3D bioprinting of multi-cellular tumor microenvironment for prostate cancer metastasis

Abstract: Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most lethal cancers in men worldwide. The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays an important role in PCa development, which consists of tumor cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and extracellular matrix. Hyaluronic acid (HA) and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the major components in the TME and are correlated with PCa proliferation and metastasis, while the underlying mechanism is still not fully understood due to the lack of biomimetic extracellular matrix compone… Show more

“…68 Methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) has been successfully used for co-cultures of prostate cancer cells lines with cells from the TME, and for automated protocols with bioprinting. [69][70][71] Therefore, this approach holds great potential for tackling the next step of introducing patient-derived cells.…”

“…Unlike traditional soft-lithography methods, 3D printers are used to fabricate the microfluidic devices using inorganic or polymer materials of varying chemical compositions, stiffnesses and densities [75]. In the context of prostate cancer, Xu et al (2023) [76], recently fabricated a co-culture system composed of a gelatin methacryloyl/chondroitin sulfate-based hydrogel to examine how hyaluronic acid and cancer-associated fibroblasts, two major components of the tumor microenvironment, influence prostate cancer behaviours. Both PC3 and C4-2b cells lines were used, which have been shown to represent castration-resistant tumors.…”
