Abstract (original English)
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has emerged as a promising strategy for fabricating complex tissue analogs with intricate architectures, such as vascular networks. Achieving this necessitates bioink formulations that possess highly printable properties and provide a cell-friendly microenvironment mimicking the native extracellular matrix. Rapid advancements in printing techniques continue to expand the capabilities of researchers, enabling them to overcome existing biological barriers. This review offers a comprehensive examination of ultraviolet-based 3D bioprinting, renowned for its exceptional precision compared to other techniques, and explores its applications in inducing angiogenesis across diverse tissue models related to hypoxia. The high-precision and rapid photocuring capabilities of 3D bioprinting are essential for accurately replicating the intricate complexity of vascular networks and extending the diffusion limits for nutrients and gases. Addressing the lack of vascular structure is crucial in hypoxia-related diseases, as it can significantly improve oxygen delivery and overall tissue health. Consequently, high-resolution 3D bioprinting facilitates the creation of vascular structures within three-dimensional engineered tissues, offering a potential solution for addressing hypoxia-related diseases. Emphasis is placed on fundamental components essential for succe
