Abstract
Repairing cartilage defects using thermosensitive hydrogels is an attractive treatment strategy, but the poor mechanical properties and limited understanding of the interactions between hydrogels and cells limit their application. Methods: In this study, a thermosensitive hydroxypropyl chitin hydrogel (HPCH) was functionalized with methacrylate groups to synthesize photocrosslinkable glycidyl methacrylate-modified HPCH (GM-HPCH). GM-HPCH could form a gel in situ through a thermosensitive sol-gel transition and its mechanical properties can be improved by UV irradiation. Cell viability, cell adhesion and anti-apoptosis activity of GM-HPCH were evaluated. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1) was introduced into the GM-HPCH hydrogel to fabricate the composite hydrogel. The macrophage immunomodulation, MSC recruitment and chondrogenesis of the composite hydrogel were evaluated. Results: With high biocompatibility, GM-HPCH could protect chondrocytes from apoptosis. Both the in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that GM-HPCH + TGFβ1 shifted the recruited macrophages from M1 to M2 and promoted chondrogenic gene expression. Additionally, the composite hydrogel could promote the migration of marrow stromal cells (MSCs) in the Transwell test and increase migrated gene expression. The fluorescent tracking of MSCs confirmed MSC homing in the rat chondral defect with the help of GM-HPCH. The macroscopic evaluation and histological results at 6 weeks and 12 weeks postsurgery showed that GM-HPCH + TGFβ1 can achieve superior cartilage healing. Conclusions: The GM-HPCH + TGFβ1 hydrogel effectively promoted cartilage repair via immunomodulating macrophages, recruiting MSCs and promoting chondrogenesis; thus it is a promising injectable hydrogel for cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is regarded as soft tissue-derived undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, of which the histogenesis remains to be proven. To investigate the cellular characteristics, a homotransplantable tumor line (KJ) was established from a spontaneous MFH that developed in the subcutis of an aged F344 rat. KJ tumors have been produced in syngeneic rats by serial subcutaneous implantation of tissue fragments. The original and KJ tumors consisted of oval and fusiform cells arranged in interlacing bundles with fibrous stroma. Occasional giant cells with bizarre nuclei were observed. Enzyme/immunohistochemically, neoplastic cells reacted to ED1 and ED2 (antibodies specific for rat histiocytes/macrophages), and showed a positive reaction to vimentin and lysosomal enzyme markers such as acid phosphatase (ACP) and nonspecific esterase (Non-SE). Electron microscopically, neoplastic cells possessed lysosomal granules in cytoplasm. A cloned cell line (KJ-A) was isolated from a KJ tumor. KJ-A cells showed positive reactions to ED1, ED2, ACP, and Non-SE, and had cytoplasmic lysosomal granules. Tumors induced by KJ-A cells exhibited histologic and enzyme/immunohistochemical findings similar to those of KJ tumors. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment increased the number of ED1-positive cells and the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Collectively, it is likely that rat MFH cells originally possess histiocyte/macrophage-like features that may be enhanced by LPS. Because tumor lines are useful for in vivo and in vitro studies concerning different characteristics of the original neoplasms. KJ and KJ-A should prove useful for studies concerning the morphogenesis of MFH.

Abstract
Osteal macrophages (OsteoMacs) are a special subtype of macrophage residing in bony tissues. Interesting findings from basic research have pointed to their vast and substantial roles in bone biology by demonstrating their key function in bone formation and remodeling. Despite these essential findings, much less information is available concerning their response to a variety of biomaterials used for bone regeneration with the majority of investigation primarily focused on their role during the foreign body reaction. With respect to biomaterials, it is well known that cells derived from the monocyte/macrophage lineage are one of the first cell types in contact with implanted biomaterials. Here they demonstrate extremely plastic phenotypes with the ability to differentiate towards classical M1 or M2 macrophages, or subsequently fuse into osteoclasts or multinucleated giant cells (MNGCs). These MNGCs have previously been characterized as foreign body giant cells and associated with biomaterial rejection, however more recently their phenotypes have been implicated with wound healing and tissue regeneration by studies demonstrating their expression of key M2 markers around biomaterials. With such contrasting hypotheses, it becomes essential to better understand their roles to improve the development of osteo-compatible and osteo-promotive biomaterials. This review article expresses the necessity to further study OsteoMacs and MNGCs to understand their function in bone biomaterial tissue integration including dental/orthopedic implants and bone grafting materials.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate ceramic materials are extensively used for bone replacement and regeneration in orthopedic, dental, and maxillofacial surgical applications. In order for these biomaterials to work effectively it is imperative that they undergo the process of degradation and resorption in vivo. This allows for the space to be created for the new bone tissue to form and infiltrate within the implanted graft material. Several factors affect the biodegradation and resorption of calcium phosphate materials after implantation. Various cell types are involved in the degradation process by phagocytic mechanisms (monocytes/macrophages, fibroblasts, osteoblasts) or via an acidic mechanism to reduce the micro-environmental pH which results in demineralization of the cement matrix and resorption via osteoclasts. These cells exert their degradation effects directly or indirectly through the cytokine growth factor secretion and their sensitivity and response to these biomolecules. This article discusses the mechanisms of calcium phosphate material degradation in vivo.

