Abstract
This protocol outlines the synthesis and use of engineered hyaluronan-based hydrogels for 3D cell culture and bioprinting of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neuroepithelial stem cells (lt-NES). Key steps include hydrogel formation using bioorthogonal chemistries, cell encapsulation, and 3D bioprinting with a Cellink BioX printer, enabling the creation of complex tissue models. The protocol ensures high cell viability and supports differentiation, essential for neuroscience research and drug development.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
