Abstract
In artificial joint replacement, osteoclast bone resorption induced by wear debris of the implant is a main reason for aseptic loosening. To extend the life of the prosthesis, detailed mechanisms of aseptic loosening and the ways to prevent it should be explored. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro effect of icariine on the bone resorption of osteoclasts induced by titanium particles. Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of NF-kB ligand (RANKL) were used to generate osteoclasts from RAW264.7 precursors. The proliferation of RAW264.7 precursors in the presence of different doses of icariine was evaluated by MTT assay. The cells were treated with titanium particles, titanium particles with icariine and culture medium only (control), respectively. At 48 h after treatment, the expression level of receptor activator of NF-kB (RANK) was detected by ELISA, and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) and Cathepsin K (CtsK) were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Western blot was applied to analyze the expression levels of TRAP, RANK and CtsK. In addition, bone chips were cultured in the above conditions, and Toluidine blue staining was then employed to calculate the number and area of resorption pits in the bone chips. After treatment with icariine, expression level of RANK was significantly decreased in the RAW264.7 cell that induced by titanium particle and its cultural medium, mRNA and protein levels of TRAP, CAII, MMP-9 and CtsK were reduced as well. In addition, the numbers of bone resorption pits and areas on bone slices were both reduced by icariine challenging. Icariine could inhibit bone resorption of osteoclast induced by titanium particle, and it might be used as a promising drug for treating of aseptic loosening.

Abstract
PURPOSE Wear of ceramic orthopedic devices generates nanoparticles in vivo that may present a different biological character from the monolithic ceramic from which they are formed. The current work investigated protein adsorption from human plasma on alumina nanoparticles and monolithic samples representative of both wear particles and the ceramic components as implanted. MATERIALS AND METHODS A physicochemical characterization of the particles and their dispersion state was carried out, and the protein adsorption profiles were analyzed using 1D SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry. RESULTS Significant differences in protein-binding profiles were identified where the nanoparticles selectively bound known transporter proteins rather than the more highly abundant serum proteins that were observed on the monoliths. CONCLUSIONS Proteins associated with opsonization of particles were seen to be present in the protein corona of the nanoparticles, which raises questions regarding the role of wear particles in periprosthetic tissue inflammation and aseptic loosening.

Abstract
Particle-induced osteolysis is a major issue, and it is most likely the result of enhanced osteoclast activation in the pathogenesis of various skeletal diseases. This study investigated whether the inhibitory effect that Polycan has on osteoclast differentiation can be used to treat osteolysis induced by titanium (Ti) particles. To this end, the effects of Polycan were examined in terms of the cytotoxicity, osteoclast differentiation, cytokine expression, and Ti-induced calvarial osteolysis. Polycan had no significant cytotoxic effects on bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) but instead increased BMM proliferation. High levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-12, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) were expressed in BMM cells in the presence of Polycan, suggesting that Polycan drives the differentiation of BMMs into M1 macrophages. Polycan significantly inhibited osteoclast differentiation induced by M-CSF and the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL). The expression levels of the osteoclast marker genes significantly decreased, and Polycan induced and maintained the expression of IL-12, which suppressed osteoclast differentiation. In contrast, the RANKL signaling pathway was not inhibited by Polycan. An in vivo calvarial osteolysis model revealed that Polycan significantly decreased the osteoclast numbers and suppressed osteolysis. Our results suggest that the natural compound Polycan is a good candidate for therapeutic intervention against enhanced osteoclast differentiation and Ti particle-induced osteolysis. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The objective of the Part II analysis was to evaluate animal and in vitro toxicology studies of CoCr particles with respect to their physicochemistry and dose relevance to metal-on-metal (MoM) implant patients as derived from Part I. In the various toxicology studies, physicochemical characteristics were infrequently considered and administered doses were orders of magnitude higher than what occurs in patients. Co was consistently shown to rapidly release from CoCr particles for distribution and elimination from the body. CoCr micron sized particles appear more biopersistent in vivo resulting in inflammatory responses that are not seen with similar mass concentrations of nanoparticles. We conclude, that in an attempt to obtain data for a complete risk assessment, future studies need to focus on physicochemical characteristics of nano and micron sized particles and on doses and dose metrics relevant to those generated in patients or in properly conducted hip simulator studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE The distribution and relationship of hydroxyapatite debris, nanometric organic and metal wear particles and metal ions on periimplant interface membranes following aseptic and septic arthroplastic loosening were investigated. METHODS Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray spectroscopic analysis were used to analyze debris and ion distribution. RESULTS Hydroxyapatite debris appeared with different morphology in a particular distribution among several membranes. These differences may reflect the occurrence of different friction forces taking place between prosthesis and bone interface in the several types of prostheses studied. Metal wear particles were detected in greater numbers in membranes from noncemented prostheses compared with those from cemented ones. In contrast, more organic particles were present in membrane from cemented prosthesis. No differences were observed between aseptic and septic membranes. CONCLUSION Our findings support the need to evaluate the occurrence of friction forces that periprosthetic bone debris production may induce to exacerbate cellular reactivity. Furthermore, cellular engulfment of debris and the high level of different ions released indicate the occurrence of a toxic environment that may induce failure of any reparative pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to their biocompatibility and bioactivity, dicalcium silicate (C2S) and hydroxyapatite (HA) are used as coating materials for prosthetic orthopedic and dental implants or as bone substitute materials to fill bone defects. However, prostheses and bone substitutes can release particles that trigger an immune response in the recipient. The immunological effects of C2S particles have not yet been studied. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the cytotoxic effects of C2S particles on primary human monocytes, a human monocyte cell line (THP-1) and an osteoblast-like cell line (MG-63). The proinflammatory effects of C2S particles on THP-1 were also detected. Moreover, the osteogenic effects of C2S and HA on MG-63 cells were investigated. METHODS Characterization of C2S and HA was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive analysis (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunner-Emmett-Teller (BET) measurements and laser diffraction. The cytotoxic effect of C2S on primary human monocytes as well as THP-1 and MG-63 cells was measured using Trypan blue assays, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assays and flow cytometry to detect apoptosis. THP-1 human monocytes with or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation were exposed to C2S and HA for 6 and 24h. Thereafter, the mRNA expression and protein concentrations of MMP-2, MMP-9, TIMP-2, TIMP-1 and TNF-α were evaluated using real-time PCR and ELISA, respectively. RANKL and OPG mRNA expression levels in MG-63 cells were examined using real-time PCR. RESULTS No significant cytotoxicity was recorded when cells were directly cultured with C2S/HA particles. After THP-1 cells were cultured with C2S/HA for 24h, MMP-2, MMP-9 and TNF-α expression increased, whereas TIMP-2 and TIMP-1 expression decreased. Compared with HA, C2S slightly increased MMP-9 expression and slightly decreased TIMP-1 expression. The MMP: TIMP ratio increased in the C2S and HA groups; however, HA significantly increased the MMP-9: TIMP-1 ratio compared with C2S. Compared with HA, C2S caused less TNF-α production. C2S/HA did not modify the expression of proinflammatory mediators in LPS-stimulated cells. Furthermore, C2S/HA significantly increased OPG expression and slightly increased RANKL expression in MG-63 cells. C2S and HA decreased the RANKL: OPG ratio. CONCLUSION Our in vitro data suggest that C2S is relatively safe when directly cultured with cells. In addition, C2S may exert proinflammatory effects; however, compared with HA, C2S had fewer proinflammatory effects on THP-1. C2S and HA did not alter the LPS-induced production of proinflammatory mediators and had similar osteogenic effects on MG-63 cells.

