This study investigates a synergistic effect between 3D‐printed surface features and mechanical micro‐strain in enhancing the osteogenic, angiogenic, and myogenic responses of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Load‐induced mechanotransduction, facilitated by the implant's architectural design, significantly amplifies hMSC differentiation.

Printing and Rerouting of Elastic and Protease Responsive Shape Memory Hydrogel Filaments
A biofabrication strategy, Rerouting of Free‐Floating Suspended Hydrogel Filaments (REFRESH), is developed enabling the printing of highly elastic, reconfigurable protease‐responsive hydrogel filaments with shape memory properties. The filaments can be manually braided, knotted, and rerouted to create intricate cell‐laden 3D architectures, expanding ...

Readily UV‐curing and self‐healing methacrylated collagen peptide (COPMA) hydrogels are developed with tunable mechanical properties. As the interpenetrating network between COPMA and xanthan gum (XG), COPMA‐XG bioinks show improved mechanical properties, printability, and stability, compared to COPMA or XG.
