This technique involves the precise layer-by-layer deposition of bioinks—comprising cells, biomaterials, and growth factors—to fabricate functional tissues and organs. The development of bioprinting has been driven by the growing need for tissue and organ replacements due to the limited availability of donors and the increasing prevalence of organ failure and degenerative diseases.
Recent advances in bioprinting technology have enabled the creation of complex tissue structures with enhanced precision and functionality. Key areas of focus include the development of bioinks with optimized mechanical and biological properties, the integration of vascularization within printed tissues, and the engineering of tissue-specific microenvironments that support cell viability and function. Additionally, innovations in printing techniques, such as multi-material printing and the incorporation of real-time monitoring systems, have expanded the capabilities of bioprinting to produce tissues that closely mimic their natural counterparts.
