Abstract

Stem cells are of widespread interest in regenerative medicine due to their capability of self-renewal and differentiation, which is regulated by their three-dimensional microenvironment. In this study, a computer-aided biofabrication technique based on laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is used to generate grafts consisting of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). We demonstrate that (i) laser printing does not cause any cell damage; (ii) laser-printed MSC grafts can be differentiated toward bone and cartilage; (iii) LIFT allows printing of cell densities high enough for the promotion of chondrogenesis; (iv) with LIFT three-dimensional scaffold-free autologous tissue grafts can be fabricated keeping their predefined structure, and (v) predifferentiated MSCs survived the complete printing procedure and kept their functionality. We believe that our results will find important applications in stem cell biology and tissue engineering.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
