“…BioBots, USA developed a human liver tissue using their commercially available bioink called BioGel and HepG2 cells. The BioBots demonstrated the fabrication of high-resolution liver tissue construct and it remained viable for 2 weeks [ 282 ]. Sarah et al demonstrated the automated fabrication of a vascularized human liver tissue construct using primary human hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells along with isolated fragments of intact human micro vessels as vascular precursors [ 283 ].…”

Fabrication of functional organs is the holy grail of tissue engineering and the possibilities of repairing a partial or complete liver to treat chronic liver disorders are discussed in this review. Liver is the largest gland in the human body and plays a responsible role in majority of metabolic function and processes. Chronic liver disease is one of the leading causes of death globally and the current treatment strategy of organ transplantation holds its own demerits. Hence there is a need to develop an in vitro liver model that mimics the native microenvironment. The developed model should be a reliable to understand the pathogenesis, screen drugs and assist to repair and replace the damaged liver. The three-dimensional bioprinting is a promising technology that recreates in vivo alike in vitro model for transplantation, which is the goal of tissue engineers. The technology has great potential due to its precise control and its ability to homogeneously distribute cells on all layers in a complex structure. This review gives an overview of liver tissue engineering with a special focus on 3D bioprinting and bioinks for liver disease modelling and drug screening.
