One‐Step Coordinated Multi‐Kinetic 4D Printing of Human Vascularized Cardiac Tissues with Selective Fast‐Shrinking Capillaries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel 4D bioprinting technique for fabricating cardiac tissues with complex microvasculature. Unlike traditional 3D printing, it enables capillary‐scale structure formation via selective post‐printing shrinkage. This approach overcomes resolution limits of printing cell‐laden hydrogels, allowing the creation of functional ...

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...
