Abstract

Digital light processing (DLP) bioprinting, known for its high resolution and speed, enables the precise spatial arrangement of biomaterials and has become integral to advancing tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Nevertheless, inherent light scattering presents significant challenges to the fidelity of the manufactured structures. Herein, we introduce a photoinhibition strategy based on Rutin nanoparticles (Rnps), attenuating the scattering effect through concurrent photoabsorption and free radical reaction. Compared to the widely utilized biocompatible photoabsorber tartrazine (Tar), Rnps-infused bioink enhanced printing speed (1.9Ă—), interlayer homogeneity (58% less overexposure), resolution (38.3% improvement), and print tolerance (3Ă— high-precision range) to minimize trial-and-error. The biocompatible and antioxidative Rnps significantly improved cytocompatibility and exhibited resistance to oxidative stress-induced damage in printed constructs, as demonstrated with human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells (hiPSC-ECs). The related properties of Rnps facilitate the facile fabrication of multimaterial, heterogeneous, and cell-laden biomimetic constructs with intricate structures. The developed photoinhibitor, with its profound adaptability, promises wide biomedical applications tailored to specific biological requirements.