Abstract
It remains unclear whether monocyte infiltration plays a protective or detrimental role in neurodegenerative disease. The present study characterizes the inflammatory status of primary monocytes in a novel in vitro perfusion model. Monocytes under perfusion do not undergo elevated cell death. However, perfusion does lead to altered morphology, which can be counteracted by anti-inflammatory drugs. Functional studies indicate that cytokine levels are significantly reduced in perfusion compared to stationary conditions and enhanced with brain slices or capillary endothelial cells. Understanding monocyte properties could lead to refined treatment and new ways to interfere with inflammation in diseased brains.

Abstract
Metal implants and polymeric devices for the application in the clinical treatment of orthopedic tissue injuries are increasingly coated with bioactive biomaterials derived from natural substances to induce desirable biological effects. Many metals and polymers used in biomaterials research show high affinity for endotoxins, which are abundant in the environment. Endotoxin contamination is indicated in the pathology of periodontitis and aseptic implant loosening, but may also affect the evaluation of a biomaterial's bioactivity by inducing strong inflammatory reactions. In this review, we discuss the high affinity of three commonly used implant biomaterials for endotoxins and how the contamination can affect the outcome of the orthopedic fixation. The chemical nature of bacterial endotoxins and some of the clinical health implications are described, as this knowledge is critically important to tackle the issues associated with the measurement and removal of endotoxins from medical devices. Commonly used methods for endotoxin testing and removal from natural substances are examined and the lack of standard guidelines for the in vitro evaluation of biomaterials is discussed.

Abstract
Background Periodontitis is prevalent in older humans. Limiting the inflammation associated with periodontitis may provide a therapy for this condition, because Gram-negative bacteria expressing lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have a key role in initiation of inflammation by activating macrophage functions. Because oxidized galectin-1 regulates macrophage functions in other systems, we sought to establish whether this galectin-1 mRNA is expressed in the oral cavity, and whether it could dampen LPS-induced macrophage activation in vitro. Methods Using the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), we measured galectin-1 mRNA expression to clarify its localization to rat gingival tissues and studied the effect of Porphyromonas gingivalis challenge on galectin-1 expression. Next, we tested the effects of adding oxidized galectin-1 to cultured LPS-activated peritoneal macrophages on mRNA expression of proinflammatory factors by RT-PCR and real-time RT-PCR. Results We established that galectin-1 mRNA is expressed in gingival tissues and also showed that galectin-1 mRNA was significantly increased by challenge with P. gingivalis, indicating that galectin-1 may regulate oral inflammation. On the other hand, LPS 100 ng/mL in serum-containing medium induced macrophages to upregulate mRNA associated with a proinflammatory response, ie, interleukins 1β and 6, and inducible nitric oxide synthase. We showed that application of 0.1–10 ng/mL of oxidized galectin-1 to LPS-treated macrophages reduced the intense LPS- induced increase by serum in proinflammatory mRNA expression in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, application of oxidized galectin-1 10 ng/mL to LPS-treated macrophages in serum-free medium also showed a similar effect on LPS activity. Conclusion Oxidized galectin-1 restricts the proinflammatory actions of LPS, and this protein could limit the negative effects of inflammation.

