Construction of complex three-dimensional vascularized liver tissue model in vitro based on a biphasic cell-laden embedding medium by Weikang Lv, Haoran Yu, Abdellah Aazmi, Tuya Naren, Wanli Cheng, Mengfei Yu, Zhen Wang, Xiaobin Xu, Huayong Yang, Liang Ma

“…Constructing an in vitro vascularized liver tissue model that closely simulates the human liver is crucial for promoting cell proliferation, mimicking physiological heterogeneous structures, and recreating the cellular microenvironment. However, the layer-by-layer printing method is significantly constrained by the rheological properties of the bioink, making it challenging to form complex three-dimensional vascular structures in low-viscosity soft materials. …”
