Linking Daily Victimization to Daily Affect Among Adolescents: The Mediating Role of Sleep Quality and Disturbance.

Bullying victimization is prevalent among adolescents and often linked to emotional problems. Prior studies have been focused on the concurrent or longitudinal associations between bullying victimization and emotional problems, but the daily associations and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Implementing daily diary method, the study aimed to examine the links between daily victimization and positive and negative affect as well as the mediating role of sleep quality and disturbance. A total of 265 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 11.65, SD = 0.74; 32.80% females) participated in this study and completed 7-day daily diaries on bullying victimization (traditional and cyber victimization), sleep quality and disturbance, and affect. As hypothesized, at the between-person level, sleep disturbance mediated the relationships between both traditional and cyber victimization and subsequent negative affect. At the within-person level, sleep quality mediated the pathway between traditional victimization and next-day negative affect; furthermore, sleep disturbance mediated the pathway between traditional victimization and positive affect the following day. These findings highlight the mediating roles of sleep quality and sleep disturbance in the relationships between stressful victimizing experiences and emotional problems and also provide novel insights into these associations.

Corresponding Changes in Sleep and Discrimination: A Three-year Longitudinal Study Among Ethnically/Racially Diverse Adolescents.

Although research has established the immediate, detrimental impact of discrimination on sleep, how changes in experiences of discrimination may be related to changes in sleep duration over multiple years is less clear. This three-year longitudinal study investigated: (1) intercept-only and linear trajectories of sleep and everyday discrimination across three years of high school; (2) ethnic/racial differences in these trajectories; and (3) the associations between changes in sleep and changes in everyday discrimination. The sample consisted of ethnically/racially minoritized adolescents from five northeast U.S. public high schools (n = 329; 70% female, 30% male, 0% non-binary; 42% Asian, 21% Black, 37% Latiné; Mage = 14.72, SD = 0.54). Latent growth curve models found that both sleep duration and everyday discrimination declined linearly throughout the first three years of high school and varied by race/ethnicity. Asian adolescents reported longer sleep duration in the 9th grade relative to Black and Latiné adolescents but underwent a significant decline such that these differences were no longer significant in the 10th and 11th grades. In addition, Black and Latiné, but not Asian, adolescents reported a significant decline in discrimination from the 9th-11th grades. Although average sleep duration declined for the entire sample, slower declines in discrimination were associated with faster decreases in sleep duration. This was particularly salient among Black adolescents. The current study contributes to research on ethnic/racial disparities in sleep by highlighting that everyday discrimination can have both an immediate and cumulative detrimental impact on sleep duration.

Machine Learning of Laboratory Data in Predicting 30-Day Mortality for Adult Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis.

BACKGROUND: Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) carries a high mortality rate. Current existing risk-evaluation methodologies fall short and improved predictive methods are needed. This study aimed to forecast 30-day mortality in adult HLH patients using 11 distinct machine learning (ML) algorithms. METHODS: A retrospective analysis on 431 adult HLH patients from January 2015 to September 2021 was conducted. Feature selection was executed using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator. We employed 11 ML algorithms to create prediction models. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, F1 score, calibration curve and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate these models. We assessed feature importance using the SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) approach. RESULTS: Seven independent predictors emerged as the most valuable features. An AUC between 0.65 and 1.00 was noted among the eleven ML algorithms. The gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) algorithms demonstrated the most optimal performance (1.00 in the training cohort and 0.80 in the validation cohort). By employing the SHAP method, we identified the variables that contributed to the model and their correlation with 30-day mortality. The AUC of the GBDT algorithms was the highest when using the top 4 (ferritin, UREA, age and thrombin time (TT)) features, reaching 0.99 in the training cohort and 0.83 in the validation cohort. Additionally, we developed a web-based calculator to estimate the risk of 30-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS: With GBDT algorithms applied to laboratory data, accurate prediction of 30-day mortality is achievable. Integrating these algorithms into clinical practice could potentially improve 30-day outcomes.

3D-Printed Breast Prosthesis that Smartly Senses and Targets Breast Cancer Relapse.

