Bioprinting is an arising field in regenerative science in medical industry.

Creating cell-loaded,
three-dimensional designs to imitate human tissues has a significant role in tissue designing, yet
additionally in drug conveyance and in cancer treatment. Bioprinting can give patient specific,
controlled microstructures and the situating of various cell types for the creation of tissue
designing platforms. It intends to reduce the obstacles of ordinary tissue designing techniques
by exact and controlled layer-by-layer gathering of biomaterials also called ‘BIOINK’ in an ideal
3D scaffold. ‘bioink’ consisted of living cells and matrix. Comparable to AM, 3D bioprinting
includes layer-by-layer deposition of bioink to make 3D designs, like tissues and organs.

It is broadly classified into three categories.

1. Nozzle Based (Extrusion and inkjet)


2. Droplet Based and
3. LASER Based

Extrusion by nozzle: This method uses electric, pneumatic, or solenoid dispenser devices to
deposit bioinks in a continuous shape of filaments through a nozzle into the scaffold.

Droplet-based: based on the development of bioink droplets through thermal, acoustic, or


electrical stimulation.

Lasers Based: - works on the same principle as SLA (photo polymerization).

Cell viability, resolution, and print reliability have all been found to be affected differently by
these four techniques. The choice of "bioinks" for each of these distinctive bioprinting
modalities ordinarily fluctuates dependent on the ink's rheology, consistency, crosslinking
science, and biocompatibility

Bioprinting creates scaffolds of a microarchitecture that is both mechanically stable and


conducive to cell ingrowth. Faster integrating with the host tissue, lower probability of
rejection, and, most notably, uniform tissue growth in vivo have all been shown as advantages
of homogeneously dispersed cell-laden scaffolds. Today, it is also the material segment that is
expected to develop, as scientists can more easily decide the correct biomaterial combinations
for converting scaffolds into tissues thanks to other technologies such as AI.

Bioprinting could be used in a therapeutic environment to build regenerative scaffolds tailored


to the needs of individual patients. The use of bioprinting in a clinical environment involves
following steps.

1. CT/ MRI/ USG for Data acquisition


2. Creating Models – Via DICOM file using CAD software, eg materialize,
3. Material selection – BIOINK
4. Bioprinting - Scaffold
5. Incubation – Dynamic Vs Static
6. In VIVO implantation.

Bioprinting's ultimate goal is to offer an alternative to autologous and allogeneic tissue


implants, as well as to eliminate animal testing for disease research and treatment.

Anticipated Future development: - Bioprinting utilizes combination of software, hardware and


wetware for the biofabrication of organoids, tissues and organs and in a specific spatially
regulated manner. This is beneficial in transplant medicine and research science. It follows the
core principles of tissue engineering science, through which tissue structure is mimicked by the
optimum combination of cell, scaffold, and growth factor combinations, aided by the ability to
configure, automate, and reproduce the end tissue engineered product. Biomedicine
approaches aim to create precision medicine, in which physicians can customize therapies to
the specific needs of each patient. One of the industry's biggest challenges is the expense of
personalization and who would be able to do it.

Since discussing the bioprinting processes that we've seen on the market, it appears that,
despite the fact that the process still has a long way to go. Although the primary growth in this
market will be in the production of tissues and organs, it is fair to assume that in coming years,
we will be talking about 3D printed human organs and transplants. We should call muscles,
corneas, cartilage, hearts, and skin as body parts that have been bioprinted. These research
programmes have taken place at universities all around the world. There will be many great
discoveries for researchers and scientists in the future, but we are certain that 3D bioprinting
will be one of the most important medical developments, a true revolution for the future of
medicine.

Using this innovative process, it is possible to demonstrate the functional regeneration of a


variety of organs, including nerve regeneration, teeth and hair follicles. These are the major
area of my interest.

Recent advancements in tissue regeneration have enabled researchers to improve the functions
of biological teeth by promoting underlying tooth production through bone remodeling and
improving the ability to perceive noxious stimuli.

Attempting to replicate a hair follicle that might prove to be a successful cure for promoting
hair growth, a possible remedy for men and women suffering from baldness.
Finally, to explored the potential use of human mesenchymal stem cells as the only cellular
component in 3D bio-printed scaffold-free neural constructs that were transplantable to bridge
facial nerve defects to treat facial palsy