Abstract
Magnesium is currently under investigation as a prospective biodegradable implant material. Biodegradation of magnesium causes a release of magnesium, hydroxide ions and hydrogen gas but it can also lead to the formation of particulate debris. Implant-derived particles may have immunotoxic effects. To investigate the influence of magnesium-derived particles on the immune functions of primary macrophages, up to 500 μg/ml magnesium or magnesium corrosion particles were added to the cell culture medium. No major effects were observed on cell viability and on the release of the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α. In addition, the ability of macrophages to stimulate proliferation of allogenic lymphocytes in a mixed leukocyte reaction remained unaffected. When macrophages were incubated with magnesium particles and then infected with the apathogenic Mycobacterium smegmatis, infection-induced TNFα secretion from murine macrophages was inhibited but not from human macrophages. However, the bactericidal activity of either cell type was not influenced. In conclusion, magnesium-related particles did not restrict the immune function of macrophages, suggesting that magnesium implants and corrosion particles derived thereof are highly biocompatible and have a low inflammatory potential.

Abstract
All of the over 1 million total joint replacements implanted in the US each year are expected to eventually fail after 15–25 years of use, due to slow progressive subtle inflammation at the bone implant interface. This inflammatory disease state is caused by implant debris acting, primarily, on innate immune cells, that is, macrophages. This slow progressive pathological bone loss or “aseptic loosening” is a potentially life-threatening condition due to the serious complications in older people (>75 yrs) of total joint replacement revision surgery. In some people implant debris (particles and ions from metals) can influence the adaptive immune system as well, giving rise to the concept of metal sensitivity. However, a consensus of studies agrees that the dominant form of this response is due to innate reactivity by macrophages to implant debris where both danger (DAMP) and pathogen (PAMP) signalling elicit cytokine-based inflammatory responses. This paper discusses implant debris induced release of the cytokines and chemokines due to activation of the innate (and the adaptive) immune system and the subsequent formation of osteolysis. Different mechanisms of implant-debris reactivity related to the innate immune system are detailed, for example, danger signalling (e.g., IL-1β, IL-18, IL-33, etc.), toll-like receptor activation (e.g., IL-6, TNF-α, etc.), apoptosis (e.g., caspases 3–9), bone catabolism (e.g., TRAP5b), and hypoxia responses (Hif1-α). Cytokine-based clinical and basic science studies are in progress to provide diagnosis and therapeutic intervention strategies.

