Abstract
Bioactivity, structural integrity and tribological behaviour of biodegradable orthopaedic fracture fixing accessories considerably impact their actual performance in the body environment. Immune system in the living body quickly responds to the wear debris as foreign material and begins a complex inflammatory response. Magnesium (Mg) based biodegradable implants are widely studied for temporary orthopaedic applications, due to their similar elastic modulus and density to natural bones. However, Mg is highly vulnerable to corrosion and tribological damage in actual service conditions. To address these challenges via a combined approach, the Mg-3 wt% Zinc (Zn)/x hydroxyapatite (HA, x = 0, 5 and 15 wt%) based composites (fabricated via spark plasma sintering route) are evaluated in terms of biotribocorrosion and in-vivo biodegradation and osteocompatibility behaviour in an avian model. The addition of 15 wt% HA in the Mg-3Zn matrix has significantly enhanced the wear and corrosion resistance in the physiological environment. X-ray radiograph analysis of the Mg-HA-based intramedullary inserts implanted in the humerus bone of birds showed consistent progression of degradation and positive tissue response up to 18 weeks. The 15 wt% HA reinforced composites have shown better bone regeneration properties than other inserts. This study provides new insights into developing next-generation Mg-HA-based biodegradable composites for temporary orthopaedic implants, with excellent biotribocorrosion behaviour.

Abstract
Surface topography and chemistry have significant influences on the biological performance of biomedical implants. Our aim is to produce an implant surface with favorable biological properties by dual modification of surface chemistry and topography in one single simple process. In this study, because of its chemical stability, excellent corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility, titanium oxide (TiO2) was chosen to coat the biomedical Ti alloy implants. Biocompatible elements (niobium (Nb) and silicon (Si)) were introduced into TiO2 matrix to change the surface chemical composition and tailor the thermophysical properties, which in turn leads to the generation of topographical features under specific thermal history of plasma spraying. Results demonstrated that introduction of Nb2O5 resulted in the formation of Ti0.95Nb0.95O4 solid solution and led to the generation of nanoplate network structures on the composite coating surface. By contrast, the addition of SiO2 resulted in a hairy nanostructure and coexistence of rutile and quartz phases in the coating. Additionally, the introduction of Nb2O5 enhanced the corrosion resistance of TiO2 coating, whereas SiO2 did not exert much effect on the corrosion behaviors. Compared to the TiO2 coating, TiO2 coating doped with Nb2O5 enhanced primary human osteoblast adhesion and promoted cell proliferation, whereas TiO2 coatings with SiO2 were inferior in their bioactivity, compared to TiO2 coatings. Our results suggest that the incorporation of Nb2O5 can enhance the biological performance of TiO2 coatings by changing the surface chemical composition and nanotopgraphy, suggesting its potential use in modification of biomedical TiO2 coatings in orthopedic applications.

Abstract
Titanium implant osseointegration is dependent on the cellular response to surface modifications and coatings. Titania-enriched nanocomposite polymeric resin coatings were prepared through the application of advanced ultrafine powder coating technology. Their surfaces were readily modified to create nano-rough (<100 nm) surface nano-topographies that supported human embryonic palatal mesenchymal cell responses. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy confirmed continuous and homogenous coatings with a similar composition and even distribution of titanium. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed complex micro-topographies, and atomic force microscopy revealed intricate nanofeatures and surface roughness. Cell counts, mitochondrial enzyme activity reduction of yellow 3-(4,5-dimethythiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) to dark purple, SEM, and inverted fluorescence microscopy showed a marked increase in cell attachment, spreading, proliferation, and metabolic activity on the nanostructured surfaces. Reverse Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) analysis showed that type I collagen and Runx2 expression were induced, and Alizarin red staining showed that mineral deposits were abundant in the cell cultures grown on nanosurfaces. This enhancement in human mesenchymal cell attachment, growth, and osteogenesis were attributed to the nanosized surface topographies, roughness, and moderate wetting characteristics of the coatings. Their dimensional similarity to naturally occurring matrix proteins and crystals, coupled with their increased surface area for protein adsorption, may have facilitated the response. Therefore, this application of ultrafine powder coating technology affords highly biocompatible surfaces that can be readily modified to accentuate the cellular response.

