Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The immunotoxicity of implanted nanostructured titanium is a paramount issue for vascular, dental and orthopedic applications. However, it has hitherto been unclear whether implanted surface nanostructures can inhibit inflammatory response. Herein, macrophage activation, as evidence of migration, on transparent flat and nanostructured titanium correlated with pro-inflammatory protein synthesis and cytokine release. Through the real-time monitoring of initial cytoskeleton variations, this study identified that macrophage movement was restricted on nanostructured titanium compared to flat titanium surfaces. Furthermore, nanostructured titanium elicited secretion of fewer pro-inflammatory enzyme molecules and cytokines, as well as reduced nitric oxide production. All results collectively indicated that initial macrophage activation can be mitigated by nanoscale surface topography alone, without modification of surface chemistry or stiffness.