Abstract
This in vitro study characterized the temporal cytokine expression profile from human monocytes exposed to phagocytosable Ti particles (0.78+/-0.12 microm) and to Ti discs of comparable surface roughness. Human THP-1 monocytes were cultured in six well tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) plates. Each well was either bare, contained Ti particles (the particles were clearly engulfed by the monocytes), or contained a Ti disc. Half of the wells were treated with 1 microg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS), while the other half were left unstimulated. Unstimulated and LPS-stimulated cells in bare wells were the negative and positive controls, respectively. Supernatant was sampled from each well at 1, 6, 24, 48, and 72 h and assayed for the expression of nine different cytokines using a Luminex system. Three cytokines (IL-1beta, GM-CSF and IL-13) gave little to no response under all conditions, while six cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-6, MIP-1alpha, MCP-1, VEGF, and IL-1ra) were clearly detectable. Expression levels generally increased with culture time, particle concentration, and LPS stimulation. Most significantly, it was found that cells treated by Ti discs produced in many instances a higher cytokine expression than did particles.

Abstract
Investigations on the ceramic degradation caused by osteoclasts are designed to assess osteoclast-ceramic interactions and to determine which ceramics are more suitable for use as bone substitute. This study investigated the resorptive activity of osteoclasts on ceramics presenting different solubility rates. Osteoclasts isolated from new-born rat and from human giant cell tumour were cultured on different bioceramics: hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and calcium carbonate (calcite). Cytoskeletal was revealed by actin labelling and ceramic surfaces were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). On all materials, the distribution of actin in typical ring was revealed. SEM examinations showed a clear difference in the shape and the depth of resorption lacunae on different ceramics. On pure HA, a superficial attack, clearly visible but very little extended. Numerous resorption lacunae, deep and well-delimited were observed on pure beta-TCP, but attacks less punctually were detected too. On pure calcite, an attack with form of spikes, very widespread but superficial was revealed. Degradation measurements revealed a significant increase of P release from the phosphocalcic ceramics and of Ca from all ceramics in the presence of osteoclasts. The both cell models found these characteristics, the rat osteoclasts were also an excellent model to study the ceramic resorption.

Abstract
The search for heparin-like materials remains an intensive field of research. In this context, we studied the immunomodulatory properties of semisynthetic dextran derivatives and naturally occurring sulfated polysaccharides present in brown seaweed (fucans). In this study, we investigated the functional potencies of fucan and dextran derivatives by analyzing their effects on the release of proinflammatory cytokines by resting or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human monocytes and their interactions on monocyte surfaces. The results showed that fucan, dextran derivatives, and heparin differentially (1) triggered interleukin-1alpha, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 production by monocytes in a dose-dependent manner, (2) modulated cytokine production by LPS-stimulated monocytes, and (3) specifically inhibited the binding of biotinylated LPS to monocyte membranes. Taken together, these data indicated that fucan and dextran derivatives displayed interesting immunomodulatory effects on human blood cells that could be relevant as new drugs or biomaterial coatings. Indeed, such polysaccharides, by regulating monocyte activation, could contribute to the improved biocompatibility of implants.

Abstract
With future exploration of macrophage properties in mind, we established a novel cell line (HS-P) from a transplantable histiocytic sarcoma, derived originally from a tumour in an aged F344 rat. HS-P was subjected to 70 serial passages, in which the mean doubling time was 15.7 h. The cells, which were round, oval or polygonal in shape, were arranged in a compact sheet. They reacted to varying degrees for lysosomal enzymes (acid phosphatase and non-specific esterase) and with the following antibodies: ED1/ED2 (rat macrophage/histiocyte-specific), OX6 (rat MHC class II-specific), lysozyme antibody and alpha1-antichymotrypsin antibody. Electron microscopically, HS-P cells showed lysosomes and prominent cell projections. These findings indicated that the cultured cells were macrophage-like. Syngeneic rats inoculated subcutaneously or intraperitoneally with HS-P cells invariably developed sarcomatous tumours consisting of monomorphic mononuclear cells, which exhibited cytochemical properties similar to those of cultured HS-P cells. Bioassay and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction methods revealed that tumour necrosis factor-alpha increased on addition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), indicating that HS-P cells remained LPS-responsive. HS-P cells may prove to be a useful tool for in-vitro studies of macrophage function.

