Bioprinted 3D renal architecture recapitulates kidney function

Human proximal tubule cells adhere to the hollow channel, forming a functional, 3D renal architecture. Credit: Lewis Lab/Wyss Institute at Harvard UniversityResearchers from the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have bioprinted a functional 3D renal architecture with living human epithelial cells.

Previously, the team bioprinted tissue constructs made of living cells alongside a vascular network in an extracellular matrix. These constructs are functional in vitro for more than a month.
