    Bioprinting of Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering and Drug Screening Applications
    (Elsevier, 2022) Özmen, Ece; Yıldırım, Özüm; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu
    In tissue engineering, the 3-dimensional (3D) bioprinting method that enables the production of 3D structures by combining bioinks and cells has become one of the most promising technique. Over the last few years, 3D cell culture models gained importance in the development of disease model and drug development studies. The successful production of the 3D structures by 3D bioprinting mostly depends on the properties of the bioink to be used. Hydrogels, which are natural or synthetic polymers, are generally preferred as bioink materials with their high swelling ability, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and easy gelation ability. The convenience of hydrogels for varied bioprinting applications make them proper bioink materials for bioprinting of artificial tissues, tumor models, and tissue grafts. Bioprinting of functional tissues is successfully performed for years, and hydrogels are utilized as bioink in bone, vascular, neural, cartilage, cardiac, skin tissue engineering, and drug screening. In this chapter, bioprinting methodology, bioinks, hydrogel bioinks, and their applications are discussed in detail. © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Tissue Engineering Applications of Marine-Based Materials
    (Springer, 2022) Polat, Hürriyet; Zeybek, Nuket; Polat, Mehmet
    Tissue engineering is a promising approach in replacing or improving tissues lost or has become nonviable due to disease or trauma by the use of scaffold materials by combining engineering and biochemical/physicochemical methods. Its purpose is to create suitable matrices that support cell differentiation and proliferation toward the formation of new and functional tissue. Marine-based natural compounds are potential scaffold feedstock material in tissue engineering owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability while providing excellent biochemical/physicochemical properties. Numerous application areas and various fabrication routes techniques described in the literature attest to the importance of these materials in tissue regeneration. This review has been carried to merge the information from a large number of studies on the marine-based scaffold materials in tissue engineering into a coherent summary. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.

    Üç Boyutlu Hücre Kültürü için Polimer Esaslı Ekstrasellüler Matriks Mimetiği
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Türker, Esra; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu
    Elektro-eğirme metodu gelişmiş üretim teknolojilerindendir ve biyomedikal uygulamalarında yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Özellikle doku mühendisliğinde amaç, çalışılacak doku üzerine doğal veya sentetik destek materyali (iskele) üreterek hücrenin uyum sağlayabileceği bir ortam oluşturmaktır. Bu projenin amacı üç boyutlu (3D) hücre kültürü çalışmaları için elektro-eğirme-metodu ile poli(L-laktik-co-epsilon-kaprolakton) (PLLCL) kullanılarak iskele üretilmesidir. Homojen lifler ve uygun gözenek boyutu elde etmek amacıyla optimizasyon çalışmaları yapılmıştır. Elde edilen liflerin çapı, akış hızı ve voltajın artmasıyla azalmaktadır. Taramalı uç elektron mikroskop incelemeleri (SEM) lif morfolojik yapılarının doku iskelesi fabrikasyonu için ideale yakın olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır.
