CEREBRAL PALSY (CP)
Etiology: Impaired CNS
development due to ischemia or
malformation of the developing
brain
Onset: Pregnancy to ~3 y.o
Prevalence:
• 2-3 in 1,000 births in
USA/Europe.
• Most common cause of childhood
disability

MUSCLE STEM CELLS
Muscle Satellite cells (MuSCs):
• Muscle stem cells that reside between the basal lamina (a layer of ECM) and the
sarcolemma (the plasma membrane) of muscle fibers.
Function:
• Pre- and post- natal muscle growth
• Muscle repair when injury occurs

OBJECTIVES: In the Context of Contractures
Long-term goals:
To create an in vitro 3D-bioprinted skeletal muscle tissue
1. To investigate cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions
2. To test new drug or cell therapies to support muscle rehabilitation and surgery in CP
Project Aims:
1. Demonstrate feasibility of growing myotubes on 3D bio-printed gelatin-made hydrogels
2. Improve or rescue myogenic potential of CP myoblasts in vitro
Hypotheses:
1. In a 2D stiff environment, myoblasts from children with CP will show decreased myotubeformation and myogenic potential vs. TD
2. 3D culturing on softer substrate +/- matrix-producing fibroblasts (co-culture) would improve myotube formation in CP conditions.

CONCLUSIONS
1. Feasibility: Culturing myoblasts and producing myotubes
on 3D gelatin-based scaffolds is possible.
2. Substrate effect: Myogenic potential of CP myoblasts is
improved in 3D versus 2D cell cultures.
3. Cellular effect: Co-culturing CP myoblasts with TD
“fibroblasts” may improve myogenic potential of CP and TD
myoblasts on 3D-printed gelatin scaffolds, but not rescue
on gelatin-coated hard plastic 2D substrate.

ONGOING RESEARCH AND CLINICAL APPLICATIONS
Ongoing Research:• Optimize scaffold stiffness (5-40 kPa)
• Optimize scaffold geometry
• Optimize cell composition (co-cultures)
Clinical Applications: To build an in vitro muscle tissue model for use as …
• As a tool for drug discovery
• As a therapeutic intervention for contractures: a transplantable stem cell-laden “patch” or scaffold, to improve outcomes of muscle-tendon lengthening and other orthopedic surgical procedures
