Cartilage Laser Engraving for Fast-Track Tissue Engineering of Auricular Grafts.

In this study, the optimal engraving parameters were determined through the analysis of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) data, as follows: a laser power density of 5.5 × 10 W/cm, an irradiation rate of 0.1 mm/s, a well radius of 60 μm, a distance between well centers of 200 μm, and a number of passes for each well of 20.

Properties and Printability of the Synthesized Hydrogel Based on GelMA.

Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) has recently attracted increasing attention. Unlike other hydrogels, it allows for the adjustment of the mechanical properties using such factors as degree of functionalization, concentration, and photocrosslinking parameters. In this study, GelMA with a high degree of substitution (82.

Adverse events, side effects and complications in mesenchymal stromal cell-based therapies.

Numerous clinical studies have shown a wide clinical potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) application. However, recent experience has accumulated numerous reports of adverse events and side effects associated with MSCs therapy. Furthermore, the strategies and methods of MSCs therapy did not change significantly in recent decades despite the clinical impact and awareness of potential complications.

Cartilage Formation In Vivo Using High Concentration Collagen-Based Bioink with MSC and Decellularized ECM Granules.

The aim of this study was to verify the applicability of high-concentration collagen-based bioink with MSC (ADSC) and decellularized ECM granules for the formation of cartilage tissue de novo after subcutaneous implantation of the scaffolds in rats. The printability of the bioink (4% collagen, 2.5% decellularized ECM granules, derived via 280 μm sieve) was shown.

Bioprinting of Cartilage with Bioink Based on High-Concentration Collagen and Chondrocytes.

The study was aimed at the applicability of a bioink based on 4% collagen and chondrocytes for cartilage formation. Extrusion-based bioprinting was used for the biofabrication. The printing parameters were tuned to obtain stable material flow.
