- The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possibility to modulate the early inflammatory response in vitro by coating titanium surfaces with candidate proinflammatory (fibrinogen coated turned titanium "Fib") and antiinflammatory proteins (catalase on top of fibrinogen coated turned titanium "Cat"). Additionally, turned titanium surfaces (Ti) were used as controls. The discs were incubated with human mononuclear cells. Adhered cells were investigated with respect to number, viability, differentiation (acute marker 27E10 vs. chronic marker RM3/1), and cytokine production (TNF-alpha and IL-10), after 24 and 72 h. The results indicated that it is possible to modulate the inflammatory response with protein coatings. However, the strongest inflammatory response, indicated by increased number of adhered cells and release of pro and antiinflammatory mediators, was induced by Cat. Furthermore, the cytokine production on this surface was not sensitive to LPS stimulation. Differentiation measured as the expression of the chronic cell surface marker, dominated after 72 h for all surface modifications and Cat displayed an increased number compared to the others. A decrease in the total number of adhered cells and amounts of TNF-alpha were observed on all surfaces over time. The cell viability was, in general, high for all tested surfaces. In conclusion, the study proved it possible to influence the early inflammatory response in vitro by immobilizing protein coatings to titanium surfaces. However, the catalase surface demonstrated the strongest inflammatory response, and the possibility to selectively use the potent antiinflammatory capacity of catalase needs to be further evaluated.

- Background: The current hard tissue implants research aims to accelerate bone healing by designing surfaces that are bioactive. However, the role of the inflammatory response to these surfaces is so far incompletely described. Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate early inflammatory response in vitro to a potentially bioactive surface—an anodized surface with Mg ions incorporated (anodized/Mg)—and to compare it to a turned, a blasted, and an anodized surface. Materials and Methods: An interferometer was used for topographical characterizations. The disks were incubated with human mononuclear cells. Adherent cells were investigated with respect to number of cells, viability, differentiation, and cytokine production with and without lipopolysaccharide stimulation after 24 and 72 hours. Results: The number of adhered mononuclear cells differed significantly between the different modified surfaces, with the highest number on the anodized surface. However, there were no significant differences in cytokine production and differentiation between the different modified surfaces. The amount of anti-inflammatory mediator interleukin-10 remained over time, while the number of cells and pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α decreased. The cells were viable on all surfaces, respectively. Conclusion: The anodized surfaces with and without Mg ions showed an increased cell adherence, however, otherwise an inflammatory response similar to the turned and blasted surfaces. Furthermore, the potentially bioactive anodized/Mg surface showed a similar response to the TiUnite-like anodized surface despite the former having a surface roughness of a smoother character.

- The early biological response at titanium (Ti), copper (Cu)-coated Ti and sham sites was evaluated in an in vivo rat model. Material surface chemical and topographical properties were characterized using Auger electron spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and interferometry, respectively. The number of leukocytes, cell types and cell viability (release of lactate dehydrogenase) were determined in the implant-interface exudate. The contents of activated nuclear transcription factor NF-kappaB, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. An increase in the number of leukocytes, in particular, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, was observed between 12 and 48 h around Cu. A marked decrease of exudate cell viability was found around Cu after 48 h. The total amounts of activated NF-kappaB after 12 h was highest in Ti exudates whereas after 48 h the highest amount of NF-kappaB was detected around Cu. The levels of cytokine IL-6 were consistently high around Cu at both time periods. No differences in IL-10 contents were detected, irrespective of material/sham and time. The results show that materials with different toxicity grades (titanium with low and copper with high toxicity) exhibit early differences in the activation of NF-kappaB, extracellular expression and secretion of mediators, causing major differences in inflammatory cell accumulation and death in vivo.
