MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:2996. [PMID: 38930365 PMCID: PMC11206011 DOI: 10.3390/ma17122996] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Gelatin-based photo-crosslinkable hydrogels are promising scaffold materials to serve regenerative medicine. They are widely applicable in additive manufacturing, which allows for the production of various scaffold microarchitectures in line with the anatomical requirements of the organ to be replaced or tissue defect to be treated. Upon their in vivo utilization, the main bottleneck is to monitor cell colonization along with their degradation (rate). In order to enable non-invasive visualization, labeling with MRI-active components like N-(2,2-difluoroethyl)acrylamide (DFEA) provides a promising approach. Herein, we report on the development of a gelatin-methacryloyl-aminoethyl-methacrylate-based biomaterial ink in combination with DFEA, applicable in digital light processing-based additive manufacturing towards bone tissue regeneration. The fabricated hydrogel constructs show excellent shape fidelity in line with the printing resolution, as DFEA acts as a small molecular crosslinker in the system. The constructs exhibit high stiffness (E = 36.9 ± 4.1 kPa, evaluated via oscillatory rheology), suitable to serve bone regeneration and excellent MRI visualization capacity. Moreover, in combination with adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs), the 3D-printed constructs show biocompatibility, and upon 4 weeks of culture, the ASCs express the osteogenic differentiation marker Ca2+.

Abstract
With the rapid increase of the number of patients with gastrointestinal diseases in modern society, the need for the development of physiologically relevant in vitro intestinal models is key to improve the understanding of intestinal dysfunctions. This involves the development of a scaffold material exhibiting physiological stiffness and anatomical mimicry of the intestinal architecture. The current work focuses on evaluating the scaffold micromorphology of gelatin-methacryloyl-aminoethyl-methacrylate-based nonporous and porous intestinal 3D, intestine-like constructs, fabricated via digital light processing, on the cellular response. To this end, Caco-2 intestinal cells were utilized in combination with the constructs. Both porous and nonporous constructs promoted cell growth and differentiation toward enterocyte-like cells (VIL1, ALPI, SI, and OCLD expression showed via qPCR, ZO-1 via immunostaining). The porous constructs outperformed the nonporous ones regarding cell seeding efficiency and growth rate, confirmed by MTS assay, live/dead staining, and TEER measurements, due to the presence of surface roughness.

Abstract
3D bioprinting is a disruptive, computer-aided, and additive manufacturing technology that allows the obtention, layer-by-layer, of 3D complex structures. This technology is believed to offer tremendous opportunities in several fields including biomedical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. Several bioprinting processes and bio-ink materials have emerged recently. However, there is still a pressing need to develop low-cost sustainable bio-ink materials with superior qualities (excellent mechanical, viscoelastic and thermal properties, biocompatibility, and biodegradability). Marine-derived biomaterials, including polysaccharides and proteins, represent a viable and renewable source for bio-ink formulations. Therefore, the focus of this review centers around the use of marine-derived biomaterials in the formulations of bio-ink. It starts with a general overview of 3D bioprinting processes followed by a description of the most commonly used marine-derived biomaterials for 3D bioprinting, with a special attention paid to chitosan, glycosaminoglycans, alginate, carrageenan, collagen, and gelatin. The challenges facing the application of marine-derived biomaterials in 3D bioprinting within the biomedical and pharmaceutical fields along with future directions are also discussed.

Abstract
To provide prominent accessibility of fishmeal to the European population, the currently available, time- and cost-extensive feeding trials, which evaluate fish feed, should be replaced. The current paper reports on the development of a novel 3D culture platform, mimicking the microenvironment of the intestinal mucosa in vitro. The key requirements of the model include sufficient permeability for nutrients and medium-size marker molecules (equilibrium within 24 h), suitable mechanical properties (G' < 10 kPa), and close morphological similarity to the intestinal architecture. To enable processability with light-based 3D printing, a gelatin-methacryloyl-aminoethyl-methacrylate-based biomaterial ink is developed and combined with Tween 20 as porogen to ensure sufficient permeability. To assess the permeability properties of the hydrogels, a static diffusion setup is utilized, indicating that the hydrogel constructs are permeable for a medium size marker molecule (FITC-dextran 4 kg mol-1 ). Moreover, the mechanical evaluation through rheology evidence a physiologically relevant scaffold stiffness (G' = 4.83 ± 0.78 kPa). Digital light processing-based 3D printing of porogen-containing hydrogels results in the creation of constructs exhibiting a physiologically relevant microarchitecture as evidenced through cryo-scanning electron microscopy. Finally, the combination of the scaffolds with a novel rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) intestinal epithelial cell line (RTdi-MI) evidence scaffold biocompatibility.