Abstract
A current medical challenge is the replacement of tissue which can be thought of in terms of bone tissue engineering approaches. The key problem in bone tissue engineering lies in associating bone stem cells with material supports or scaffolds that can be implanted in a patient. Beside bone tissue engineering approaches, these types of materials are used daily in orthopaedics and dental practice as permanent or transitory implants such as ceramic bone filling materials or metallic prostheses. Consequently, it is essential to better understand how bone cells interact with materials. For several years, the current authors and others have developed in vitro studies in order to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the response of human bone cells to implant surfaces. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge and proposes future directions for research in this domain.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to utilize ultrafine powder coating technology to prepare (PPC) that can support human mesenchymal cell attachment and growth. Resins were modified with titanium dioxide and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and enriched with either SiO2 or TiO2 nanoparticles (nSiO2 or nTiO2) to create continuous PPC. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed complex surface topographies with nano features, and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis with Ti mapping confirmed a homogenous dispersion of the material. SEM and inverted fluorescence microscopy showed that human embryonic palatal mesenchymal (HEPM) cells attached and spread out on the PPC surfaces, particularly those enriched with nTiO 2. Cell counts were higher, and the MTT assay measured more metabolic activity from the nTiO2 enriched PPCs. Furthermore, these cellular responses were enhanced on PPC surfaces that were enriched with a higher concentration of nTiO2 (2% vs. 0.5%), and appeared comparable to that seen on commercially pure titanium (cpTi). Therefore the nTiO 2 enrichment of PPC was shown to favor human mesenchymal cell attachment and growth. Indeed, this modification of the materials created continuous surface coatings that sustained a favorable cellular response.

Abstract
Biomimetic apatite/collagen composite coating, previously reported particularly with regard to its fabrication, characterization and interaction with osteoblast-like cells, has been investigated in this study to understand the response of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) to such surface. PLLA films and PLLA films with apatite coating were compared with PLLA films with apatite/collagen composite coating. The hMSC morphology in response to such conditions was first observed using fluorescence microscopy. To further understand such cell-material interactions at a molecular level, integrin expression, actin assembly and vinculin-positive focal adhesion plaques were examined. Our results demonstrated that spreading of stem cells on the apatite/collagen composite surface was determined best among the three types of surfaces, followed by the apatite surface and then the PLLA control. Integrin expression on the apatite/collagen surface was higher than those on the apatite surface and PLLA surface. Immunostaining for vinculin and actin suggested that the composite coating on PLLA enhanced the formation of focal adhesion.

Abstract
The modification of titanium (Ti) surfaces by ion-implantation has previously been reported to enhance osseointegration in vivo. However, the mechanisms underlying the apparently improved biocompatibility of these novel implant materials are unknown. The aim of this study is, therefore, to determine the precise effects of calcium ion-implanted Ti on the functional activity of bone cells in vitro. Flow cytometry (FCM) and the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to measure the response of bone-derived cells to key bone-associated components, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone morphogenetic protein receptor-1B (BMPR-1B), bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteonectin (ON), and osteopontin (OPN). FCM analysis showed that BMPR-1B, BSP and particularly OPN were significantly up-regulated in MG-63 cells cultured on Ca-implanted Ti compared with control nonimplanted Ti. Moreover, the effects of this novel Ca-Ti surface were found to be mediated, at least partly, via gene activation, since RT-PCR demonstrated the presence of notably elevated levels of OPN mRNA transcripts in the MG-63 cells. These findings thus show that Ti surfaces implanted with Ca ions can enhance the expression of certain bone-associated components in vitro, and suggest that this effect could be the cause of the potential benefit of this material on bone in vivo.

Abstract
The effects of material composition, surface chemistry or surface topography on cell attachment (short-term adhesion) have been largely studied on bone-derived cells. However, no statistical demonstration of these effects has been performed until now. With this objective, we quantified the attachment after 24 hours of human osteoblasts on pure titanium, titanium alloy and stainless steel substrates presenting 6 different surface morphologies and 2 different roughness amplitude obtained by sand-blasting, electro-erosion, acid etching, polishing and machine-tooling. The coating by a gold-palladium layer of these surfaces allowed determining the relative effect of the surface roughness and of the surface chemistry. By multiple analysis of variance, we demonstrated that neither material composition nor surface roughness amplitude influenced cell attachment except on sandblasted pure titanium substrates. On the contrary, a high significant influence of the process used to produce the surface was observed meaning that the main influent factor on cell attachment could be either the surface morphology or the surface chemistry induced by the process. As the coating of surfaces by a gold-palladium layer decreased significantly the attachment of cells on the majority of substrates, we concluded that attachment is rather influenced by surface chemistry than by surface topography.

