            Figure 3. Influence of 3D bioprinted MB@UiO-66(Ce)/PH on the behavior of L929 cells in vitro. (A) The adhesion of L929 cells cultured on the PH-0,
            PH-0.1, PH-0.5, and PH-1 hydrogels after 12 h. Scale bar: 100 μm. (B) Quantitative analysis of the proliferation of L929 cells cultured with hydrogels by
            CCK-8. Data are means ± SD; n = 3. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. (C) In vitro live/dead assay of L929 cells cultured on MB@UiO-66(Ce)/PH, live cells (green), and
            dead cells (red). Scale bar: 250 μm.
