Construction of Multicellular Neural Tissue Using Three-Dimensional Printing Technology: Cell Interaction.

The study of the human nervous system remains challenging due to its inherent complexity and difficulty in obtaining original samples. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is a rapidly evolving technology in the field of tissue engineering that has made significant contributions to several disciplines, including neuroscience. In order to more accurately reflect the intricate multicellular milieu of the in vivo environment, an increasing number of studies have commenced experimentation with the coprinting of diverse cell types. This article provides an overview of technical details and the application of 3D bioprinting with multiple cell types in the field of neuroscience, focusing on the challenges of coprinting and the research conducted based on multicellular printing. This review discusses cell interactions in coprinting systems, stem cell applications, the construction of brain-like organoids, the establishment of disease models, and the potential for integrating 3D bioprinting with other 3D culture techniques.