Breast reconstruction is essential for improving the appearance of patients after cancer surgery. Traditional breast prostheses are not appropriate for those undergoing partial resections and cannot detect and treat locoregional recurrence. Personalized shape prostheses that can smartly sense tumor relapse and deliver therapeutics are needed. A 3D-printed prosthesis that contains a therapeutic hydrogel is developed. The hydrogel, which is fabricated by crosslinking the polyvinyl alcohol with N1-(4-boronobenzyl)-N3-(4-boronophenyl)-N1, N1, N3, N3-tetramethylpropane-1,3-diaminium, is responsive to reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor microenvironment. Specifically, RSL3, a ferroptosis inducer that is loaded in hydrogels, can trigger tumor ferroptosis. Intriguingly, RSL3 encapsulated in the ROS-responsive hydrogel exerts antitumor effects by increasing the numbers of tumor-infiltrated CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and M1 macrophages while reducing the number of M2 macrophages. Therefore, this new prosthesis not only allows personalized shape reconstruction, but also detects and inhibits tumor recurrence. This combination of aesthetic appearance and therapeutic function can be very beneficial for breast cancer patients undergoing surgery.

Minimally invasive soft tissue repair using shrunken scaffolds.

The minimally invasive injection of tissue engineering scaffolds is of interest as it requires a smaller incision and quickens recovery. However, the engineering of scaffolds capable of injection remains a challenge. Here, we report on a shrunken scaffold inspired by the shrinking of puffed food in a humid environment. A scaffold is freeze-dried to remove water then placed in a humid atmosphere. The humidity causes the dry scaffold to shrink by up to 90%. In addition, the humidity treatment reduces the scaffolds modulus minimizing the foreign body response after implantation. The scaffolds can rapidly swell into their original size and shape after application. A tool for the delivery of the minimally invasive scaffolds is developed and we demonstrate the potential for minimally invasive delivery using this shrinking technique.

Effects of Ultra-High-Pressure Treatment on Chemical Composition and Biological Activities of Free, Esterified and Bound Phenolics from Phyllanthus emblica L. Fruits.

Phyllanthus emblica L. fruits (PEFs) were processed by ultra-pressure (UHP) treatment and then extracted by the ultrasonic-assisted extraction method. The influence of UHP on the phenolic composition, enzyme inhibitory activity and antioxidant activity of the free, esterified, and bound phenolic fractions from PEFs were compared. UHP pretreatment of PEFs significantly increased the total phenolic and flavonoid contents (p < 0.05). A total of 24 chemical compositions were characterized in normal and UHP-treated PEFs by UHPLC-ESI-HRMS/MS. Compared with normal PEFs, these three different phenolic fractions had stronger antioxidant activities and inhibitory effects on the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in H2O2-induced HepG2 cells (p < 0.05). The ROS inhibition might be due to an up-regulation of the expressions of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) activities. In addition, these three different phenolic fractions also significantly inhibited the activities of metabolic enzymes, including α-glucosidase, α-amylase and pancreatic lipase. This work may provide some insights into the potential economics and applications of PEFs in food and nutraceutical industries.

A Janus Microsphere Delivery System Orchestrates Immunomodulation and Osteoinduction by Fine-tuning Release Profiles.

Bone regeneration is a well-orchestrated process synergistically involving inflammation, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. Therefore, an effective bone graft should be designed to target multiple molecular events and biological demands during the bone healing process. In this study, a biodegradable gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)-based Janus microsphere delivery system containing calcium phosphate oligomer (CPO) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is developed based on natural biological events. The exceptional adjustability of GelMA facilitates the controlled release and on-demand application of biomolecules, and optimized delivery profiles of CPO and BMP-2 are explored. The sustained release of CPO during the initial healing stages contributes to early immunomodulation and promotes mineralization in the late stage. Meanwhile, the administration of BMP-2 at a relatively high concentration within the therapeutic range enhances the osteoinductive property. This delivery system, with fine-tuned release patterns, induces M2 macrophage polarization and creates a conducive immuno-microenvironment, which in turn facilitates effective bone regeneration in vivo. Collectively, this study proposes a bottom-up concept, aiming to develop a user-friendly and easily controlled delivery system targeting individual biological events, which may offer a new perspective on developing function-optimized biomaterials for clinical use.

