Research Dynamics of Tissue Spheroids as Building Blocks: A Scientometric Analysis

Resumen

Tissue spheroids represent an innovative solution for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. They constitute an in vitro three-dimensional cell culture model capable of mimicking the complex composition of a native tissue on a microscale; this model can function as a building block and be assembled into larger tissue constructs. Due to the potential tissue spheroids have for the evolution of the health industry, there is a need to assess the research dynamics of this field. Thus far, there have been no studies on their use as building blocks. To fill this gap, a study was performed to characterize the evolution of research where tissue spheroids were used as building blocks to generate tissue constructs. A scientometric analysis of the literature regarding tissue spheroid technologies was developed by quantification of bibliometric performance indicators. For this purpose, articles published during the period January 1, 2015 – December 31, 2021, from the Scopus database were organized and analyzed. The main subject areas, countries, cities, journals, institutions, and top-cited articles as well as the types of techniques, cells, culture time, and principal applications were identified. This research supports the definition and growth of research and development strategies for new technologies such as tissue spheroids.
