Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM)-based bioinks has attracted much attention in recent years for 3D printing of native-like tissue constructs. Due to organ unavailability, human placental ECM can be an alternative source for the construction of 3D print composite scaffolds for the treatment of deep wounds. In this study, we use different concentrations (1.5%, 3% and 5%w/v) of ECM derived from the placenta, sodium-alginate and gelatin to prepare a printable bioink biomimicking natural skin. The printed hydrogels' morphology, physical structure, mechanical behavior, biocompatibility, and angiogenic property are investigated. The optimized ECM (5%w/v) 3D printed scaffold is applied on full-thickness wounds created in a mouse model. Due to their unique native-like structure, the ECM-based scaffolds provide a non-cytotoxic microenvironment for cell adhesion, infiltration, angiogenesis, and proliferation. In contrast, they do not show any sign of immune response to the host. Notably, the biodegradation, swelling rate, mechanical property, cell adhesion and angiogenesis properties increase with the increase of ECM concentrations in the construct. The ECM 3D printed scaffold implanted into deep wounds increases granulation tissue formation, angiogenesis, and re-epithelialization due to the presence of ECM components in the construct, when compared with printed scaffold with no ECM and no treatment wound. Overall, our findings demonstrate that the 5% ECM 3D scaffold supports the best deep wound regeneration in vivo, produces a skin replacement with a cellular structure comparable to native skin.

Abstract
Engineering hierarchical vasculatures is critical for creating implantable functional thick tissues. Current approaches focus on fabricating mesoscale vessels for implantation or hierarchical microvascular in vitro models, but a combined approach is yet to be achieved to create engineered tissue flaps. Here, millimetric vessel-like scaffolds and 3D bioprinted vascularized tissues interconnect, creating fully engineered hierarchical vascular constructs for implantation. Endothelial and support cells spontaneously form microvascular networks in bioprinted tissues using a human collagen bioink. Sacrificial molds are used to create polymeric vessel-like scaffolds and endothelial cells seeded in their lumen form native-like endothelia. Assembling endothelialized scaffolds within vascularizing hydrogels incites the bioprinted vasculature and endothelium to cooperatively create vessels, enabling tissue perfusion through the scaffold lumen. Using a cuffing microsurgery approach, the engineered tissue is directly anastomosed with a rat femoral artery, promoting a rich host vasculature within the implanted tissue. After two weeks in vivo, contrast microcomputer tomography imaging and lectin perfusion of explanted engineered tissues verify the host ingrowth vasculature's functionality. Furthermore, the hierarchical vessel network (VesselNet) supports in vitro functionality of cardiomyocytes. Finally, the proposed approach is expanded to mimic complex structures with native-like millimetric vessels. This work presents a novel strategy aiming to create fully-engineered patient-specific thick tissue flaps.

Abstract
Decellularized extracellular matrices (ECMs) are able to provide the necessary and specific cues for remodeling and maturation of tissue-specific cells. Nevertheless, their use for typical biofabrication applications requires chemical modification or mixing with other polymers, mainly due to the limited viscoelastic properties. In this study, we hypothesize that a bioink exclusively based on decellularized kidney ECM (dKECM) could be used to bioprint renal progenitor cells. To address these aims, porcine kidneys were decellularized, lyophilized and digested to yield a viscous solution. Then, the bioprinting process was optimized using an agarose microparticle support bath containing transglutaminase for enzymatic crosslinking of the dKECM. This methodology was highly effective to obtain constructs with good printing resolution and high structural integrity. Moreover, the encapsulation of primary renal progenitor cells resulted in high cell viability, with creation of 3D complex structures over time. More importantly, this tissue-specific matrix was also able to influence cellular growth and differentiation over time. Taken together, these results demonstrate that unmodified dKECM bioinks have great potential for bioengineering renal tissue analogs with promising translational applications and/or forin vitromodel systems. Ultimately, this strategy may have greater implications on the biomedical field for the development of bioengineered substitutes using decellularized matrices from other tissues.