Functional characteristics and habitat suitability of threatened birds in northeastern China.

Northeast China, rich in natural resources and diverse biodiversity, boasts a unique habitat for threatened bird species due to its remote location and perennial cold climate. An analysis assessed the adaptability of these species using data on their geographic distribution and functional traits collected through database queries. The results revealed that threatened bird species share similar functional traits and a stronger phylogenetic signal (Blomberg mean K = 0.39) compared to common species. The Biomod2 model analyzed potentially suitable ranges and environmental drivers under current and future climate scenarios, showing a pattern of larger suitable areas in southern regions and smaller suitable areas in the north. The most critically threatened species faced greater geographical constraints (0.989), with mean annual temperature being a key influence. Altitude and water system distribution were also key factors impacting the distribution of other threatened bird species. Simulated projections under different climate scenarios (RCP 45 and 85) indicated varying degrees of expansion in the suitable range for these species. This research sheds light on the functional traits and distribution of threatened bird species in Northeast China, providing a scientific foundation for future conservation and management efforts.

Advances in the study of the glymphatic system and aging.

The glymphatic system is cerebrospinal fluid-brain tissue fluid exchange flow mediated by aquaporin-4 (AQP4) on the end feet of astrocytes for a system, which is capable of rapidly removing brain metabolites and thus maintaining brain homeostasis, and is known as the central immune system. Dysfunction of the glymphatic system causes accumulation of misfolded and highly phosphorylated proteins (amyloid-ß and Tau proteins), which destabilizes the proteins, and the body's neuroinflammatory factors are altered causing aging of the immune system and leading to neurodegenerative diseases. Damage to the glymphatic system and aging share common manifestations, as well as unstudied biological mechanisms that are also linked, such as mitochondria, oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and sleep. In this paper, we first summarize the structure, function, and research methods of the glymphatic system and the relationship between the glymphatic system and the peripheral immune system, and second, sort out and summarize the factors of the glymphatic system in removing metabolites and resolving aging-related diseases and factors affecting aging, to explore its related biological mechanisms, and moreover, to provide a new way of thinking for treating or intervening aging-related diseases.

Associations Between Multiple Dimensions of Sleep and Mood During Early Adolescence: A Longitudinal Daily Diary Study.

Prior research has observed reciprocal associations between sleep and mood. However, these findings are primarily based on the examination of one or two aspects of sleep behaviors (e.g., duration, quality), neglecting how multiple dimensions of sleep (particularly indicators pertinent to adolescence, e.g., sleep variability) are linked to adolescent mood both daily and longitudinally. Drawing on a multidimensional framework for sleep, this study addressed the knowledge gap by examining the directionality of and differential effects for associations between multiple dimensions of sleep and mood during early adolescence. Participants were 273 Chinese early adolescents (34.39% girls; Mage = 11.57, SD = 1.31), who filled out a pre-survey on demographics (T1) and 7-day diaries on sleep (i.e., duration, quality, disturbance, and latency) and mood (i.e., positive and negative mood). Adolescents completed another wave of diary reports 1 year later (T2). Findings revealed both bidirectional and unidirectional, within-person effects depending on specific sleep parameters, suggesting differential associations between multiple dimensions of sleep and mood. Specifically, on days when adolescents had longer sleep latency and greater disturbance than usual, they reported higher negative mood the next day, whereas higher negative mood was linked to poorer sleep quality the next day. The longitudinal investigation found that greater variability in sleep quality at T1 was associated with higher negative mood at T2. These findings underscore the importance of understanding the complex interplay between sleep and mood by examining the directionality of and differential effects for the daily and longer-term associations between multiple dimensions of sleep and mood among early adolescents.

