The integration of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and 3D bioprinting is revolutionizing skin tissue engineering by enhancing precision and control at the cellular level. While 3D bioprinting can replicate complex tissue structures akin to natural skin, it faces challenges like scalability and vascularization. scRNA-seq addresses these issues by providing detailed insights into cellular diversity and gene expression in bioprinted tissues. By combining these technologies, researchers can develop advanced bioprinting methods and biomaterials, significantly improving the regenerative capabilities and functionality of engineered skin tissues. This review highlights the synergy between these technologies and their role in advancing skin regeneration and therapeutic strategies.