Abstract
The use of calcium ion (Ca) implantation of titanium (Ti), previously reported to encourage osseointegration in vivo, has been investigated using an in vitro model in order to understand the basic mechanisms involved in the response of target cells to such surfaces. Polished Ti discs were implanted with high, medium and low (1x10(17), 1x10(16), 1x10(15)ionscm-2) doses of Ca ions at 40 keV. The effects of different levels of Ca implantation on morphology, attachment and spreading of MG-63 cells seeded on the surface of control (non-implanted) Ti and Ca-Ti discs were assessed. Further, to understand cell-material interactions at a molecular level, the expression of beta1 and alpha5beta1 integrins and the formation of vinculin-positive focal adhesion plaques were examined. In addition, the effects of pre-immersion of the Ca (high)-Ti in tissue culture medium on cell attachment were measured and correlated with specific chemical changes at the Ti surface. Our findings suggest that Ca implantation can affect the adhesion of MG-63 cells both qualitatively and quantitatively. However, this effect appears to depend on the level at which Ca ions are implanted. Results showed that although cell adhesion on Ca (high)-Ti was initially reduced, it nevertheless was not only restored but substantially increased with progressing culture times. In addition, a significantly enhanced cell spreading, formation of focal adhesion plaques and expression of integrins were measured on this particular surface. In contrast, no marked differences were observed in cell behaviour on Ca-Ti (low and medium). Pre-immersion studies indicated that the decrease in cell attachment to Ca (high)-Ti at early time periods may be linked to the presence of Ca- and P-rich particles on the surface. The absence of these particles at 24 h was consistent with a significant increase in cell attachment.

Abstract
Loss of bone near joint prostheses is thought to be caused by activation of recruited osteoclasts by osteolytic mediators induced by wear particles. It is proposed that particles inhibit osteogenesis during bone remodelling causing a reduction in the levels of peri-implant bone. This study explores whether prosthetic particles modulate bone formation by affecting osteoblastic bone-related mRNAs (alkaline phosphatase, pro-collagen Ialpha1, osteopontin, osteonectin, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein and thrombospondin) or their translated proteins using titanium alloy, commercially pure titanium, and cobalt-chrome particles. The direct effect of the particles revealed no change to the expression of the bone-related mRNAs in human bone-derived cells (HBDC) at the time points investigated; although non-collagenous translated proteins expressed by these HBDC were significantly effected (p<0.05). Different patterns of expression for bone-related proteins were induced by the different particles both directly and indirectly. Inflammatory mediators (interleukin-1beta, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and prostaglandin E2) had similar effects on HBDC to the media obtained from monocytes incubated with particles. This study shows that prosthetic wear particles can significantly modify the expression of bone-related proteins by osteogenic cells in vitro. These alterations in osteogenic activity at the interface of the implant and bone may be an important factor in the failure of many orthopaedic implants.

Abstract
Various surface modifications have been applied to titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) implants, in an attempt to enhance osseointegration; crucial for ideal prosthetic fixation. Despite the numerous studies demonstrating that peptide-modified surfaces influence in vitro cellular behavior, there is relatively little data reporting their effects on bone remodeling. The objective of this article was to examine the effects of chemically modifying Ti-6Al-4V surfaces with a common RGD sequence, a 15-residue peptide containing GRGDSP (glycine-arginine-glycine-aspartate-serine-proline), on the modulation of bone remodeling. The expression of proteins known to be associated with osseous matrix and bone resorption were studied during the growth of human bone-derived cells (HBDC) on these peptide-modified surfaces. HBDC grown for 7 days on RGD surfaces displayed significantly increased levels of osteocalcin, and pro-collagen Ialpha1 mRNAs, compared with the production by HBDC grown on the native Ti-6Al-4V. A pattern that was also reflected at the protein levels for osteocalcin, type I collagen, and bone sialoprotein. Moreover, HBDC grown for 7 and 14 days on RGD-modified Ti-6Al-4V expressed significantly higher level of osteoclast differentiation factors and lower levels of osteoprotegerin and IL-6 proteins compared with other surfaces tested. These results suggest that different chemical treatments of implant material (Ti-6Al-4V) surface result in differential bone responses, not only their ability to form bone but also to stimulate osteoclastic formation.

Abstract
Poor cell adhesion to orthopaedic and dental implants may result in implant failure. Cellular adhesion to biomaterial surfaces primarily is mediated by integrins, which act as signal transduction and adhesion proteins. Because integrin function depends on divalent cations, we investigated the effect of magnesium ions modified bioceramic substrata (Al(2)O(3)-Mg(2+)) on human bone-derived cell (HBDC) adhesion, integrin expression, and activation of intracellular signalling molecules. Immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, cell adhesion, cell adhesion blocking, and Western blotting assays were used. Our findings demonstrated that adhesion of HBDC to Al(2)O(3)-Mg(2+) was increased compared to on the Mg(2+)-free Al(2)O(3). Furthermore, HBDC adhesion decreased significantly when the fibronectin receptor alpha5beta1- and beta1-integrins were blocked by functional blocking antibodies. HBDC grown on the Mg(2+)-modified bioceramic expressed significantly enhanced levels of beta1-, alpha5beta1-, and alpha3beta1-integrins receptors compared to those grown on the native unmodified Al(2)O(3). Tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular integrin-dependent signalling proteins as well as the expression of key signalling protein Shc isoforms (p46, p52, p66), focal adhesion kinase, and extracellular matrix protein collagen type I were significantly enhanced when HBDC were grown on Al(2)O(3)-Mg(2+) compared to the native Al(2)O(3). We conclude that cell adhesion to biomaterial surfaces is probably mediated by alpha5beta1- and beta1-integrin. Cation-promoted cell adhesion depends on 5beta1- and beta1-integrins associated signal transduction pathways involving the key signalling protein Shc and results also in enhanced gene expression of extracellular matrix proteins. Therefore, Mg(2+) supplementation of bioceramic substrata may be a promising way to improve integration of implants in orthopaedic and dental surgery.