BZW1 is a prognostic and immunological biomarker in pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the digestive system and is called the "king of cancer" because it has been labeled with high malignancy, rapid progression, poor survival, and poor prognosis. Previously, it was reported that the basic leucine zipper and W2 domains 1 (BZW1) is involved in the progression of many tumors. However, its research in digestive system tumors such as pancreatic cancer is rarely studied. To explore potential biomarkers related to survival and prognosis of pancreatic cancer and provide a new targeted therapy for it. We first analyzed the mRNA and protein expression of BZW1 in pancreatic cancer. We then explored the correlation of BZW1 with survival prognosis and immune infiltration in pancreatic cancer patients. Finally, we explored BZW1-related gene enrichment analysis, including protein-protein interaction networks, gene ontology functional enrichment analysis, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis. The mRNA and protein expression of the BZW1 gene in pancreatic cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent normal tissues, and pancreatic cancer patients with high BZW1 expression had a poor prognosis. In addition, the expression of BZW1 was positively or negatively correlated with different immune cells of pancreatic cancer, such as CD4 + T lymphocytes, CD8 + T lymphocytes, B cells, macrophages, neutrophils, etc. Correlation enrichment analysis showed that we obtained 50 available experimentally determined BZW1-binding proteins and 100 targeted genes related to BZW1, and the intersection genes were eukaryotic translation termination factor 1 and Guanine nucleotide binding protein, alpha inhibiting activity polypeptide 3. Moreover, there was a positive correlation between BZW1 and eukaryotic translation termination factor 1 and Guanine nucleotide binding protein, alpha inhibiting activity polypeptide 3 genes in pancreatic cancer. Gene ontology enrichment analysis showed BZW1 was mainly related to biological processes such as "mRNA processing," "RNA splicing," "regulation of translational initiation," and "activation of innate immune response." The results of Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis further indicated that BZW1 may be involved in pancreatic carcinogenesis through the "spliceosome" and "ribosome." The BZW1 gene may be a potential immunotherapy target and a promising prognostic marker for pancreatic cancer.

Microgels for bioprinting: recent advancements and challenges.

Microgels have become a popular and powerful structural unit in the bioprinting field due to their advanced properties, ranging from the tiny size and well-connected hydrogel (nutrient) network to special rheological properties. Different microgels can be fabricated by a variety of fabrication methods including bulk crushing, auxiliary dripping, multiphase emulsion, and lithography technology. Traditionally, microgels can encapsulate specific cells and are used for in vitro disease models and in vivo organ regeneration. Furthermore, microgels can serve as a drug carrier to realize controlled release of drug molecules. Apart from being used as an independent application unit, recently, these microgels are widely applied as a specific bioink component in 3D bioprinting for in situ tissue repair or building special 3D structures. In this review, we introduce different methods used to generate microgels and the microgel-based bioink for bioprinting. Besides, the further tendency of microgel development in future is introduced and predicted to provide guidance for related researchers in exploring more effective ways to fabricate microgels and more potential bioprinting application cases as multifunctional bioink components.

Ethnic/Racial Identity, Adolescent Sleep, and Somatic Health: Discrimination and Stress Responses as Mediating Mechanisms.

PURPOSE: This study sought to examine whether the daily associations between ethnic/racial discrimination and stress responses served as mediators linking ethnic/racial identity (ERI), adolescent sleep health, and somatic symptoms. METHODS: Data were drawn from 279 adolescents of color (69% female; 24% African Americans; 31% Asian Americans; 41% Latinx; and 4% unknown ethnicity/race; Mage = 14.31 years, SD = 0.65). Adolescents first completed an online survey about ERI exploration and commitment; and then 14-day diaries on ethnic/racial discrimination and stress responses (i.e., rumination and problem-solving coping), and finally, a post-diary survey about sleep and somatic health over the past two weeks. This study adopts slope-as-mediator mediation modeling, a novel approach highlighting the role of daily-level experiences in developmental processes by examining the day-to-day association between two variables as an explanatory mechanism. RESULTS: The daily associations between ethnic/racial discrimination and two stress responses significantly mediated the link between ERI exploration and adolescents' subsequent sleep and somatic health. For ERI commitment, only the mediating pathway of the association between ethnic/racial discrimination and problem-solving coping was significant. DISCUSSION: Daily responses to ethnic/racial discrimination, both adaptively and maladaptively, could in part explain the association between ERI exploration and adolescent health. Active participation in cultural activities may increase adaptive responses to ethnic/racial discrimination; meanwhile, uncertainty about ERI may lead to maladaptive reactions such as rumination. For ERI commitment, only problem-solving coping with ethnic/racial discrimination mediated the links to health outcomes, an observation possibly explained by the benefits of holding a strong sense of commitment to ERI.

