Magnetic Bioprinting and Actuation of Stretchable Muscle Tissue

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Human and murine myoblasts labeled with iron oxide nanoparticles are magnetically bioprinted into wrench‐shaped tissues, which are then anchored between two magnetic needles. Mechanical stretching of these tissues enhances both their maturation and functional performance. Abstract Engineering tissues with precise, long‐lasting shapes and the capability
