Controlling gene expression within these structures is critical for modulating cell signaling and probing cell behavior. However, current transfection strategies are limited in spatiotemporal control because dense 3D scaffolds hinder diffusion of traditional vectors. To address this, we developed a coaxial extrusion 3D bioprinting technique using ultrasound-responsive gene delivery bioinks. These bioink materials incorporate echogenic microbubble gene delivery particles that upon ultrasound exposure can sonoporate cells within the construct, facilitating controllable transfection.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Phospholipid-coated gas-core microbubbles were electrostatically coupled to reporter transgene plasmid payloads and incorporated into cell-laden alginate bioinks at varying particle concentrations.

VSMCs change their phenotype from contractile to synthetic and actively remodel the aortic wall under pathological conditions. Findings on the differentiation mechanism of VSMCs have been reported in many in vitro studies; however, the mechanical environments in vivo aortic walls are quite different from those of in vitro culture conditions: VSMCs in vivo exhibit an elongated shape and form a tissue that aligns with the circumferential direction of the walls, whereas VSMCs in vitro spread randomly and form irregular shapes during cultivation on conventional flat culture dishes and dedifferentiate into a synthetic phenotype.

Thus, CA has been applied towards understanding the interaction and reproduction of single-cell organisms, and the growth of larger, disorganized tissues such as tumors. Surprisingly, however, there have been few attempts to adapt simple CA models to recreate the evolution of either new species, or subclones within a multicellular, tumor-like tissue.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this article, I present a modified form of the classic Conway's GOL simulation, in which the three integer thresholds that define GOL (number of neighboring cells, below which a cell will \"die of loneliness\"; number of neighboring cells, above which a cell will die of overcrowding; and number of neighboring cells that will result in spontaneous birth of a new cell within an empty lattice location) are occasionally altered with a randomized mutation of fractional magnitude during new \"cell birth\" events. Newly born cells \"inherit\" the current mutation state of a neighboring parent cell, and over the course of 10,000 generations these mutations tend to accumulate until they impact the behaviors of individual cells, causing them to transition from the sparse, small patterns of live cells characteristic of GOL into a more dense, unregulated growth resembling a connected tumor tissue.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The mutation rate and mutation magnitude were systematically varied in repeated randomized simulation runs, and it was determined that the most important mutated rule for the transition to unregulated, tumor-like growth was the overcrowding threshold, with the spontaneous birth and loneliness thresholds being of secondary importance.