Varying mechanical forces drive sensory epithelium formation.

The mechanical cues of the external microenvironment have been recognized as essential clues driving cell behavior. Although intracellular signals modulating cell fate during sensory epithelium development is well understood, the driving force of sensory epithelium formation remains elusive. Here, we manufactured a hybrid hydrogel with tunable mechanical properties for the cochlear organoids culture and revealed that the extracellular matrix (ECM) drives sensory epithelium formation through shifting stiffness in a stage-dependent pattern. As the driving force, moderate ECM stiffness activated the expansion of cochlear progenitor cell (CPC)-derived epithelial organoids by modulating the integrin α3 (ITGA3)/F-actin cytoskeleton/YAP signaling. Higher stiffness induced the transition of CPCs into sensory hair cells (HCs) through increasing the intracellular Ca2+ signaling mediated by PIEZO2 and then activating KLF2 to accomplish the cell specification . Our results identify the molecular mechanism of sensory epithelium formation guided by ECM mechanical force and contribute to developing therapeutic approaches for HC regeneration.

Is it a vicious circle and for whom? The reciprocal association between rumination and somatic symptoms and moderation by stress: A daily diary study among Chinese college students.

College students who experienced somatic symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic may engage in rumination, but their bidirectional nature remains underexplored. Symptom perception theory suggests a reciprocal relationship between rumination and somatic symptoms, and the multiple-stressor perspective and the perseverative cognition hypothesis assume that the reciprocal association might be exacerbated by high stress. In this study, we examined temporal associations between rumination and somatic symptoms and variations by patterns of stress related to COVID-19 and daily hassles. A total of 582 Chinese college students provided daily reports on rumination, somatic symptoms, COVID-related stress, and daily hassles for seven consecutive days in November 2020. A cross-lagged panel model showed a positive reciprocal association between rumination and somatic symptoms. Greater rumination predicted more next-day somatic symptoms, and more somatic symptoms increased next-day rumination. Dual trajectory analysis identified four stress patterns of COVID-related stress and daily hassles (i.e. low-low, low-high, high-low, and high-high), and multi-group analysis found the reciprocal association only presented in the high-high group. Our findings indicate a vicious circle between rumination and somatic symptoms that is dependent on heterogeneous stress patterns. Attention should be paid to the high-risk group with both high levels of COVID-related stress and daily hassles.

HDAC11 is related to breast cancer prognosis and inhibits invasion and proliferation of breast cancer cells.

OBJECTIVE: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) not only regulate histone acetylation but also participate in many pathophysiologic processes, especially the development of cancer, including breast cancer. However, whether Histone deacetylase 11 can influence breast cancer is still unknown. This study investigated the relationship between HDAC11 expression in breast cancers and clinicopathologic parameters, and used small interference RNA (siRNA) to determine the biological behavioural changes after knockdown of HDAC11. METHODS: Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was employed to detect the expression of HDAC11 in a tissue microarray (TMA) of 145 patients with invasive ductal breast carcinoma. Transwell and wound healing assays were employed to analyze cell invasion and migration. The proliferation ability of cells was determined by Cell Counting Kit (CCK8). RESULTS: The results show that the expression of HDAC11 was positively correlated with the overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients. Specific HDAC11 knockdown enhanced MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, this study found that HDAC11 expression is positively correlated with the overall survival rate of patients. HDAC11 can inhibit the invasion and proliferation of breast cancer cells to a certain extent and can be used as a good prognosis marker.

Parent-Child Separation and Diurnal Cortisol Rhythms Among Left-Behind Adolescents: The Moderating Role of Sex.

