TLDR
Successful bioprinting of OPCs in combination with sNPCs demonstrates a multicellular neural tissue engineering approach, where the ability to direct the patterning and combination of transplanted neuronal and glial cells can be beneficial in rebuilding functional axonal connections across areas of central nervous system tissue damage.
Abstract
The ability to model CNS tissues in vitro for in vivo transplantation has the potential to be of critical importance in a variety of medical conditions such as spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, stroke, and degenerative neurologic disease. Our approach to generating functional CNS tissue constructs relies on a “multiprong” combination of sophisticated 3D bioprinting and cell culture expertise. Here, as an example for utilizing novel 3D neurobioprinting, we have devised a method to model the cytoarchitecture of spinal cord tissue.
