    Deaths caused by vascular diseases such as aneurysms, peripheral arterial diseases and intravascular thrombosis accounted for 31% of global deaths


    The research team at Texas A&M University aims to reshape the existing methods by applying 3D bioprinting technology to vascular medicine to close this gap and improve the translatability of these technologies


    3D bioprinting technology is an advanced manufacturing technology that can fabricate unique, tissue-shaped structures in a layer-by-layer manner, embedding cells, and making their arrangement more likely to reflect the native multicellular composition of blood vessel structures


    To overcome these shortcomings, Gaharwar and Jain developed a new nano-engineered bio-ink to print three-dimensional, anatomically accurate multicellular blood vessels


    Gaharwar said: “A very unique feature of this nano-engineered bio-ink is that regardless of the cell density, it has demonstrated high printability and can protect the encapsulated cells from high shear forces during the bioprinting process.
