Experimental study demonstrates bio-acoustic levitation of human stem cell-derived neuroprogenitors into 3D constructs, highlighting a novel platform for engineering layered brain tissues.
A bio-acoustic levitational assembly method for engineering of multilayered, 3D brainlike constructs is presented. Acoustic radiation forces are used to levitate neuroprogenitors derived from human embryonic stem cells in 3D multilayered fibrin tissue constructs. The neuro-progenitor cells are subsequently differentiated in neural cells, resulting in a 3D neuronal construct with inter and intralayer neurite elongations.
