Designing and Constructing a Prototype Standalone Bioreactor Designing and constructing a prototype standalone bioreactor using 3D printing and finite element analysis: A tool to define osteogenic differentiation in a 3D mechanical environment Sigurður Rúnar Rúnarsson Thesis of 60 ECTS credits submitted to the School of Science and Engineering at Reykjavík University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Biomedical Engineering January 2019 Supervisors: Ólafur Eysteinn Sigurjónsson, PhD Professor, Reykjavík University, Iceland Paolo Gargiulo, PhD Associate Professor, Reykjavik University, Iceland Examiner: Hans Guttormur Þormar, Examiner CEO ii Copyright Sigurður Rúnar Rúnarsson January 2019 iv Designing and constructing a prototype standalone bioreactor using 3D printing and finite element analysis: A tool to define osteogenic differentiation in a 3D mechanical environment Sigurður Rúnar Rúnarsson January 2019 Abstract Tissue engineering aims to develop methods to construct tissues in vitro that have identical tissue-specific morphological, biological, chemical, and mechanical properties to those cultured in vivo. In vivo tissues are embedded into complex environments, communicating both with nearby zones and with the whole organism, which determines the tissue-specific function. Special instruments called bioreactors are used to mimic these conditions outside of the body. Bioreactors provide a controlled environment where specific parameters can be determined by the researcher, to match desired biological condition. In this project, an existing bioreactor system was redesigned and improved using computer aided design and 3D printing technology to make it operational for future studies involving osteogenic differentiation. This bioreactor system provides compression on scaffolds located in a chamber. It also has indirect perfusion, maintains a temperature of 37°C when running, and can maintain an optimal pH value of (7.2 to 7.6) for osteogenic differentiation. The main issues in the previously-existing system were: sterility problems; bulging of the bioreactor chamber during heating, leakage of culture media along joints during bioreactor operation; and lack of pH stability. Several iterations of changes by trial and error were made to improve the overall design. Using µCT technology, a screw mechanism was attached to the chamber which proved to be an important addition. An internal plate system was implemented to ease scaffold placement among other uses. Further ideas for future development were also discussed. A manual was made for the bioreactor and protocols were developed for cleaning and sterilizing the chamber. Bioactive scaffolds seeded with mesenchymal stem cells were used in test experiments. Additionally, a finite elements analysis was carried out on the bioreactor chamber to quantify the compression and perfusion speed necessary for viability of mesenchymal stem cells inside the bioreactor system. A flow analysis of culture media was also analyzed for different chamber designs. vi Þróun og smíði á frumgerð lífferlakerfis með þrívíddarprentun og einingaaðferðargreiningu: Tæki fyrir beinsérhæfingu í þrívíddar mekanísku umhverfi Sigurður Rúnar Rúnarsson Janúar 2019 Útdráttur Vefjaverkfræði miðar að þróun á aðferðum við að smíða vefi utan líkama sem hafa sömu eiginleika í vefjaformgerð, lífræðilega, efnislega og mekaníska og þeir vefir sem vaxa innan líkamans.

  • Vascularization Strategies in Bone Tissue Engineering §
    cells Review Vascularization Strategies in Bone Tissue Engineering § Filip Simunovic * and Günter Finkenzeller Freiburg University Medical Center, Department of Plastic and Hand Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, University of Freiburg, 79106 Freiburg, Germany * Correspondence: fi[email protected] § This work is dedicated to our recently retired head of department, Prof. Dr. G. Björn Stark, who established tissue engineering research in Freiburg. Abstract: Bone is a highly vascularized tissue, and its development, maturation, remodeling, and regeneration are dependent on a tight regulation of blood vessel supply. This condition also has to be taken into consideration in the context of the development of artificial tissue substitutes. In classic tissue engineering, bone-forming cells such as primary osteoblasts or mesenchymal stem cells are introduced into suitable scaffolds and implanted in order to treat critical-size bone defects. However, such tissue substitutes are initially avascular. Because of the occurrence of hypoxic conditions, especially in larger tissue substitutes, this leads to the death of the implanted cells. Therefore, it is necessary to devise vascularization strategies aiming at fast and efficient vascularization of implanted artificial tissues. In this review article, we present and discuss the current vascularization strategies in bone tissue engineering. These are based on the use of angiogenic growth factors, the co-implantation of blood vessel forming cells, the ex vivo microfabrication of blood vessels by means of bioprinting, and surgical methods for creating surgically transferable composite tissues.