Abstract
Biologic reactivity to orthopedic implant debris mediates long-term clinical performance of total joint arthroplasty implants. However, the reasons that some facets of implant debris (e.g., particle size, shape, base material, etc.) are more pro-inflammatory remain controversial. This precludes accurate prediction and optimal design of modern total joint replacements. We hypothesized that debris particle size can influence adsorbed protein film composition and affect subsequent bioreactivity. We measured size-dependent proteinfilm adsorption, and adsorbed protein-film-dependent cytokine release using equal surface areas of different sized cobalt-chromium alloy (CoCr-alloy) particles and in vitro challenge of human macrophages (THP-1 and human primary). Smaller (5 μm diameter) versus larger (70 μm diameter) particles preferentially adsorbed more serum protein in general (p<0.03), where higher molecular weight serum proteins consistent with IgG were identified. Additionally, 5-μm CoCr-alloy particles pre-coated with different protein biofilms (IgG vs. albumin) resulted in a difference in cytokine expression in which albumin-coated particles induced more TNF-α release and IgG-coated particles induced more IL-1β release from human monocytes/macrophages. In these preliminary in vitro studies, we have demonstrated the capability of equal surface areas of different particle sizes to influence adsorbed protein composition and that adsorbed protein differences on identical particles can translate into complex differences in bioreactivity. Together, these findings suggest that adsorbed protein differences on different-sized particles of the same material may be a contributing mechanism by which certain particles induce different reactivities.

Abstract
Wear particles are phagocytosed by macrophages and other inflammatory cells,
resulting in cellular activation and release of proinflammatory factors, which
cause periprosthetic osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening, the most
common causes of total joint arthroplasty failure. During this pathological
process, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) plays an important role in
wear-particle-induced osteolysis. In this study, recombination adenovirus (Ad)
vectors carrying both target genes [TNF-α small interfering RNA (TNF-α-siRNA)
and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2)] were synthesized and transfected into
RAW264.7 macrophages and pro-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells, respectively. The
target gene BMP-2, expressed on pro-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells and silenced by
the TNF-α gene on cells, was treated with titanium (Ti) particles that were
assessed by real-time PCR and Western blot. We showed that recombinant
adenovirus (Ad-siTNFα-BMP-2) can induce osteoblast differentiation when treated
with conditioned medium (CM) containing RAW264.7 macrophages challenged with a
combination of Ti particles and Ad-siTNFα-BMP-2 (Ti-ad CM) assessed by alkaline
phosphatase activity. The receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand was
downregulated in pro-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells treated with Ti-ad CM in
comparison with conditioned medium of RAW264.7 macrophages challenged with Ti
particles (Ti CM). We suggest that Ad-siTNFα-BMP-2 induced osteoblast
differentiation and inhibited osteoclastogenesis on a cell model of a Ti
particle-induced inflammatory response, which may provide a novel approach for
the treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis.

Abstract
The generation of wear debris is an inevitable result of normal usage of joint replacements. Wear debris particles stimulate local and systemic biological reactions resulting in chronic inflammation, periprosthetic bone destruction, and eventually, implant loosening, and revision surgery. The latter may be indicated in up to 15% patients in the decade following the arthroplasty using conventional polyethylene. Macrophages play multiple roles in both inflammation and in maintaining tissue homeostasis. As sentinels of the innate immune system, they are central to the initiation of this inflammatory cascade, characterized by the release of proinflammatory and pro-osteoclastic factors. Similar to the response to pathogens, wear particles elicit a macrophage response, based on the unique properties of the cells belonging to this lineage, including sensing, chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and adaptive stimulation. The biological processes involved are complex, redundant, both local and systemic, and highly adaptive. Cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage are implicated in this phenomenon, ultimately resulting in differentiation and activation of bone resorbing osteoclasts. Simultaneously, other distinct macrophage populations inhibit inflammation and protect the bone-implant interface from osteolysis. Here, the current knowledge about the physiology of monocyte/macrophage lineage cells is reviewed. In addition, the pattern and consequences of their interaction with wear debris and the recent developments in this field are presented.

Abstract
An increasing number of studies have reported adverse tissue reactions around metal-on-metal (MM) hip implants. However, the origin and mechanisms of these reactions remain unclear. Moreover, the biological effects of nanometer-size chromium oxide particles, the predominant type of wear particles produced by MM implants, remain mostly unknown. The purpose of this study was to analyze the cytotoxic effects of clinically relevant nanometer-size chromium oxide particles on macrophage response in vitro. J774.A1 macrophages were cultured with either 60 nm or 700 nm commercially available Cr2 O3 particles at different concentrations. Two different particle sizes were analyzed to evaluate potential volume effects. Cell mortality was analyzed by light microscopy, flow cytometry (annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate and propidium iodide assay), and using a cell death detection enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1α) release was measured by ELISA, and gene expression was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR. Results showed that, at high concentrations, Cr2 O3 particles of both sizes can be cytotoxic, inducing significant decreases in total cell numbers and increases in necrosis. Results also suggested that these effects were dependent on particle volume. However, TNF-α, MCP-1, and MIP-1α cytokine release and gene expression remained low. Overall, this study demonstrates that nanometer-size particles of Cr2 O3 , a stable form of chromium oxide ceramic, have rather low cytotoxic effects on macrophages. Therefore, these particles may not be the main culprit in the initiation of the inflammatory reaction in MM periprosthetic tissues. However, other parameters (e.g., potential intracellular damage) remain to be investigated.

