Abstract

Spheroids, organoids, or cell-laden droplets are often used as building blocks for bioprinting, but so far little is known about the spatio-temporal cellular interactions subsequent to printing. We used a drop-on-demand bioprinting approach to study the biological interactions of such building blocks in dimensions of micrometers. Highly-density droplets (approximately 700 cells in 10 nL) of multiple cell types were patterned in a 3D hydrogel matrix with a precision of up to 70 μm. The patterns were used to investigate interactions of endothelial cells (HUVECs) and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs), which are related to vascularization. We demonstrated that a gap of 200 μm between HUVEC and ASC aggregates led to decreased sprouting of HUVECs towards ASCs and increased growth from ASCs towards HUVECs. For mixed aggregates containing both cell types, cellular interconnections of ASCs with lengths of up to approximately 800 µm and inhibition of HUVEC sprouting were observed. When ASCs were differentiated into smooth muscle cells (dASCs), separate HUVEC aggregates displayed decreased sprouting towards dASCs, whereas no cellular interconnections nor inhibition of HUVEC sprouting were detected for mixed dASCs/HUVEC aggregates. These findings demonstrate that our approach could be applied to investigate cell-cell interactions of different cell types in 3D co-cultures.

摘要

球体、类器官或细胞包被的液滴通常被用作生物打印的构建块,但到目前为止,人们对打印后细胞的时空相互作用知之甚少。我们使用按需滴注生物打印方法来研究这些构建块在微米级维度上的生物学相互作用。使用高精度的(70 μm 以内)方法在 3D 水凝胶基质中对多种细胞类型的高密度液滴(10 nL 中约 700 个细胞)进行图案化。这些图案用于研究内皮细胞(HUVEC)和脂肪来源间充质干细胞(ASCs)之间的相互作用,这些细胞与血管生成有关。我们证明了 HUVEC 和 ASC 聚集体之间 200 μm 的间隙会导致 HUVEC 向 ASC 的发芽减少,并导致 ASC 向 HUVEC 的生长增加。对于包含两种细胞类型的混合聚集体,观察到 ASC 与长度约 800 μm 的细胞连接,并抑制 HUVEC 的发芽。当 ASCs 分化为平滑肌细胞(dASCs)时,单独的 HUVEC 聚集体显示出向 dASCs 的发芽减少,而对于混合的 dASCs/HUVEC 聚集体,则未检测到细胞连接或抑制 HUVEC 的发芽。这些发现表明,我们的方法可用于研究不同细胞类型在 3D 共培养物中的细胞-细胞相互作用。
