A Cylindrical Molding Method for the Biofabrication of Plane-Shaped Skeletal Muscle Tissue

Muscle tissues can be fabricated in vitro by culturing myoblast-populated hydrogels. To counter the shrinkage of the myoblast-populated hydrogels during culture, a pair of anchors are generally utilized to fix the two ends of the hydrogel. Here, we propose an alternative method to counter the shrink...