Abstract
Wear particles are phagocytosed by macrophages, resulting in cellular activation and the release of pro-inflammatory factors, which cause periprosthetic osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening, the most common causes of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) failure. During this pathological process, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α plays an important role in wear particle-induced osteolysis. Therefore, in this study, we used adenovirus-mediated small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting TNF-α to suppress the TNF-α release from activated macrophages in response to titanium particles. Our results showed that recombinant adenovirus (Ad-TNF-α-siRNA) suppressed the TNF-α release from activated macrophages in response to titanium particles, and reduced titanium particle-induced osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption in the presence of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL). In addition, the conditioned medium of macrophages challenged with titanium particles (Ti CM) stimulated osteoprogenitor RANKL expression. The conditioned medium of macrophages challenged with titanium particles and Ad-TNF-α-siRNA (Ti-Ad CM) reduced the mRNA expression in MC3T3-E1 cells compared to Ti CM. Based on these data, TNF-α strongly synergizes with RANKL to promote osteoclast differentiation. Furthermore, TNF-α promoted osteoclast differentiation by stimulating osteoprogenitor RANKL expression. Ad-TNF-α-siRNA effectively suppressed osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption following exposure to titanium particles in the presence of RANKL. In addition, recombinant adenovirus (Ad-TNF-α-siRNA) does not have a toxic effect on the murine macrophage cell line, RAW264.7. Consequently, it can be concluded that recombinant adenovirus-mediated siRNA targeting TNF-α (Ad-TNF-α-siRNA) may provide a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis.

Evidence for active antigen presentation by monocyte/macrophages in response to stimulation with particles: the expression of NFκB transcription factors and costimulatory molecules. Inflammopharmacology 2013; 21:279-90. [PMID: 23670535 DOI: 10.1007/s10787-013-0170-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2012] [Accepted: 03/28/2013] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The macrophage and lymphocyte response to wear debris contributes to the failure of some joint replacements. Costimulatory molecule expression by particle-containing macrophages is an evidence for antigen presentation. The NFκB transcription factors are regulators of costimulatory molecules and are present in tissue near failed joint prostheses. The tissue localisation of NFκB and the expression of these factors and costimulatory molecules by U937 cells stimulated with nano- and microparticles are reported, together with the effects of an NFκB inhibitor (sc514). MATERIALS AND METHODS The tissue localisation of RelA, RelB, c-rel, p50, p52 and NF-IL6 was examined by immunohistochemistry in samples from 15 patients with failure of metal against polyethylene total hip replacements. The expression of these NFκB factors by U937 cells stimulated with microparticles (CoCr, diamond) and nanoparticles (diamond) was examined by quantified RT-PCR. Lipopolysaccharide provided positive controls while negative controls had no additions to culture. Inhibition of NFκB activity by sc-514 was studied. The expression of costimulatory molecules (CD80, CD86 and HLA-DR) was evaluated in parallel cell culture studies by tricolour flow cytometry. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Immunohistochemistry of tissue showed the highest expression for NF-IL6 (32.56 ± 11.61 per cent), RelA (33.66 ± 9.98 per cent) and p52 (32.07 ± 12.90 per cent), then RelB (22.63 ± 7.49 per cent), c-rel (14.07 ± 6.72 per cent) and p50 (13.07 ± 5.99 per cent). NF-IL6 was localised to macrophages, RelB to RFD1+ dendritic cells. U937 cells showed an increased expression of all NFκB factors (p < 0.01) in response to CoCr and diamond microparticles. Only RelA and c-rel (p < 0.01) were increased by one diamond nanoparticle and p52 and c-rel (p < 0.01) by another nanoparticulate diamond. Inhibition by sc-514 of RelA, c-rel and p50 expression occurred with all four particles, p52 was decreased for all diamond particles (but not CoCr) and RelB was not inhibited with any of the particles. CD86 and HLA-DR expression were upregulated by microparticles (CoCr, diamond) (p ≪ 0.01) with lower levels (significant) of these molecules found with diamond nanoparticles. CD80 expression was much less than CD86 and HLA-DR. Costimulatory molecule expression in the bone-implant interface indicates antigen presentation by macrophages. Functional studies with U937 monocytes show the same molecules expressed on exposure to micro- and nanoparticles. Highest values occur with CoCr while the smallest diamond nanoparticles are the least stimulatory. NFκB expression gives an insight into the immunogenic potential of the different particles.

Abstract
Metal orthopedic implant debris-induced osteolysis of hip bone is a major problem in patients with prosthetic-hips. Although macrophages are the principal targets for implant-wear debris, the receptor(s) and mechanisms underlying these responses are not fully elucidated. We examined whether the TLR4 pathway mediates immune response to metal-on-metal (MoM) implant-generated wear particles. Human monocytes (THP-1) were exposed to Co-alloy particles at increasing particle:cell ratio for 24 h. Challenge with particles caused up-regulation of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-8, and mediated degradation of cytosolic I-κB and nuclear translocation of NF-κB. Blocking antibodies against TLR4 or gene silencing of MyD88 and IRAK-1 prevented particle-induced I-κB/NF-κB activation response and markedly inhibited IL-8 release. Particle-mediated IL-8 response was not observed in TLR4-negative HEK293T cells; whereas transfection-based TLR4-overexpression in HEK293T enabled particle-sensitivity, as observed by I-κB degradation and IL-8 expression in response to particles. Results demonstrate that Co-alloy particles trigger immune response via the TLR4-MyD88-dependent signaling pathway.

