Paper-based scaffolds support the three-dimensional culture of mammalian cells in tissue-like environments. These Tissue Papers, a name that highlights the use of materials obtained from (plant) tissue to generate newly functioning (human) tissue structures, are a promising analytical tool to quantify cellular responses in physiologically relevant extracellular gradients and coculture architectures. Here, we highlight current examples of Tissue Papers, commonly used methods of analysis, and current measurement challenges.
