April 2026 in “Microsystems & Nanoengineering” This study developed HA-gel-dex hydrogels with enhanced ECM-like properties and functionality, showing promise for 3D bioprinting, tissue repair, and as wound dressings due to improved cell interaction, cytocompatibility, antimicrobial synergy, and wound healing in mice compared to traditional ECM bio-inks.
This review discusses how advancements in biomaterial engineering and 3D bioprinting are transforming skin wound-healing therapies, highlighting innovations in bioinks and the evolving global market potential of these technologies for developing next-generation skin substitutes.
January 2026 in “RSC Advances” The hydrogel helps heal wounds without scars by releasing two drugs gradually.
This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.
This abstract introduces 3D bioprinted skin grafts as a promising alternative to traditional skin grafts, emphasizing how using stem cells in the bioink can enhance vascularization and hair follicle regeneration, potentially improving graft integration and function without the donor site risks.