Abstract
We hypothesized that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in macrophages induced by wear particles was one of the reasons for particle-induced osteolysis (PIO) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) failure. In the present study, the expression of ER stress markers was examined by Western blot in macrophages treated with particles from materials used in prosthetics, specimens from PIO animal models and patients suffering from aseptic loosening. To address whether ER stress triggers these inflammatory responses, the effect of an ER stress blocker on the expression of inflammatory cytokines in particle-treated macrophages and PIO animal models was tested. The results demonstrated that ER stress markers were significantly upregulated in particle-treated macrophages, periosteum tissues from PIO animal models and clinical specimens of prosthesis loosening. Blocking ER stress with a specific inhibitor dramatically reduced the particle-induced expression of inflammatory cytokines in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, in PIO animal models, this ER stress blocker dramatically suppressed the differentiation of osteoclasts and reduced the severity of osteolysis. Thus, the results of the present study suggest that ER stress plays a key role in particle-induced osteolysis and that targeting the ER stress pathway may lead to novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of aseptic prosthesis loosening.

Abstract
Wear of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been recognized as the main cause for long-term revision in joint arthroplasty. A new approach to overcome this detrimental issue is here presented: zirconia (ZrO2) thin films were directly deposited onto the surface of UHMWPE by Pulsed Plasma Deposition (PPD) technique. The obtained films were structurally, morphologically and mechanically characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and nanoindentation tests, respectively. The critical fracture load was estimated by the analysis of the indenter footprints, while the adhesion degree was evaluated by a cross-cut tape test. Zirconia films exhibited a fully cubic structure, with densely packed grains, whereas mechanical tests showed that hard, tough and well-adherent films were deposited. These preliminary results suggested the feasibility of pursuing this alternative route to improve UHMPWE performances while preserving its well-established mechanical properties.

Abstract
Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis remains the principal cause of aseptic loosening of orthopaedic implants. Monocytes/macrophages phagocytose wear particles and release cytokines that induce inflammatory response. This response promotes osteoclast differentiation and osteolysis. The precise mechanisms by which wear particles are recognized and induce the accumulation of inflammatory cells in the periprosthetic tissue have not been fully elucidated. Recent studies have shown that toll-like receptors (TLRs) contribute to the cellular interaction with wear particles. Wear particles are recognized by monocytes/macrophages through TLRs coupled with the adaptor protein MyD88. After the initial interaction, wear particles induce both local and systemic migration of monocytes/macrophages to the periprosthetic region. The cellular migration is mediated through chemokines including interleukin-8, macrophage chemotactic protein-1, and macrophage inhibitory protein-1 in the periprosthetic tissues. Interfering with chemokine-receptor axis can inhibit cellular migration and inflammatory response. This paper highlights recent advances in TLR, and chemokine participated in the pathogenesis of aseptic loosening. A comprehensive understanding of the recognition and migration mechanism is critical to the development of measures that prevent wear particle-induced aseptic loosening of orthopaedic implants.

Abstract
Biomaterials are commonly applied in regenerative therapy and tissue engineering in bone, and have been substantially refined in recent years. Thereby, research approaches focus more and more on nanoparticles, which have great potential for a variety of applications. Generally, nanoparticles interact distinctively with bone cells and tissue, depending on their composition, size, and shape. Therefore, detailed analyses of nanoparticle effects on cellular functions have been performed to select the most suitable candidates for supporting bone regeneration. This review will highlight potential nanoparticle applications in bone, focusing on cell labeling as well as drug and gene delivery. Labeling, eg, of mesenchymal stem cells, which display exceptional regenerative potential, makes monitoring and evaluation of cell therapy approaches possible. By including bioactive molecules in nanoparticles, locally and temporally controlled support of tissue regeneration is feasible, eg, to directly influence osteoblast differentiation or excessive osteoclast behavior. In addition, the delivery of genetic material with nanoparticulate carriers offers the possibility of overcoming certain disadvantages of standard protein delivery approaches, such as aggregation in the bloodstream during systemic therapy. Moreover, nanoparticles are already clinically applied in cancer treatment. Thus, corresponding efforts could lead to new therapeutic strategies to improve bone regeneration or to treat bone disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to investigate early inflammatory response in the first 3 days after the implantation of hip prostheses, and to compare the early inflammation responses associated with the use of different combinations of bearing materials. METHODS 34 patients were enrolled, all of whom underwent unilateral total hip replacement and had identical hip prostheses, except for the bearing materials. These consisted of polyethylene on alumina (n = 8), polyethylene on CoCr (n = 11), or alumina on alumina (n = 15). Blood samples were collected preoperatively in the morning of the day of surgery, and at 6 h, 1 day, 2 days, and 3 days postoperatively. CK, CRP, and IL-6 in peripheral blood were measured. Pain score was obtained at 2 days after surgery. RESULTS There were no significant differences in the pre- and postoperative background variables among the groups. Pain scores of different groups were not significantly different either (P > 0.05). There were also no significant differences in the levels of CK, CRP, and IL-6 when patients with the three combinations of bearing materials were compared. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that varying the bearing materials used in the hip prosthesis did not influence the early inflammatory response after prosthesis implantation.

