Abstract (original English)

Encapsulating multiple growth factors within a scaffold enhances the regenerative capacity of engineered bone grafts through their localization and controls the spatiotemporal release profile. In this study, we bioprinted hybrid bone grafts with an inherent built-in controlled growth factor delivery system, which would contribute to vascularized bone formation using a single stem cell source, human adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ASCs) in vitro. The strategy was to provide precise control over the ASC-derived osteogenesis and angiogenesis at certain regions of the graft through the activity of spatially positioned microencapsulated BMP-2 and VEGF within the osteogenic and angiogenic bioink during bioprinting. The 3D-bioprinted vascularized bone grafts were cultured in a perfusion bioreactor. Results proved localized expression of osteopontin and CD31 by the ASCs, which was made possible through the localized delivery activity of the built-in delivery system. In conclusion, this approach provided a methodology for generating off-the-shelf constructs for vascularized bone regeneration and has the potential to enable single-step, in situ bioprinting procedures for creating vascularized bone implants when applied to bone defects.
