Abstract:
Provided herein are synthetic, three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted tissue constructs comprising porcine cells and methods of producing and using the same. The synthetic 3D bioprinted tissue constructs are fabricated by bioprinting spheroids comprising porcine cells, including genetically engineered cells, on a microneedle mold and fusing the spheroids to form an engineered tissue construct. Also provided are methods of using scaffold-free 3D bioprinted tissue constructs for applications related to drug screening and toxicity screening.