Abstract
Wear debris-induced osteolysis, a major contributing factor of orthopedic implant aseptic loosening, affects long-term survival of orthopedic prostheses following joint replacement and revision surgery. Pathogenic effects of wear debris on various cell types including macrophages/monocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts have been well studied. However, the interactions between wear debris particles and osteocytes, which make up over 90% of all bone cells, have not been clearly illustrated. Here, we explored the biological effects of endotoxin-free beta-tricalciumphosphate (β-TCP) wear particles with the average diameter of 1.997 μm (range 1.3-3.2 μm) on osteocytes in vitro. Our results showed that 24 h or 48 h incubation of β-TCP particles dose-dependently inhibited cell viability of osteocytes MLO-Y4. Alternatively, β-TCP particles treatment for 24 h significantly increased the osteocytic marker SOST/sclerostin mRNA expression and the release of inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α and IL-1β into the culture media, but decreased the mRNA expression of another osteocytic marker dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP-1). Furthermore, these osteocytes dysfunctions were accompanied by F-actin disassembly, cell apoptosis, sustained enhancement of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial injury upon β-TCP particles stimulation. In addition, β-TCP particles also caused Akt inactivation at Ser473 resides with a dose- and time-dependent pattern. Taken together, β-TCP wear particles could cause osteocytes dysfunctions, which may be mediated by apoptotic death and Akt inactivation in MLO-Y4 cells. These findings strongly suggest that osteocytes may play an important role in the β-TCP wear particles-induced osteolysis, and provide valuable insights for understanding the molecular mechanisms of osteocytes death involved in tissue damage during bone cement and intolerance of cemented prostheses.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Fixed-bearing total knee arthroplasty components can cause wear debris due to fretting micromotion between the polyethylene insert and the metal tibial tray, possibly leading to osteolysis and implant failure. This study compared the effects of either a highly polished cobalt-chrome (CoCr) or titanium tibial tray in patients receiving the PFC. Sigma® posterior stabilized knee system with a moderately cross-linked polyethylene insert. One hundred five patients with titanium tibial trays and 70 patients with CoCr tibial trays were prospectively enrolled at the time of follow-up of at least 4 years from surgery. There were two revisions with implant removal in each group. On blinded radiographic review, osteolysis was observed in three of 105 knees in the titanium group and three of 70 knees in the CoCr group. Radiolucent lines were categorized in accordance with the Knee Society roentgenographic evaluation system. In the titanium group 18% showed no radiolucent lines, 65% scored four or less (nonconcerning), and 17% scored between five and nine (requires observation for progression). In the CoCr group 24% showed no radiolucencies, 61% scored four or less, and 14% scored between five and nine. None of the knees in either group scored greater than 10 (possible or impending failure). Knee society scores and radiographic alignment were statistically similar between groups. These results suggest that there may not be a difference in clinical or radiographic mid-term outcome between titanium and CoCr tibial trays in total knee arthroplasty.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and inflammatory cytokines released from activated macrophages in response to particulate debris greatly impact periprosthetic bone loss and consequent implant failure. In the present study, we found that a major polyphenolic component of green tea, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), inhibited Ti particle-induced TNF-α release in macrophages in vitro and calvarial osteolysis in vivo. The Ti stimulation of macrophages released TNF-α in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and EGCG substantially suppressed Ti particle-induced TNF-α release. Analysis of signaling pathway showed that EGCG inhibited the Ti-induced c-Jun N-terminus kinase (JNK) activation and inhibitory κB (IκB) degradation, and consequently the Ti-induced transcriptional activation of AP-1 and NF-κB. In a mouse calvarial osteolysis model, EGCG inhibited Ti particle-induced osteolysis in vivo by suppressing TNF-a expression and osteoclast formation. Therefore, EGCG may be a potential candidate compound for osteolysis prevention and treatment as well as aseptic loosening after total replacement arthroplasty.

Abstract
There is convincing evidence that particles produced by the wear of joint prostheses are causal in the peri-prosthetic loss of bone, or osteolysis, which, if it progresses, leads to the phenomenon of aseptic loosening. It is important to fully understand the biology of this bone loss because it threatens prosthesis survival, and loosened implants can result in peri-prosthetic fracture, which is disastrous for the patient and presents a difficult surgical scenario. The focus of this review is the bioactivity of polyethylene (PE) particles, since there is evidence that these are major players in the development and progression of osteolysis around prostheses which use PE as the bearing surface. The review describes the biological consequences of interaction of PE particles with macrophages, osteoclasts and cells of the osteoblast lineage, including osteocytes. It explores the possible cellular mechanisms of action of PE and seeks to use the findings to date to propose potential non-surgical treatments for osteolysis. In particular, a non-surgical approach is likely to be applicable to implants containing newer, highly cross-linked PEs (HXLPEs), for which osteolysis seems to occur with much reduced PE wear compared with conventional PEs. The caveat here is that we know little as yet about the bioactivity of HXLPE particles and addressing this constitutes our next challenge.

Abstract
The immunotoxicity of implanted nanostructured titanium is a paramount issue for vascular, dental and orthopedic applications. However, it has been unclear whether implanted surface nanostructures can inhibit or aggrevate inflammatory responses. 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.