Abstract
To reveal the biocompatibility of TiMo12Zr6Fe2 (TMZF), a new titanium alloy used since 1998 for orthopaedic prosthesis, we compared the behavior of primary human fibroblasts and osteoblasts grown on TMZF discs or on plastic tissue culture dishes, a widely used material specifically treated by the manufacturer to enhance cell growth. Proliferation, differentiation. RNA and collagen type I expression level of human cells were carried out. The analysis were performed over a period of 96 h. Fibroblasts behaved at the same way on the two different supports after 48 h, their number increased after 96 h when cells were grown on the alloy. Osteoblasts adhered and proliferated on the alloy discs as well as on plastic. RNA expression level was not affected. Interestingly, cell number at each time point was higher for fibroblasts than for osteoblasts. The RNA expression level was higher for the osteoblasts. Both cell types cultured on the alloy revealed an increase in the amount of type I collagen and a similar electrophoretic pattern was found for collagen produced by fibroblasts and osteoblasts grown on either supports. These results indicate good biocompatibility of the TMZF alloy, which allowed adhesion and proliferation of both the examined cell types and suggest that TMZF is a promising material for orthopaedic implants.

Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cells derived from the rat aorta were cultured on unmodified or F(+) ion-implanted polystyrene (5 x 10(12) or 5 x 10(14) ions/cm(2), energy 150 keV). In 1-day-old cultures, the cells adhered to the modified polystyrene in higher numbers and over larger contact areas. Increased resistance of the cells to trypsin-mediated detachment from the growth support indicated an improved adhesion of cells to the modified polymer at later culture intervals. The cells cultured on ion-modified polymers also were larger and had a higher total protein content. By use of immunocytochemistry, several specific protein species were increased, including the cytoskeletal alpha-actin and vimentin and the plasma membrane-associated vinculin, talin, alpha-v integrins, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1, which account for stronger cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. The lower number of cells found floating in the medium suggests that the spontaneous detachment of cells from the modified polystyrene was lower and that the viability of the adhered cell population was higher. As was shown by the two-parameter flow-cytometric measurements of BrdU incorporation and DNA content, as well as by (3)H-thymidine autoradiography, the cell proliferation on samples modified by the dose of 5 x 10(12) ions/cm(2) was similar to that in controls; and at the dose of 5 x 10(14) ions/cm(2), it tended to be even lower. The cells grown on the polymer implanted with the dose of 5 x 10(12) ions/cm(2) responded to a new artificially created cell-free area in a confluent cell layer by more intense migration whereas at the dose of 5 x 10(14) ions/cm(2), the migration ability of cells was similar to that on the unmodified polymer. The data revealed a higher biocompatibility of ion-implanted polystyrene with vascular smooth muscle cells in culture. There was better adhesion, differentiation, and survival, and there was neither excessive migration nor proliferation.

Abstract
In spite of observed differences at the interface between boon and either commercially pure titanium [Ti(cpi)] or titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), the mechanism of such a response is ill understood. This prompted further investigation of the influence of similar metals on human bone-derived cells (HBDCs). This study investigated the influence of Ti(cpi) and its alloy on osteoblastic proteins formed by HBDCs grown for 5, 7, 10, and 14 days on these metals and compared them to cells grown on tissue culture polystyrene plates. Messenger RNA and translated proteins that form an array of osteogenic parameters were determined: alkaline phosphatase (ALP), thrombospondin, osteopontin, osteocalcin (OC), osteonectin (ON/SPARC), type I collagen (Col I) and bone sialoprotein (BSP). At the four predetermined time points, cells grown on either Ti(cpi) or Ti-6Al-4V generally expressed similar mRNA levels, while levels of their respective proteins differed. Cells on Ti(cpi) had peak levels for most proteins at day 7, whereas those on Ti-6Al-4V peaked at either day 5 and/or day 7. At day 5 cells grown on Ti-6Al-4V had higher levels of ALP, Col I, ON/SPARC, OC, and BSP than those in Ti(cpi); this difference was not maintained at later time points in culture. The differential regulation of proteins occurring between cells from the same patient grown on titanium and its alloy implies that HBDCs respond to small differences in the surface chemistry and/or microcrystallinity.
