TLDR
The results demonstrate that concentrated collagen hydrogels can be considered as new candidates for dermal substitution because they are is easy to handle, do not contract drastically, favor cell growth, and can be quickly integrated in vivo.

Production of a tissue-like structure by contraction of collagen lattices by human fibroblasts of different proliferative

TL;DR: Fibroblasts of high population doubling level propagated in vitro, which have left the cell cycle, can carry out the contraction at least as efficiently as cycling cells as discussed by the authors, and the potential uses of the system as an immu- nologically tolerated "tissue" for wound hea ing and as a model for studying fibroblast function are discussed.

Direct 3D bioprinting of perfusable vascular constructs using a blend bioink

TL;DR: A versatile 3D bioprinting strategy that employs biomimetic biomaterials and an advanced extrusion system to deposit perfusable vascular structures with highly ordered arrangements in a single-step process, superior to conventional microfabrication or sacrificial templating approaches for fabrication of the perfusable vasculature.

Functional Human Vascular Network Generated in Photocrosslinkable Gelatin Methacrylate Hydrogels.

TL;DR: The suitability of a photopolymerizable gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogel to support human progenitor cell‐based formation of vascular networks is demonstrated and it is shown that implantation of cell‐laden GelMA hydrogels into immunodeficient mice results in a rapid formation of functional anastomoses between the bioengineered human vascular network and the mouse vasculature.

Tissue Cells Feel and Respond to the Stiffness of Their Substrate

TL;DR: An understanding of how tissue cells—including fibroblasts, myocytes, neurons, and other cell types—sense matrix stiffness is just emerging with quantitative studies of cells adhering to gels with which elasticity can be tuned to approximate that of tissues.

Hydrogels for tissue engineering: scaffold design variables and applications.

TL;DR: Hydrogels are an appealing scaffold material because they are structurally similar to the extracellular matrix of many tissues, can often be processed under relatively mild conditions, and may be delivered in a minimally invasive manner.

Serial cultivation of strains of human epidermal keratinocytes: the formation of keratinizing colonies from single cells.

TL;DR: Human diploid epidermis epidermal cells have been successfully grown in serial culture and it is possible to isolate keratinocyte clones free of viable fibroblasts, and human diploids keratinocytes appear to have a finite culture lifetime.

Production of a tissue-like structure by contraction of collagen lattices by human fibroblasts of different proliferative potential in vitro.

TL;DR: Fibroblasts of high population doubling level propagated in vitro, which have left the cell cycle, can carry out the contraction at least as efficiently as cycling cells.