Abstract
Nanoscale surface modification of titanium dental implants with calcium phosphate (CaP) has been shown to achieve superior bone wound healing and osseointegration compared with smooth or microrough titanium surfaces alone. As bone healing has been shown to be influenced by the action of cytokines, this study examined whether changes in cytokine gene expression from RAW 264.7 cells cultured on commercially pure and titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) microrough or nanoscale crystalline CaP-modified surfaces, may influence downstream events in bone wound healing and osseointegration. Whilst no significant difference in the attachment or proliferation of RAW 264.7 cells was observed, the nanoscale CaP-modified surface elicited a gene expression profile with marked down-regulation of a number of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Inflammatory cytokine gene expression was further influenced by chemical composition, with lower levels of pro-inflammatory markers noted following exposure of the macrophage-like cells to titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) compared with the commercially pure titanium surface. Down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression (confirmed at the protein level for TNFα and CCL5), may thus facilitate the enhanced bone wound healing and osseointegration observed clinically with nanoscale calcium phosphate-modified implant surfaces.

Abstract
Bone loss around femoral implants used for THA is a persistent clinical concern. It may be caused by stress shielding, generally attributed to a mismatch in stiffness between the implants and host bone. In this regard, a fatigue resistant, carbon fiber (CF) composite femoral implant with bone-matching stiffness has been developed. This study evaluated the tissue response to the three material components of this implant in normal and textured (blasted with 24 grit alumina) surfaces: the hydroxyapatite (HA) coating, the CF composite and the intermediate crystalline HA particulate composite layer to bond to the HA coating (blended). Sprague-Dawley rats underwent bilateral femoral implantation each receiving two rod-like implants. Bone apposition to the HA (37%) and textured Ti (41%) implants was not significantly different. Bone apposition to the untextured CF (14%) and blended (19%) implants and polished Ti (8%) implants was significantly lower. Bone apposition to the textured CF (9%) and blended (11%) implants was lower (but not statistically from the as received or untextured counterparts). Nearly all sections from femurs containing CF implants presented CF debris. There was no evidence of localized bone loss or any strong immune response associated with any of the implant materials. All materials were well tolerated with minimal inflammation despite the presence of particulate debris. The high degree of bone apposition to the HA-coated composite implants and the lack of short-term inflammation and adverse tissue response to the three material implant component support continued evaluation of this composite technology for use in THA.

Abstract
The destruction of bone around joint replacements (periprosthetic osteolysis) is an adverse biological response associated with the generation of excessive wear particles. Wear debris from the materials used for joint replacements stimulate a chronic inflammatory and foreign body reaction that leads to increased osteoclast differentiation and maturation, and decreased bone formation. Wear debris induces both local and systemic trafficking of inflammatory cells to the site of particle generation. Recent studies have shown that this effect is mediated primarily by chemotactic cytokines (chemokines) including macrophage chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1, also known as CCL2), macrophage inhibitory protein-1 (MIP-1), Interleukin-8 (IL-8 or CXCL8) and others. These ligands migrate along a concentration gradient to interact with G-protein-linked transmembrane receptors on the cell surface. Chemokines are involved in the innate and adaptive immune responses, angiogenesis, wound healing and tissue repair. In vitro, in vivo and tissue retrieval studies have shown that chemokine-directed systemic trafficking of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage to wear particles result in the release of pro-inflammatory factors and subsequent bone loss. Modulation of the chemokine ligand-receptor axis is a potential strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of wear particles from joint replacements.

Abstract
Degradable magnesium alloys are new materials for implants used in orthopedic and trauma surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of degradable magnesium alloys on the function of dendritic cells (DC) as these cells represent the major antigen presenting cells of the body. MgP (pure magnesium), MgCa 0.6 (0.6% calcium), MgCa 0.8 (0.8% calcium), MgCa 1.0 (1% calcium), and MgCa 1.2 (1.2% calcium) alloys were degraded in cell culture medium. In parallel, murine bone marrow-derived DC were incubated with increasing concentrations (0.1—10 mmol/L) of magnesium chloride and calcium chloride, respectively. Incubation of DC with degradation media over 6 days had no influence on cell viability and only marginal influence on DC migration. Also, the production of TNFα and expression of CD86 was not enhanced by incubation with degraded magnesium alloys. The mixed leukocyte reaction revealed that there was also no increase of the T-cell proliferation in comparison to untreated controls. However, there was a trend toward macrophage development at the expense of DC expansion and an enhanced DC migration was induced by incubation with higher magnesium concentrations. Particularly the latter should be verified in in vivo experiments.

Proinflammatory and osteoclastogenic effects of beta-tricalciumphosphate and hydroxyapatite particles on human mononuclear cells in vitro. Biomaterials 2009; 30:5312-8.

Abstract
Particulate wear debris can activate defence cells and osteoclasts at the bone-implant interface possibly leading to bone resorption and implant failure. Cellular responses and inflammatory effects have been reported for particulate hydroxyapatite (HA). However, the immunological effects of particulate beta-tricalciumphosphate (beta-TCP) have not been studied and the question of whether beta-TCP is more biocompatible in this regard as is HA remains to be determined. Therefore the present work investigates effects of endotoxin-free HA and beta-TCP particles of the same size (d(50)=1 microm) and dose (SAR 10:1) on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro. The production of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, IL-8) and cytokines connected to osteoclast and dendritic cell differentiation (OPG, RANKL, M-CSF, GM-CSF) was determined by ELISA. After 6 and 18 h of incubation HA and beta-TCP caused a quite similar induction of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-8. Effects of particles on the production of M-CSF and OPG were not detectable. However, in sharp contrast to HA, beta-TCP caused less induction of GM-CSF and not any of RANKL, both known for promoting dendritic cells and osteoclastogenesis respectively. Therefore these in vitro data suggest that wear debris of beta-TCP poses lesser risk of the detrimental effects of osteoclast induction known from HA.

