  • Bioprinting uses a 3D printing process to create synthetic human tissue. One day it could therefore be used to print replacement human organs. This video by Christopher Barnatt explores future medical and cosmetic bioprinting applications.

    To everybody visiting here from ExplainingComputers in June/July 2019, thanks greatly for your support for this video. You smashed the 1000 threshold (over 9000 in 48 hours!), and UA-cam has now deemed the video suitable for advertising. So there are now no issues with any EC or ETF videos.
    Thanks again,

    Not quite bioprinting, but a step nearer, last year I had a crown made up for a tooth that broke. The dentist took a scan, which was sent to a 3D printing company through the net. The new crown was quickly printed, and sent back within a few days. Previous techniques were to take a mould, post, then wait for the crown to be delivered. Previously, they have to allow about 10% tolerance for when the mould dries. Now the crowns are an exact fit. The new crown I had fitted was amazing! - I was very impressed.

    Bioprinting being what it is, they're probably going to need a *lot* more than four types of “ink”. Keeping the organ alive while it's being printed, might be a challenge. And some organs rely on things like tension to keep their shape, which would make things tricky, but I guess that's what the semi-solid gel is for. But once they do get it printed, and if they solve the problem of keeping it alive, there should be some forgiveness for the traditional problems associated with 3D printing, because biology has a tendency to heal, so if they give the organ some time afterward, it shouldn't have any problems with layer adhesion.
    But the exciting thing is, I recently learned that someone got a Nobel prize for figuring out how to turn skin cells into stem cells. I think the award was from 2012, but I didn't find out until very recently. But anyway… This should be a major step in removing one of the major obstacles in making bioprinting practical, as stem cells can turn into more other cell types.

    because the printer uses cells of the patient right?

    • @ExplainingTheFuture
      @ExplainingTheFuture  8 років тому +6

      +becca Exactly right -- as this technology is developed, it will allow -- probably by the late 2020s or early 2030s -- replacement human organs to be created from a culture of a patient's own cells, and that will hence not be rejected.

Would it be possible to create a body part for the opposite gender for a person for a sex change operation and have the part fully functional to how it should work and without any health complications. It makes me want to also post a question I had on another video relating to this in which the question is if someone has a hereditary condition that they received based on their DNA, such as diabetes in some cases where the pancreas would just completely shut down, would such a person be able to replace that organ and not be diabetic anymore or would their DNA used to create the secondary organ eventually make the secondary organ also lead to diabetes?

      Wow, these are good questions. In September 2016 Organovo announced that they expect to be in a position to request an FDA license to trial bioprinted human liver patches in human patients in 3-5 years. So the technology is progressing fast, and in turn these means that questions like you raise will become of practical concern sooner rather than later . . .

    • @raventhorX
      @raventhorX 7 років тому

      That's definitely good to hear. I was wondering on this as well because I have a friend who has a failed pancreas and has been failed since he was 6 years old so he has diabetes and takes the needle. I figure if this proved effective and even 3d printed organs from the original host don't fail like their predecessors then this could even potentially cure diabetes via implanting a 3d printed pancreas with little chance of rejection as well. Currently going to school for cyber security, however i enjoy just about everything technology has to offer and definitely would like to progress my knowledge to other fields outside of cyber security as well. Actually had my A+ instructor show this video in class.

    @KnocksX Yes, finding the genetic triggers that may enable humans to grow new body parts (the genes that are shut down before or shortly after birth) offers significant possibilities. Animals like crocodiles after all can still do this. And scientists have already isolated the gene that may allow a person to grow a new set of teeth in later life. This all said, if you suffered major internal organ failure a bioprinted replacement would probably be part of the best (and most rapid) treatment.

    @Bourinos02 For regenerating tissue, yes -- absoutely. But bioprinting (or in some instances bioprinted scaffolds or even inorganic 3D printer scaffolds) will still be "necessary" where existing tissue is badly damaged, diseased or no longer exists. An amputee could potentially be bioprinted a new leg, but would be unlikely to be able to use stem cell developments to grow a new one (well, perhaps). And of course stem cell, other genetic & bioprinting tech will all develop & be applied together.

    I don't see what UA-cam's problem is with this video. It's non offensive, professionally presented, educational and technically informative. Chris I'd start hounding UA-cam to get your monetization reinstated if I were you. They're just at it trying to get you to increase your traffic so their advertisers get more hits. They must think we're daft. lol

      I assure you he's been at it. UA-cam have spent more time emailing than it would have taken to review the video [and apologise] for the sanction.

    I watched it at your request, very interesting video indeed, I hope u get the views you need.

    Will the cells needed for the bioprinters be only stem-cells or also cells collected from the individual?

    Wow! Didn't know this even existed. It's been eight years since this video was posted. I would have to believe the technology has advanced a lot but I've not heard much about it.

      The media decides what they want to report. :) Organovo started selling bioprinted human liver and kidney tissues for use in drug testing several years ago, and expect human trials of bioprinted liver grafts in 2021.

    Can someone please explain to me what is the use of hydrogel when creating new cells or tissues in depth please? I am researching bioprinters for my showcase project.
    Also, how do the cells that we have taken from the patient grow?

    • @ExplainingTheFuture
      @ExplainingTheFuture  7 років тому +2

      The hydrogel -- or "biopaper" -- supports and protects the cells during printout, and holds them in place until they can fuse into self-supporting material. The cells taken from the patient are grown (multiplied) in a cell culture in a lab.

    Do you think this could print new brain matter? Also, the "face printing" could be done by replacing skin etc.

    I really enjoyed your videos on 3dprinting! It’s something I am thinking about getting into and I really appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge. So, thank you! One thing I would recommend, if I may be so bold. You really need some better web design. Your site is very... 90s. I'm not trying to be rude, just a friendly suggestion. I hope to see more videos in the future! Thanks again!

    Did you do a follow up on this? There was a heart printed recently...

      I did a more recent medial 3D printing video here: ua-cam.com/video/P2peq82e8is/v-deo.html And I'm planning a 2019 bioprintinb video. :)

    Back from the future revisiting this video 8 years later (doing my duty as a devoted watcher of your excellent work)... still sounds like science fiction, and a little bit scary - just think of the implications of "printing" another face on yourself or "staying young" like a Black Mirror episode, what could possibly go wrong there?...
    PS: take that, you pesky Google algorithms!

    EC pointed me here and I hope you get your viewing target. I enjoyed the video but has anything in your forecast changed in the eight years since you made this prediction?

    @psykedude At present all this stuff is still experimental. However, as regards the capilliaries issue, the printer does not need to do this level of detail, as over a period of hours the cells self-arrange to do this themselves. Organovo have already demonstrated how this can work in their printing of blood vessels, nerve drafts and bits of cardiac tissue. Get living cells in roughly the right places, and Nature just over to finish the job. Amazing!

    even the things about BCI and cybernetics
    keep up the awesome work people..
