Whereas the advanced 3D printing technique allows the construction of bionic bioscaffolds that support in-situ tissue regeneration. Herein, we developed a sort of lineage-specific biphasic scaffolds for osteochondral regeneration, fabricated via consecutive 3D-printing and lyophilization. To facilitate osteogenesis and bone formation, a porous scaffold was 3D-printed fabricated using a composite ink consisting of gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and hydroxyapatite (HAP). To synergistically stimulate chondrogenesis and hyaline cartilage regeneration, collagen was infused into the top layers of the 3D-printed GelMA/HAP construct. In vitro culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) showed that the top collagen layer preferentially promoted BMSCs chondrogenic differentiation, while the GelMA/HAP composite mostly contributed to their osteogenic differentiation. This customized biphasic scaffold was then examined within the defected weight-bearing regions of full-thickness articular cartilage in rabbits, in which neocartilage, bone formation and remodeling were identified at six and twelve weeks post-implantation. Consistently to the in vitro findings, the bottom GelMA/HAP scaffold facilitated bone formation, while the top-layer with preloaded collagen markedly augmented hyaline cartilage formation in vivo. Furthermore, it was evident that the biphasic scaffolds effectively modulated bone remodeling dynamics via inhibiting hyperactive osteoclast activities. Considering that such combinatorial biphasic scaffolds were easily prepared and successfully utilized for cartilage defect repair, this cell-free tissue-engineered strategy holds great promise in future clinical translation.</p>","PeriodicalId":8964,"journal":{"name":"Biofabrication","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144504818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite numerous research efforts aimed at enhancing process modeling, optimizing capabilities, and exploring new conditions, there remains a critical need to enhance process efficiency. Experimental data are paramount for improving models. Nevertheless, it is practically unfeasible to explore a multitude of conditions (e.g. different material formulations, process parameters, machines, setups), especially given the experimental constraints of budget and time. Leveraged by in-situ bioprinting monitoring, this paper explores a set of transfer learning (TL) methods designed for resource-efficient bioprinting modeling, aiming to merge established knowledge with new experimental conditions. TL encompasses machine learning strategies focused on transferring knowledge across distinct, yet similar, domains. TL is applied to an extrusion-based bioprinting case study for printability response modeling. The knowledge acquired from a model trained on one material (the source) is transferred to a new material (the target), under conditions of limited experimental data availability. Eventually, the accuracy of the transferred model is assessed and compared against a reference no-transfer scenario, which is developed from scratch following conventional practices. Furthermore, giving high importance to the experimental effort reduction, a sensitivity analysis altering the number of experimental training points is performed to assess performances and limitations of the method. This method demonstrates the feasibility of knowledge transfer in bioprinting as a catalyst for more sophisticated applications across diverse printing conditions, materials, and technologies to advancing this technology towards achieving its full potential.</p>","PeriodicalId":8964,"journal":{"name":"Biofabrication","volume":"17 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144494534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Human costal cartilage is a promising cell source, yet the effects of donor variability and extensive passaging remain unexplored. Therefore, this study investigated the functional (i.e. morphological, histological, mechanical, and biochemical) properties of hyaline-like neocartilage generated from high-passage human costochondral cells. A cell banking system was applied to seven donors to create master cell banks and subsequently working cell banks to fabricate P5 and P9 constructs using the processes of conservative chondrogenic passaging, aggregate rejuvenation, and self-assembly. Cell morphology or gene expression levels of these cells were correlated with mechanical and biochemical properties to identify predictive markers of neocartilage functional properties. Cells from younger donors (⩽3 months) expanded 8.7-fold more than cells from older donors (9-14 years). Cumulative expansion factors from P0 reached 3124-17397 at P5 and 1.4-36.2 million at P9. Aggregate rejuvenation was as effective at P9 as at P5 in restoring a hyaline cartilage-like phenotype, evidenced by increased cell circularity, upregulation of chondrogenic genes (e.g. >310-fold for<i>ACAN</i>; >200 000-fold for<i>COL2A1</i>; >2500-fold for<i>Chm-1</i>), and robust neocartilage functional properties. At P5, one young donor exhibited the highest functional properties (e.g. aggregate modulus = 310 kPa, Young's modulus = 2.9 MPa, GAG/ww = 9.5%, COL/ww = 3.1%). At P9, a different young donor had the highest functional properties (e.g. aggregate modulus = 220 kPa, Young's modulus = 2.3 MPa, GAG/ww = 8.6%, COL/ww = 3.4%).