Abstract
Between 2002 and 2008, 130 consecutive ankles were replaced with an hydroxyapatite (HA) and titanium-HA-coated Ankle Evolutive System total ankle prosthesis. Plain radiographs were analysed by two independent observers. Osteolytic lesions were classified by their size and location, with cavities > 10 mm in diameter considered to be ‘marked’. CT scanning was undertaken in all patients with marked osteolysis seen on the plain radiographs. Osteolytic lesions were seen on the plain films in 48 (37%) and marked lesions in 27 (21%) ankles. The risk for osteolysis was found to be 3.1 (95% confidence interval 1.6 to 5.9) times higher with implants with Ti-HA porous coating. Care should be taken with ankle arthroplasty until more is known about the reasons for these severe osteolyses.

Abstract
Immune reactivity to soluble and particulate implant debris remains the primary cause of aseptic inflammation and implant loosening. However, the intracellular mechanisms that trigger immune cells to sense and respond to exogenous nonbiological agents such as metal particles or metal ions released from orthopedic implants remain unknown. Recent studies in immunology have outlined the importance of the intracellular inflammasome complex of proteins in sensing danger/stress signals triggered by nonbiological agents in the cytosol of macrophages. We hypothesized that metal implant debris can activate the inflammasome pathway in macrophages that causes caspase-1-induced cleavage of intracellular pro-IL-1beta into its mature form, resulting in IL-1beta secretion and induction of a broader proinflammatory response. We tested this hypothesis by examining whether soluble cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, and nickel ions and Co-Cr-Mo alloy particles induce inflammasome- mediated macrophage reactivity. Our results demonstrate that these agents stimulate IL-1beta secretion in human macrophages that is inflammasome mediated (i.e., NADPH-, caspase-1-, Nalp3-, and ASC-dependent). Thus, metal ion- and particle-induced activation of the inflammasome in human macrophages provides evidence of a novel pathway of implant debris-induced inflammation, where contact with implant debris is sensed and transduced by macrophages into a proinflammatory response.

Abstract
Extensive prolonged interactions of inflammatory cells (such as macrophages) at the host-implant interface may lead to implant failure. While previous studies have shown increased in vitro and in vivo bone cell adhesion, proliferation and mineralization on nanophase compared to currently implanted ceramics, few studies have been conducted to elucidate inflammatory cell responses on such nanophase ceramics. Controlling surface feature size and corresponding surface roughness on implants may clearly alter immune cell responses, which would be an extremely important consideration for the use of nanostructured materials as improved biomaterials. In this study, reduced macrophage density was observed on alumina (Al(2)O(3)) compacts with greater nanometer surface roughness accompanied by changes in crystallinity for up to 24 h in culture. Since alumina is a commonly used ceramic in orthopedic applications, this in vitro study continues to support the use of nanophase ceramics as improved orthopedic implants by demonstrating reduced macrophage responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) signaling in response to implant particulates may be critical in the pathogenesis of implant loosening after joint arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) in a murine model of inflammation induced by titanium (Ti) particulates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ti particulates were introduced into established air pouches on C57BL/6J mice. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with either high-dose PDTC (100 mg/kg) or low-dose PDTC (50 mg/kg). Mice without drug treatment, as well as mice injected with saline alone were included. Each group consisted of sixteen mice. The membranes and lavage fluid were harvested 2 d or 7 d after injection of particulate suspension for histological and molecular analysis. RESULTS Histologic analysis showed that PDTC reduced inflammatory responses in air pouches, that is, thinner membrane and decreased cellular infiltration. In addition, PDTC reduced the release of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in the lavage fluid or supernatant of homogenates as evaluated by ELISA. CONCLUSION These results suggest that PDTC inhibits Ti particulate-induced inflammatory responses in the murine model; thus it represents a promising therapeutic candidate for the prevention and treatment of implant loosening.

Abstract
New clinical and basic science data on the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which wear particles stimulate the host inflammatory response have provided deeper insight into the pathophysiology of periprosthetic bone loss. Interactions among wear particles, macrophages, osteoblasts, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and T cells contribute to the production of pro-inflammatory and pro-osteoclastogenic cytokines such as TNF-alpha, RANKL, M-SCF, PGE2, IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8. These cytokines not only promote osteoclastogenesis but interfere with osteogenesis led by osteoprogenitor cells. Recent studies indicate that genetic variations in TNF-alpha, IL-1, and FRZB can result in subtle changes in gene function, giving rise to altered susceptibility or severity for periprosthetic inflammation and bone loss. Continuing research on the biologic effects and mechanisms of action of wear particles will provide a rational basis for the development of novel and effective ways of diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of periprosthetic inflammatory bone loss.
