Biofabrication
Biofabrication is an interdisciplinary research field with the aim of generating functional tissue constructs. The basic components therefor are cells, matrix materials and growth factors. Principles and methods from medicine, natural sciences and engineering are combined to develop and apply a fundamental understanding of the relationship between the structure and function of tissues. Necessary properties of implants are a defined 3D structure, a tissue-specific hierarchical morphology and a biocompatible biochemical composition.
The Biofabrication working group is investigating the suitability and processing of various biopolymers – including structural proteins – for tissue regeneration. In order to enable a precise three-dimensional arrangement of the cell-material scaffolds, new cell-friendly bio-inks are also being developed for 3D bio-printing. In particular, recombinantly produced spider silk proteins are modified for specific applications and processed into films, hydrogels, foams, nonwoven meshes, and nanofibres with aligned structures and controlled topographies using different processing methods.

To date, organ transplantation is the most effective clinical solution for the treatment of severe organ failure. While the liver, kidney, heart, pancreas and lung are among the most commonly needed donor organs worldwide, the pancreas, lung or heart in particular are only available post mortem. With the increasing availability of 3D printing methods and the establishment of induced pluripotent stem cells, biomedical research has moved towards the biofabrication of artificial tissue. In the future, it should also be possible to produce entire organs from a patient’s own body cells. In the case of the heart, the regenerative capacity of muscle tissue is particularly limited, meaning that organ function can be severely restricted in the event of damage, e.g. due to a heart attack. This may be compensated for by implanting tissue patches. Hydrogels as polymer networks are of particular relevance for the fabrication of such artificial tissues, as they resemble natural tissue with high water content. In this regard, biopolymers such as recombinant spider silk are well suited to extend the processing window for good processability without impairing cell function, as they can be modified by molecular biological methods and can also be processed into various morphologies, including hydrogels.
Thus, this project aims for the optimization and development of recombinant spider silk protin-based bioinks for the culture of hiPSC derived cardiomyocytes to allow higher complex structures.

Artificial engineered tissues are an attractive alternative to transplantation for the treatment of severely damaged or even lost tissues/organs due to disease or injury. These consist of three main components: Cells, a suitable scaffold structure and signals such as growth factors or mechanical/electrical stimuli. Spider silk materials are suitable for such a scaffold structures due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility and not eliciting an immune response in the human body.
A major challenge in tissue engineering and biofabrication of 3D scaffolds is the adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients due to the lack of a functioning vascular system. In nature, new blood vessels are formed in the early embryonic stage by differentiation of angioblasts into endothelial cells, a process called vasculogenesis. Angiogenesis describes the sprouting of capillaries from already existing vessels. In this project, a hierarchically structured tissue with tubular elements for oxygen and nutrient supply should be produced, forming the basis for later vascularisation of the constructs after tissue maturation. For this purpose, recombinant spider silk proteins are processed through different methods, and the resulting constructs are seeded with cells to mimic the natural vascular structure.

My project concerns reconnecting damaged peripheral nerves. The goal is to develop a selfrolling graft which wraps around the nerve stumps and promotes nerve regeneration. The graft will be promoting the transdifferentiation of Schwann cells into their repair function in order to guide the axons of the damaged nerve.
The project combines biomaterial research and cell culture. On the one hand, a polysaccharide-based self-rolling construct with aligned, electro-spun protein fibres made from recombinant spider silk will be developed. On the other hand, these constructs will be tested in cell culture experiments to analyse the viability, proliferation, morphology and adherence of Schwann cells. Furthermore, a co-culture with nerve cells with activatable neurite growth will be established to investigate the complex interaction of Schwann cells and neurones in the biomaterial constructs.
In the case of severe skin injuries, the body’s wound healing mechanisms are often insufficient. For their treatment, tissue engineering methods are increasingly coming into focus. A suitable scaffold for skin regeneration should enable immediate closure of the wound, suppress infections, accelerate wound healing and reduce scarring, among other aspects.
The aim of this project is to create two-layered skin constructs fulfilling the aforementioned properties. The construct will contain a dermal layer with fibroblasts and an epidermal layer with keratinocytes. The cell-material interactions as well as morphology, proliferation, differentiation and migration of these cells will be tested in 3D cell culture using different biomaterial scaffolds. A special focus is on materials based on recombinantly produced spider silk proteins, which are used in the morphologies foam, hydrogel and non-woven meshes.

In recent years, the topic of alternative protein-based food production routes such as lab-grown or cultured meat has become a topic of increasing research. For culturing meat, stem cells are grown in culture medium and differentiated into fat and muscle tissue. While ground meat such as burgers are already produced for the market, culturing structured meat is still a major scientific challenge. The project focuses on the production of cultured meat using protein-based scaffolds. During the course of the project myoblast progenitors (known as myosatellite cells) and adipocyte progenitors (known as adipocyte stem cells or preadipocytes) will be isolated from bovine sources and cultured using hydrogels and cryogels as scaffolds.
Due to its unique mechanical and biochemical properties spider silk is in the focus of research since decades. Spider silk proteins are biodegradable, biocompatible and show no immune reaction in the human body, thereby representing a suitable material for biomedical applications. The development of recombinant technologies, inspired by the natural occurring gene sequences of the European garden spider Araneus diadematus, enable the biotechnological production of spider silk proteins in high-yields. They can be processed into several different morphologies, such as fibers, films, hydrogels, foams, nonwovens and particles, leading to diverse potential applications. With respect to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, specific cell adhesion is a decisive factor. Since cell attachment to unmodified silk protein is often low, it is sometimes necessary to develop proteins including cell-interacting ligands. The project objective is thus to modify and functionalize biocompatible spider silk scaffolds for guided cell-substrate-interaction by using genetic or chemical coupling and varying processing methods.
