Bioprinting in Vascularization Strategies
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has revolutionized tissue engineering field because of its excellent potential of accurately positioning cell-laden constructs. One of the main challenges in the formation of functional engineered tissues is the lack of an efficient and extensive network of microvessels to support cell viability. By printing vascular cells and appropriate biomaterials,...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of fiber reinforced polymer scaffolds based on natural fibers and polymer for bone tissue engineering application
A wide range of materials and scaffolding fabrication methods for bone tissue engineering have beenexplored recently. Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) system appears to be a suitable system. By the exclusiveuse of biocompatible or bio-absorbable polymers and fibers, novel generation of scaffolds for applicationsin tissue engineering can be prepared. Mulberry Silk as highlighted...
متن کاملFabrication of Polymer Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering
A new approach to the fabrication of individual implants and scaffolds for tissue engineering—surface selective laser sintering (SSLS)—is proposed and realized. In contrast to the conventional selective laser sintering, the SSLS method makes it possible to sinter polymer microparticles and melt the near-surface layer rather than the microparticle as a whole. The effect of the laser radiation pa...
متن کاملEfficient in vivo vascularization of tissue-engineering scaffolds.
The success of tissue engineering depends on the rapid and efficient formation of a functional blood vasculature. Adult blood vessels comprise endothelial cells and perivascular mural cells that assemble into patent tubules ensheathed by a basement membrane during angiogenesis. Using individual vessel components, we characterized intra-scaffold microvessel self-assembly efficiency in a physiolo...
متن کاملBiophysical Mechanisms That Govern the Vascularization of Microfluidic Scaffolds
Methods to engineer vascularized tissues have historically focused on chemical and/or biological strategies (Lovett et al. 2009). For instance, loading of scaffolds with vascular growth factors, functionalization of scaffolds with bioactive peptides, or incorporation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components into scaffolds can induce angiogenesis and vasculogenesis, the natural processes of vasc...