Prior research examining parent-child separation and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis functioning has primarily focused on separation due to parental divorce or loss or forced migration. Less clear is the impact of parental economic migration on adolescents' HPA axis functioning. The present study fills this gap by examining diurnal cortisol patterns among left-behind adolescents who experienced separation from their migrant parents. Participants were 293 Chinese adolescents (33.4% girls, 66.21% left-behind adolescents; Mage = 10.80 years old, SD = 0.82 years). Two-level multilevel modeling was conducted to examine the associations between parent-child separation experiences and diurnal cortisol patterns. Although no significant differences were found between left-behind adolescents and their non-left-behind peers, results revealed that left-behind adolescents who experienced parent-child separation at earlier ages had more blunted diurnal cortisol slopes (usually signaling poorer mental and physical health), compared to their counterparts who experienced separation at older ages. Left-behind adolescent girls who had more adverse separation experiences exhibited smaller waking cortisol and blunted diurnal slopes; these findings were not observed among left-behind adolescent boys. Observing the association between timing of parent-child separation and adolescents' diurnal cortisol and the moderating effects of child sex, this study contributes uniquely to the developmental science of left-behind adolescents' physiological health.

3D-printed tortuous vessels with Photodissociable and morphology-controllable ink.

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a high mortality cerebrovascular disease associated with vessel curvature. However, the relevant mechanism remains unclear due to a lack of appropriate tortuous vascular models to investigate and validate. This study explores the combination of projection-based 3D bioprinting (PBP) with photo-stimulus-responsive techniques to fabricate a sodium alginate (SA)/acrylamide (AAM) hydrogel vascular scaffold capable of bending deformation. The coordination of Fe3+ ions with carboxylate groups in the alginate chains of the vascular scaffold acts as a molecular switch, which can be dissociated through photoreduction to enable the deformation response. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) results verified the deformation principle. By subjecting the scaffold to UV light exposure, Fe3+ is reduced to Fe2+ in spatially selected regions, resulting in the release of strain and subsequent deformation. Furthermore, it also controlled the degree and direction of curvature of the vessels. The cell seeding experiment verified that the vascular scaffold showed excellent biocompatibility. Overall, our approach could be used to generate an in vitro model of curved vascular pathology to investigate the pathogenesis and provide new directions for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases in the future.

Trajectories of Perceived Stress among Students in Transition to College: Mindset Antecedents and Adjustment Outcomes.

There is growing evidence of a clear association between students' perceived stress and their adjustment to life at college. However, the predictors and implications of distinct changing patterns of perceived stress during the transition to college life are less clear. To address these research gaps, the current study aims to identify distinct patterns of perceived stress trajectories among 582 Chinese first-year college students (Mage = 18.11, SDage = 0.65; 69.40% female) across the first 6 months upon enrollment. Three distinct profiles of perceived stress trajectories, i.e., low-stable (15.63%), middle-decreasing (69.07%), and high-decreasing (15.29%), were identified. Moreover, individuals who followed the low-stable trajectory showed better distal outcomes (specifically, higher levels of well-being and academic adjustment) 8 months after enrollment than those who followed the other two trajectories. Furthermore, two types of positive mindset (a growth mindset of intelligence and a stress-is-enhancing mindset) contributed to differences in perceived stress trajectory, either independently or jointly. These findings highlight the significance of identifying different patterns of perceived stress among students during the transition to college, as well as the protective roles of both a stress mindset and a mindset of intelligence.

3D Prestress Bioprinting of Directed Tissues.

Many mammalian tissues adopt a specific cellular arrangement under stress stimulus that enables their unique function. However, conventional 3D encapsulation often fails to recapitulate the complexities of these arrangements, thus motivating the need for advanced cellular arrangement approaches. Here, an original 3D prestress bioprinting approach of directed tissues under the synergistic effect of static sustained tensile stress and molecular chain orientation, with an aid of slow crosslinking in bioink, is developed. The semi-crosslinking state of the designed bioink exhibits excellent elasticity for applying stress on the cells during the sewing-like process. After bioprinting, the bioink gradually forms complete crosslinking and keeps the applied stress force to induce cell-orientated growth. More importantly, multiple cell types can be arranged directionally by this approach, while the internal stress of the hydrogel filament is also adjustable. In addition, compared with conventional bioprinted skin, the 3D prestress bioprinted skin results in a better wound healing effect due to promoting the angiogenesis of granulation tissue. This study provides a prospective strategy to engineer skeletal muscles, as well as tendons, ligaments, vascular networks, or combinations thereof in the future.