Abstract
The stability of thermally processed hydroxyapatite coatings for oral and orthopedic bioprostheses has been questioned. Information on the chemical changes, which occur with hydroxyapatite biomaterials post-implantation in humans, is lacking. The purpose of this investigation was to begin to examine post-implantation surface changes of hydroxyapatite-coated implants using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray microanalysis (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and x-ray diffraction (XRD). Three retrieved dental implant specimens from humans following clinical failure due to peri-implantitis were examined. Unimplanted cylinders served as controls. Clinically, the retrieved specimens were all enveloped by a fibrous tissue capsule with bone present at the apical extent of the implant. SEM analysis showed that the retrieved surfaces were coated with both calcified and proteinaceous deposits. EDAX scans of the retrieved specimens demonstrated evidence of hydroxyapatite coating loss reflected by increasing titanium and aluminum signals. Other foreign ions such as sodium, chloride, sulfur, silica, and magnesium were detected. XRD of the control specimens showed that the samples were predominantly apatite; however, two peaks were detected in the diffraction pattern, which are not characteristic of hydroxyapatite, indicating that small amounts of one or more other crystalline phases were also present. The retrieved specimens showed slightly larger average crystal size relative to the control sample material, and the non-apatite lines were not present. FTIR evaluation of the retrieved specimens revealed the incorporation of carbonate and organic matrix on or into the hydroxyapatite. Narrowing of and increased detail in the phosphate peaks indicated an increase in average crystal size and/or perfection relative to the controls, as did the XRD results. Based on these results, we conclude that chemical changes may occur within the coating, with the incorporation of carbonate and concomitant reduction in hydroxyapatite coating thickness. Thermodynamic dissolution-reprecipitation of the coating itself and subsequent surface insult by bacterial and local inflammatory components may be involved with these changes.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate ceramics (CaP) have recently been proposed as a potential matrix for a bioactive drug delivery system (DDS) in which the effect in situ of a released therapeutic agent is favored by the biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, and bioresorption of the ceramic material. Polymyxin B (PMB) is a polypeptidic antibiotic which undergoes thermodamage above 60 degrees C. The dynamic compaction method was developed to consolidate the drug load on CaP powder without external heating. Two projectile velocities (50 and 25 m/s) were used here to achieve powder consolidation. Among the different techniques used to associate therapeutic agents with CaP, wet adsorption was performed before the dynamic compaction process. The PMB release profile was measured by a capillary electrophoresis technique, CaP crystallography was studied by x-ray diffraction, and CaP physicochemical analysis was performed by infrared spectroscopy. The biological activities of PMB-loaded compacted CaP were determined by the effect of the antibiotic and monocyte/macrophage degradation on compact surfaces. PMB release began after 2-3 days of incubation for blocks compacted at 25 m/s velocity and on day 5 for those compacted at 50 m/s velocity. A discrepancy was noted between the amounts of PMB released (0.5-2.1 mg) and the amounts initially compacted (2-8 mg) with CaP powder. The biological activities (antibacterial activity and inhibited lipopolysaccharide effects on monocyte/macrophage CaP degradation) of PMB released from compacted calcium-deficient apatite were unaltered. Thus, dynamic compaction allows PMB to be used with CaP ceramics without any loss in its integrity and biological effects.

Abstract
Silk fibroin membranes recently have been suggested as matrices for biomedical applications, such as guided tissue regeneration and burn wound dressings. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inflammatory potential of fibroin films and to compare the fibroin films with two model materials with completely different physico-chemical properties: poly(styrene) and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate). Fibroin bound lower levels of fibrinogen than did the two synthetic polymers while the same amounts of adsorbed human plasma complement fragment C3 and IgG were detected. Studies of the binding strength of C3 to fibroin, evaluated by a novel experimental procedure, indicated the occurrence of strong hydrophobic interactions at the interface. The activation of the mononuclear cells by fibroin, measured as interleukin 1beta production, was lower than the reference materials. Adhesion experiments showed the ability of the macrophages to adhere to fibroin by filopodia without a complete spreading of the cells. The results achieved in this study demonstrate that the interactions of fibroin with the humoral components of the inflammatory system were comparable with those of the two model surfaces while the degree of activation and adhesion of the immunocompetent cells appeared more limited.

