Towards organ printing: engineering an intra-organ branched vascular tree
Open accessAbstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD: Effective vascularization of thick three-dimensional engineered tissue constructs is a problem in tissue engineering. As in native organs, a tissue-engineered intra-organ vascular tree must be comprised of a network of hierarchically branched vascular segments. Despite this requirement, current tissue-engineering efforts are still focused predominantly on engineering either large-diameter macrovessels or microvascular networks. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW: We present the emerging concept of organ printing or robotic additive biofabrication of an intra-organ branched vascular tree, based on the ability of vascular tissue spheroids to undergo self-assembly. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN: The feasibility and challenges of this robotic biofabrication approach to intra-organ vascularization for tissue engineering based on organ-printing technology using self-assembling vascular tissue spheroids including clinically relevantly vascular cell sources are analyzed. TAKE HOME MESSAGE: It is not possible to engineer 3D thick tissue or organ constructs without effective vascularization. An effective intra-organ vascular system cannot be built by the simple connection of large-diameter vessels and microvessels. Successful engineering of functional human organs suitable for surgical implantation will require concomitant engineering of a 'built in' intra-organ branched vascular system. Organ printing enables biofabrication of human organ constructs with a 'built in' intra-organ branched vascular tree.

Autologous EPCs can be easily isolated from peripheral blood, lipoaspirate tissue, and bone marrow in sufficient number, holding promising potential for reendothelization of decellularized livers for clinical application.
“This results in the easy isolation of autologous EPCs from peripheral blood, lipoaspirate tissue, and bone marrow in sufficient number, holding promising potential for reendothelization of decellularized livers for clinical application [239].”
From Liver tissue engineering using decellularized scaffolds: Current progress, challenges, and opportunities (2024) · cites this paper as [239]
Section 4.3 says large numbers of adipose progenitor cells can be isolated from lipoaspirate and describes their potential for engineering intra-organ vascular trees. But section 4.2 cautions that bone-marrow stem-cell yields are limited, and section 1.4 says reendothelialization of a complete decellularized organ vascular system remains unproven. The paper does not establish easy isolation of sufficient EPCs from all three named sources or their clinical use to reendothelialize decellularized livers; page numbers were not available in our copy.

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.
