Abstract
The ability to precisely arrange and control the assembly of diverse cell types into intricate 3D structures remains a critical challenge in tissue engineering. Herein, a versatile and programmable 3D cell sheet assembly is described technology by developing a biodegradable nanochannel (BNC) membrane to fulfill this unmet need. This membrane, hierarchically assembled from 2D nanomaterial aggregates, exhibits both exceptional fluid permeability and rapid biodegradation under physiological conditions. The unique properties of the BNC membrane enable precise spatial and temporal control over cell assembly, facilitating the creation of complex 3D cellular architectures. The BNC membrane is integrated with a programmable negative-pressure-based cell assembly strategy to form single and multicellular 3D sheets in a highly controllable manner. To demonstrate the feasibility and translatability of this technology in the field of tissue engineering approaches to screen stem cell-derived therapeutics with “core–shell” macrophage-fibroblast multicellular patterns and treat murine diabetic skin wounds via scaffold-free 3D adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC) sheets are devised. In summary, the results demonstrate that the BNC membrane-based 3D cell sheet assembly approach significantly advances current tissue engineering capabilities, offering substantial potential for both regenerative medicine applications and the development of physiologically relevant disease models.