Abstract
This study investigates the adhesion, cytoskeletal changes, and resorptive activity of disaggregated rat osteoclasts cultured on polished slices of three biomaterials: crystalline synthetic hydroxyapatite (HA), carbonated hydroxyapatite (C-HA), and natural calcium carbonate (C). The surface chemistry of each substrate was defined by X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy, surface wettability by the dispersive, and the polar components of the surface energies. Osteoclast adhesion was modulated by the polar component of the surface energy: fewer (p < 0.01) osteoclasts adhered to C-HA (97 +/- 20/slice, surface energy 9 +/- 5 mJ/m2) than to HA (234 +/- 16/slice, surface energy 44 +/- 2 mJ/m2) or to C (268 +/- 37/slice, surface energy 58 +/- 0.5 mJ/m2). Actin rings, which are the cytoskeletal structure essential for resorption, developed on all three materials. The area of the actin ring, which is resorbed by local acidification, and the osteoclast area, which reflects osteoclast spreading, were both greater in osteoclasts cultured on HA and C-HA than in those cultured on C. C was resorbed, but HA and C-HA were not. Thus, the surface energy plays an essential role in osteoclast adhesion, whereas osteoclast spreading may depend on the surface chemistry, especially on protein adsorption and/or on newly formed apatite layers. Resorption may be limited to the solubility of the biomaterial.

Abstract
We have investigated the applicability of a simple and inexpensive osteoclastic assay system using bone-like apatite-coated polyethyleneterephthalate (PET) disks. A 1 microm thick apatite layer, uniform and homogeneous bone-mineral-like with no organic components, was made on PET disks using a biomimetic process. As substrates for an osteoclastic assay, these coated disks were compared with dentine as well as with bone-like or heat-treated apatite of various thicknesses on apatite- and wollastonite-containing glass ceramic (A-W GC) disks. The unfractionated bone cells, including osteoclasts, of a neonatal rabbit were seeded onto these substrates. By scanning electron microscopic examination, the resorption lacunae of the thick bone-like apatite clearly showed track-like shapes at various depths, similar to those of dentine although the border between the A-W GC and the apatite was unclear. In contrast, those of heat-treated apatite showed small and shallow shapes with irregular margins, quite different from those of dentine. By reducing the thickness of bone-like apatite to 1 microm as well as using PET as its substrate, the margins of the resorption lacunae became quite clear, and with the use of phase-contrast microscopy during culture, osteoclasts and resorption pits could be precisely observed. The resorbed area, easily measured with the aid of bright-field microscopy and an image analyzer, was found to have increased in a time-dependent manner and at the end of 4 days of culture was not statistically different from that of dentine.

Abstract
Numerous cell types, such as monocytes and osteoclasts, are involved in calcified matrix degradation. In this context, calcium-phosphate ceramics present similar degradation processes in vivo and in vitro to those found in a natural calcified substrate. As the monocyte/macrophage lineage is among the first cells to appear in ceramic implantation sites, it is a key protagonist in inflammatory reaction and biodegradation mechanisms. This study investigated the ability of human monocytes/macrophages activated by various agents [lipopolysaccharides (LPS), polymyxin B (PMB)] to degrade biphasic calcium-phosphate ceramics. PMB sulfate is a bacteriostatic antibiotic that modulates LPS-induced cell activities in vivo and in vitro. Degradation pits (about 10 microns) produced on the pellet surface by these monocytes were discrete, with well defined margins. LPS increased the degradation of calcium-phosphate ceramic (number of lacunae, mean pellet surface area degraded) in a dose-dependent manner whereas polymyxin B downmodulated it significantly. The addition of 2 micrograms/mL of polymyxin B reduced the number of degradation lacunae and the extent of degraded surface area induced by 0.1 microgram/mL LPS by 87% and 64%, respectively. Thus this cell culture system can be very useful in the study of cellular degradation of biomaterials and of the influence of therapeutic agents that may modulate these cell activities.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of human growth hormone (hGH) on the monocyte/macrophage lineage, the first cell population involved in degradation of calcium phosphate ceramic after in vivo implantation. Monocytes isolated from human blood were cultured on biphasic calcium pellets (200 mg) for 8 days in the presence of lipopolysaccharides (LPS, 0.5 microgram/mL), hGH (10 and 50 ng/mL), or an association of LPS with hGH (10 and 50 ng/mL). Unlike LPS, hGH significantly decreased (about 25%) the total number of lacunae formed by monocytes. However, hGH induced the formation of lacunae with a greater surface area (about a 90% increase) as compared to the control. Finally, intense upmodulation (about a 250% increase) of lacuna surface area was observed in the presence of both soluble factors, suggesting that hGH and LPS act synergistically. In view of the development of a drug delivery system for hGH bone release, this study shows that hGH not only stimulates bone cells implicated in the synthesis of the extracellular matrix but also those involved in the early degradation of calcium phosphate biomaterial.
