Abstract (original English)

3D bioprinting technology has made great strides in the field of bone tissue engineering. It has been able to create personalized biological structures on a macroscopic scale. In terms of microstructure bionics, 3D printing technology has also made some progress in recent years. The use of nanotechnology and drug delivery technology has provided a microenvironment that is more compatible with cell growth. Finally, it is possible to bridge the gap between engineered organizational structures and natural tissues. In this work, we summarize the widely used 3D bioprinting methods and the preparation of bioinks. Next, the classification of bone tissue engineering scaffold materials and nanomaterials for loading is briefly introduced. Then the technical shortcomings of current nanotechnology-based 3D bioprinting are described, along with the corresponding improvements. Finally, we summarize the prospects of nano-based 3D bioprinting technology in bone tissue engineering.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
