Background: The biologic scaffolds derived from decellularized tissues and organs have been successfully developed in a variety of preclinical and/or clinical studies.
Objective: The new decellularized liver-regenerative 3D printing biomaterials were designed and prepared for cell-based liver therapies.
Methods: An extraction process was employed to remove the tissue and cellular molecules from porcine liver via pretreatment of supercritical fluid of carbon dioxide (ScCO2). Varying porosities of the decellularized liver tissues were created using papain-containing reagent treatments after ScCO2.
Results: The resulting liver-regenerative 3D printing biomaterials of decellularized liver collagen scaffolds were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermo-gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy.
Conclusions: The decellularized liver collagen scaffolds with good thermal stability (>150 °C) were obtained and employed as liver-regenerative 3D printing biomaterials for cell-based liver therapies.

Three-dimensional (3D)-printed tissue models have been used in various biomedical fields owing to numerous advantages such as enhancements in cell response and functionality. In liver tissue engineering, several studies have been reported using 3D-printed liver tissue models with improved cellular responses and functions in drug screening, liver disease, and liver regenerative medicine. However, the application of conventional single-component bioinks for the printing of 3D liver constructs remains problematic because of the complex structural and physiological characteristics of the liver.

Liver, as a vital organ, is responsible for a wide range of biological functions to maintain homeostasis and any type of damages to hepatic tissue contributes to disease progression and death. Viral infection, trauma, carcinoma, alcohol misuse and inborn errors of metabolism are common causes of liver diseases are a severe known reason for leading to end-stage liver disease or liver failure. In either way, liver transplantation is the only treatment option which is, however, hampered by the increasing scarcity of organ donor.

Currently, most acute liver diseases are treated through liver transplantation. However, transplantation is limited by organ donor scarcity and immune rejection response. Moreover, only three types of commercial bio-artificial livers are available, and these have marginal effects on survival rates.

The liver is the largest organ in the body; it has a complex architecture, wide range of functions and unique regenerative capacity. The growing incidence of liver diseases worldwide requires increased numbers of liver transplant and leads to an ongoing shortage of donor livers. To meet the huge demand, various alternative approaches are being investigated including, hepatic cell transplantation, artificial devices and bioprinting of the organ itself.
