Abstract
In tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, 3D bioprinting has become a revolutionary technique that makes it possible to precisely fabricate intricate biological structures. The creation of sophisticated bioinks, especially those that include hydrogels and polymeric nanoparticles, is essential to its success. These substances promote cellular adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation by providing special physicochemical characteristics that closely resemble the natural extracellular matrix. Hydrogels offer a moist, friendly environment that promotes tissue growth, whereas polymeric nanoparticles improve the mechanical strength, printability, and controlled drug administration of bioinks. Recent developments in the creation and use of hydrogels and polymeric nanoparticles in 3D bioprinting are summarized in this review, with an emphasis on their applications in organ regeneration, wound healing, and personalized medicine. It also discusses current problems that need to be resolved in order to transform laboratory breakthroughs into clinical treatments, such as biocompatibility, structural fidelity, and standardization. The future of 3D bioprinting holds the possibility of previously unheard-of advances in functional tissue restoration and patient-specific treatment through the integration of nanotechnology, machine learning, and biomaterial science.