Received: 29 February 2020; Accepted: 30 March 2020; Published: 31 March 2020 Abstract: It is difficult to fabricate tubular-shaped tissues and organs (e.g., trachea, blood vessel, and esophagus tissue) with traditional biofabrication techniques (e.g., electrospinning, cell-sheet engineering, and mold-casting) because these have complicated multiple processes. In addition, the tubular-shaped tissues and organs have their own design with target-specific mechanical and biological properties. Therefore, the customized geometrical and physiological environment is required as one of the most critical factors for functional tissue regeneration. 3D bioprinting technology has been receiving attention for the fabrication of patient-tailored and complex-shaped free-form architecture with high reproducibility and versatility.

Optimization of scaffold design to generate tissue-engineered cartilage has traditionally been conducted using in-vitro and in-vivo models. Recent advances in computational analysis allow us to significantly decrease the time and cost of scaffold optimization using finite element analysis (FEA). FEA is an in-silico analysis technique that allows for scaffold design optimization by predicting mechanical responses of cells and scaffolds under applied loads. Finite element analyses can potentially mimic the morphology of cartilage using mesh elements (tetrahedral, hexahedral), material properties (elastic, hyperelastic, poroelastic, composite), physiological loads by applying loading conditions (static, dynamic), and constitutive stress–strain equations (linear, porous–elastic, biphasic). Furthermore, FEA can be applied to the study of the effects of dynamic loading, material properties cell differentiation, cell activity, scaffold structure optimization, and interstitial fluid flow, in isolated or combined multi-scale models.

Here, we explored the feasibility of fabricating polylactic acid-hydroxyapatite (PLA-HA) composite scafolds. These scafolds were constructed from vascularized tissue engineered bone using an in vivo bioreactor (IVB) strategy with three-dimensional printing technology. Specifcally, a rabbit model was established to prefabricate vascularized tissue engineered bone in two groups. An experimental group (EG) was designed using a tibial periosteum capsule flled with 3D printed (3DP) PLA-HA composite scafolds seeded with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and crossed with a vascular bundle. 3DP PLA-HA scafolds were also combined with autologous BMSCs and transplanted to tibial periosteum without blood vessel as a control group (CG). After four and eight weeks, neovascularisation and bone tissues were analysed by studying related genes, micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) and histological examinations between groups. The results showed that our method capably generated vascularized tissue engineered bone in vivo. Furthermore, we observed signifcant diferences in neovascular and new viable bone formation in the two groups. In this study, we demonstrated the feasibility of generating large vascularized bone tissues in vivo with 3DP PLA-HA composite scafolds. Te reconstruction of large size bone defects caused by tumour resection, trauma or congenital malformation remains a major clinical challenge in reconstructive, orthopaedic and craniofacial surgeries1.

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been applied to accelerate bone formation in DO. However, the optimal time point for cell therapy in DO remains unknown. This study sought to determine the optimal time point of cell administration to achieve early bone consolidation in DO. We hypothesized that the ratio of circulating MSCs to peripheral mononuclear cells and the level of cytokines in serum might be indicators for cell administration in DO. Methods: Unilateral tibial osteotomy with an external fixator was performed in adult Sprague Dawley rats. Three days after osteotomy, the tibia was lengthened at 0.5 mm/12 h for 5 days. At first, 5 rats were used to analyze the blood components at 6 different time points (3 days before lengthening, on the day lengthening began, or 3, 6, 10, or 14 days after lengthening began) by sorting circulating MSCs and measuring serum levels of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) and interleukin 1β.
