THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTED ORGANS, DEVICES, AND MATRICES
Provided herein are methods and systems for bio-printing of three-dimensional organs and organoids. Also provided herein are bio-printed three-dimensional organs and organoids for use in the generation and/or the assessment of immunological products and/or immune responses. Also provided herein are methods and system for bio-printing three-dimensional matrices.
MATRIX COMPOSITION
The present invention provides means for producing an organoid close to an organ in a living body and capable of secretion of a plasma protein and immune response. A matrix composition of the present invention provided as such means includes: (1) a first matrix containing one or more cells selected from the group consisting of vascular cells, nerve cells, and blood cells; and (2) a second matrix containing to cells constituting an organ and/or an organoid, in which the first matrix envelops the second matrix, and the first matrix has at least one opening.
CULTIVATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LARGE-SCALE PRODUCTION OF CULTURED FOOD
Systems and methods for producing cultured food products such as cultured meat in a form of meat cut or offal are provided, comprising growing non-human-animal adherent cells on edible scaffold(s) in a cultivation system. The cultivation system typically comprises a plurality of cell culture bioreactors receiving medium at a controlled flow rate adjusted to nourish the non-human-animal adherent cells.
METHOD TO PACKAGE A TISSUE MATRIX TO BE REGENERATED
Biological tissue is packaged to be regenerated before grafting in a vial sealed under vacuum and comprising a biological tissue matrix. A method for producing said vial includes placing a treated ex-vivo tissue sample in an open rigid vial and placing the vial in a lyophilizer. A lyophilization process is performed under vacuum to convert the treated ex-vivo tissue sample into a biological tissue matrix. The vial is hermetically sealed with closing means, inside the lyophilizer under vacuum. The sealed vial is then removed from the lyophilizer.
Customized hybrid bone-implant grafts
The present invention provides customized hybrid bone-implant grafts and a method of manufacture thereof.
METHODS FOR CONTROLLED INDUCTION OF BIOENGINEERED NEUROEPITHELIAL TISSUES AND 3-D NEUROEPITHELIAL TUBES
Described herein are methods, compositions, and kits for directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells, neuromesodermal progenitors, and neural stem cells into bioengineered elliptical neuroepithelial tissues and bioengineered neuroepithelial tubes that contain a single rosette of polarized neuroepithelial cells and have microscale cellular organization similar to that of an in vivo developing human neural tube.
ASSEMBLY OF FUNCTIONALLY INTEGRATED HUMAN FOREBRAIN SPHEROIDS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
Human pluripotent stem cells are differentiated in vitro into forebrain subdomain structures, which are then fused to generate an integrated system for use in analysis, screening programs, and the like.
METHOD FOR PRODUCING BIOLOGICAL TISSUE-LIKE STRUCTURE
An object of the present invention is to provide a novel method for producing a biological tissue-like structure comprising differentiated cells induced from pluripotent stem cells, and the present invention provides a method of forming a biological tissue-like structure together with host-derived blood vessels and connective tissue by transplanting a composition in which cells derived from pluripotent stem cells are disposed to be dispersed in a biocompatible material to induce the differentiation of the cells.
Three dimensional heterogeneously differentiated tissue culture
The present invention provides an artificial tissue culture comprising a heterogeneous population of cells of at least two different tissue sections, wherein said tissue sections are in a three dimensional structure, method of generating such a tissue and kits suitable for said method or maintain a three dimensional tissue culture.
Emulsion stereolithography and 3D printing of multimaterials and nanoscale material gradients
A functionally graded material is formed by pipetting individual micro-or-nano-litter droplets with a variety of materials including multi-nanostructured material (nanowires, carbon nanotubes, enzymes, multi-element and/or multi-color, multi-biomolecules) and UV polymerization of the flat hydrogel meniscus surface formed at the carrier fluid interface. After step-by-step droplet pipetting and subsequent layer-by-layer UV polymerization via a digital mask, the complete fabricated part without supporting layers is taken out of the carrier fluid while the un-cured micro-litter residue is conveniently suctioned out of the carrier fluid.