Abstract
The macroscopic properties of materials are governed by their microscopic structure which depends on the materials' composition (i.e., building blocks) and processing conditions. In many classes of synthetic, bioinspired, or natural soft and/or nanomaterials, one can find structural anisotropy in the microscopic structure due to anisotropic building blocks and/or anisotropic domains formed through the processing conditions. Experimental characterization and complementary physics-based or data-driven modeling of materials' structural anisotropy are critical for understanding structure-property relationships and enabling targeted design of materials with desired macroscopic properties. In this pursuit, to interpret experimentally obtained characterization results (e.g., scattering profiles) of soft materials with structural anisotropy using data-driven computational approaches, there is a need for creating real space three-dimensional structures of the designer soft materials with realistic physical features (e.g., dispersity in building block sizes) and anisotropy (i.e., aspect ratios of the building blocks, their orientational and positional order). These real space structures can then be used to compute and complement experimentally obtained characterization results or be used as initial configurations for physics-based simulations/calculations that can then provide training data for machine learning models. To address this need, we present a new computational approach called CASGAP - Computational Approach for Structure Generation of Anisotropic Particles - for generating any desired three dimensional real-space structure of anisotropic building blocks (modeled as particles) adhering to target distributions of particle shape, size, and positional and orientational order.

Abstract
Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are renowned for their large, reversible, and anisotropic shape change in response to various external stimuli due to their lightly cross-linked polymer networks with an oriented mesogen direction, thus showing great potential for applications in robotics, bio-medics, electronics, optics, and energy. To fully take advantage of the anisotropic stimuli-responsive behaviors of LCEs, it is preferable to achieve a locally controlled mesogen alignment into monodomain orientations. In recent years, the application of 4D printing to LCEs opens new doors for simultaneously programming the mesogen alignment and the 3D geometry, offering more opportunities and higher feasibility for the fabrication of 4D-printed LCE objects with desirable stimuli-responsive properties. Here, the state-of-the-art advances in 4D printing of LCEs are reviewed, with emphasis on both the mechanisms and potential applications. First, the fundamental properties of LCEs and the working principles of the representative 4D printing techniques are briefly introduced. Then, the fabrication of LCEs by 4D printing techniques and the advantages over conventional manufacturing methods are demonstrated. Finally, perspectives on the current challenges and potential development trends toward the 4D printing of LCEs are discussed, which may shed light on future research directions in this new field.

Abstract
Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) have demonstrated potential for use in automotive, biomedical, and aerospace industries. However, ensuring the sustainability of these materials remains a challenge. Herein, a sustainable approach to synthesize a semicrystalline polymer using biomass-derivable precursors via catalyst-free polyesterification is presented. The synthesized biodegradable polymer, poly(1,8-octanediol-co-1,12-dodecanedioate-co-citrate) (PODDC), exhibits excellent shape-memory properties, as evidenced by good shape fixity and shape recovery ratios of 98%, along with a large reversible actuation strain of 28%. Without the use of a catalyst, the mild polymerization enables the reconfiguration of the partially cured two-dimensional (2D) film to a three-dimensional (3D) geometric form in the middle process. This study appears to be a step forward in developing sustainable SMPs and a simple way for constructing a 3D structure of a permanent shape.

Abstract
Light-activated polymerization is one of the most important and powerful strategies for fabrication of various types of advanced polymer materials. Because of many advantages, such as economy, efficiency, energy saving and being environmentally friendly, etc., photopolymerization is commonly used in different fields of science and technology. Generally, the initiation of polymerization reactions requires not only light energy but also the presence of a suitable photoinitiator (PI) in the photocurable composition. In recent years, dye-based photoinitiating systems have revolutionized and conquered the global market of innovative PIs. Since then, numerous photoinitiators for radical polymerization containing different organic dyes as light absorbers have been proposed. However, despite the large number of initiators designed, this topic is still relevant today. The interest towards dye-based photoinitiating systems continues to gain in importance, which is related to the need for new initiators capable of effectively initiating chain reactions under mild conditions. In this paper we present the most important information about photoinitiated radical polymerization. We describe the main directions for the application of this technique in various areas. Attention is mainly focused on the review of high-performance radical photoinitiators containing different sensitizers. Moreover, we present our latest achievements in the field of modern dye-based photoinitiating systems for the radical polymerization of acrylates.

Abstract
The three-dimensional printing (3DP) also known as the additive manufacturing (AM), a novel and futuristic technology that facilitates the printing of multiscale, biomimetic, intricate cytoarchitecture, function-structure hierarchy, multi-cellular tissues in the complicated micro-environment, patient-specific scaffolds, and medical devices. There is an increasing demand for developing 3D-printed products that can be utilized for organ transplantations due to the organ shortage. Nowadays, the 3DP has gained considerable interest in the tissue engineering (TE) field. Polylactide (PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL) are exemplary biomaterials with excellent physicochemical properties and biocompatibility, which have drawn notable attraction in tissue regeneration. Herein, the recent advancements in the PLA and PCL biodegradable polymer-based composites as well as their reinforcement with hydrogels and bio-ceramics scaffolds manufactured through 3DP are systematically summarized and the applications of bone, cardiac, neural, vascularized and skin tissue regeneration are thoroughly elucidated. The interaction between implanted biodegradable polymers, in-vivo and in-vitro testing models for possible evaluation of degradation and biological properties are also illustrated. The final section of this review incorporates the current challenges and future opportunities in the 3DP of PCL- and PLA-based composites that will prove helpful for biomedical engineers to fulfill the demands of the clinical field.
