and the distance between spheroids centers of mass, we made novel heuristic observations on how binary- and multi-spheroid fusions are impacted by glucose availability. At limiting glucose concentrations mimicking hypoglycemia we noted an abrupt collapse of the tumor spheroids, unexpectedly amplified by the contact with normal cell spheroids. At higher glucose concentrations, we found an increased intermixing of cancerous cells, strong anti-phase oscillations between proliferating and quiescent tumor cells and a structural instability of fusing tumor spheroids, leading to their re-fragmentation. In a model of tumor microenvironment composed of normal cell spheroids fusing around a tumoral one, the competition for glucose lead to either the tumor's disappearance, or to its steady expansion. Moreover, the invasion of this microenvironment by individual tumor cells was also strongly depended on the available glucose. In conclusion, we demonstrate the value of computational simulations for anticipating the properties of biofabricated tumor models, and in generating testable hypotheses regarding the relationship between cancer, nutrition and diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scientific activity for 3D bioprinting has increased over the past years focusing mainly on fully functional biological constructs to overcome issues related to organ transplants. This research performs a scientometric analysis on bioprinting based on a competitive technology intelligence (CTI) cycle, which assesses scientific documents to establish the publication rate of science and technology in terms of institutions, patents or journals. Although analyses of publications can be observed in the literature, the identification of the most influential authors and affiliations has not been addressed. This study involves the analysis of authors and affiliations, and their interactions in a global framework. We use network collaboration maps and Betweenness Centrality (BC) to identify of the most prominent actors in bioprinting, enhancing the CTI analysis. RESULTS 2088 documents were retrieved from Scopus database from 2007 to 2017, disclosing an exponential growth with an average publication increase of 17.5% per year. A threshold of five articles with ten or more cites was established for authors, while the same number of articles but cited five or more times was set for affiliations. The author with more publications was Atala A. (36 papers and a BC = 370.9), followed by Khademhosseini A. (30 documents and a BC = 2104.7), and Mironov (30 documents and BC = 2754.9). In addition, a small correlation was observed between the number of collaborations and the number of publications. Furthermore, 1760 institutions with a median of 10 publications were found, but only 20 within the established threshold. 30% of the 20 institutions had an external collaboration, and institutions located in and close to the life science cluster in Massachusetts showed a strong cooperation. The institution with more publications was the Harvard Medical School, 61 publications, followed by the Brigham and Women's hospital, 46 papers, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with 37 documents. CONCLUSIONS Network map analysis and BC allowed the identification of the most influential authors working on bioprinting and the collaboration between institutions was found limited. This analysis of authors and affiliations and their collaborations offer valuable information for the identification of potential associations for bioprinting researches and stakeholders.

Abstract
An increasing demand for directed assembly of biomaterials has inspired the development of bioprinting, which facilitates the assembling of both cellular and acellular inks into well-arranged three-dimensional (3D) structures for tissue fabrication. Although great advances have been achieved in the recent decade, there still exist issues to be addressed. Herein, a review has been systematically performed to discuss the considerations in the entire procedure of bioprinting. Though bioprinting is advancing at a rapid pace, it is seen that the whole process of obtaining tissue constructs from this technique involves multiple-stages, cutting across various technology domains. These stages can be divided into three broad categories: pre-bioprinting, bioprinting and post-bioprinting. Each stage can influence others and has a bearing on the performance of fabricated constructs. For example, in pre-bioprinting, tissue biopsy and cell expansion techniques are essential to ensure a large number of cells are available for mass organ production. Similarly, medical imaging is needed to provide high resolution designs, which can be faithfully bioprinted. In the bioprinting stage, compatibility of biomaterials is needed to be matched with solidification kinetics to ensure constructs with high cell viability and fidelity are obtained. On the other hand, there is a need to develop bioprinters, which have high degrees of freedom of movement, perform without failure concerns for several hours and are compact, and affordable. Finally, maturation of bioprinted cells are governed by conditions provided during the post-bioprinting process. This review, for the first time, puts all the bioprinting stages in perspective of the whole process of bioprinting, and analyzes their current state-of-the art. It is concluded that bioprinting community will recognize the relative importance and optimize the parameter of each stage to obtain the desired outcomes.

Abstract
The cardiopulmonary system is made up of the heart and the lungs, with the core function of one complementing the other. The unimpeded and optimal cycling of blood between these two systems is pivotal to the overall function of the entire human body. Although the function of the cardiopulmonary system appears uncomplicated, the tissues that make up this system are undoubtedly complex. Hence, damage to this system is undesirable as its capacity to self-regenerate is quite limited. The surge in the incidence and prevalence of cardiopulmonary diseases has reached a critical state for a top-notch response as it currently tops the mortality table. Several therapies currently being utilized can only sustain chronically ailing patients for a short period while they are awaiting a possible transplant, which is also not devoid of complications. Regenerative therapeutic techniques now appear to be a potential approach to solve this conundrum posed by these poorly self-regenerating tissues. Stem cell therapy alone appears not to be sufficient to provide the desired tissue regeneration and hence the drive for biomaterials that can support its transplantation and translation, providing not only physical support to seeded cells but also chemical and physiological cues to the cells to facilitate tissue regeneration. The cardiac and pulmonary systems, although literarily seen as just being functionally and spatially cooperative, as shown by their diverse and dissimilar adult cellular and tissue composition has been proven to share some common embryological codevelopment. However, necessitating their consideration for separate review is the immense adult architectural difference in these systems. This review also looks at details on new biological and synthetic biomaterials, tissue engineering, nanotechnology, and organ decellularization for cardiopulmonary regenerative therapies.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bio-printing is a revolutionary technology to reproduce a 3D functional living tissue scaffold in-vitro through controlled layer-by-layer deposition of biomaterials along with high precision positioning of cells. Due to its bio-compatibility, natural hydrogels are commonly considered as the scaffold material. However, the mechanical integrity of a hydrogel material, especially in 3D scaffold architecture, is an issue. In this research, a novel hybrid hydrogel, that is, sodium alginate with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is developed and systematic quantitative characterization tests are conducted to validate its printability, shape fidelity and cell viability. The outcome of the rheological and mechanical test, filament collapse and fusion test demonstrate the favorable shape fidelity. Three-dimensional scaffold structures are fabricated with the pancreatic cancer cell, BxPC3 and the 86% cell viability is recorded after 23 days. This hybrid hydrogel can be a potential biomaterial in 3D bioprinting process and the outlined characterization techniques open an avenue directing reproducible printability and shape fidelity.
