Abstract
Response to foreign materials includes local tissue reaction, osteolysis, implant loosening, and migration to lymph nodes and organs. Bionate 80A human explants show minor wear and slight local tissue reaction, but we do not know the response at the spinal cord, nerve roots, lymph nodes, or distant organs. This study aims to figure out reactions against Bionate 80A when implanted at the spinal epidural space of 24 20-week-old New Zealand white rabbits. In one group of 12 rabbits, we implanted Bionate 80A on the spinal epidural space, and another group of 12 rabbits was used as the control group. We studied tissues, organs, and tissue damage markers on blood biochemistry, urine tests, and necropsy. The animals' clinical parameters and weight showed no statistically significant differences. At 3 months, the basophils increased slightly in the implant group, platelets decreased in all, and at 6 months, implanted animals showed slight eosinophilia, but none of these changes was statistically significant. External, organ, and spinal tissue examination showed neither toxic reaction, inflammatory changes, or noticeable differences between groups or survival periods. Under microscopic examination, the Bionate 80A particles induced a chronic granulomatous response always outside the dura mater, with giant multinucleated cells holding phagocytized particles and no particle migration to lymph nodes or organs. Thus, it was concluded that Bionate particles, when implanted in the rabbit lumbar epidural space, do not generate a significant reaction limited to the surrounding soft tissues with giant multinucleated cells. In addition, the particles did not cross the dura mater or migrate to lymph nodes or organs.

Abstract
This article focuses on obtaining ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) material reinforced with functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (f-SWCNTs) and the manufacturing of unicompartmental knee implants via Single-Point Incremental Forming process (SPIF). The physicochemical properties of the developed UHMWPE reinforced with 0.01 and 0.1 wt% concentrations of f-SWCNTs are investigated using Raman and Thermogravimetic Analysis (TGA). Tensile mechanical tests performed in the nanocomposite material samples reveal a 12% improvement in their Young's modulus when compare to that of the pure UHMWPE material samples. Furthermore, the surface biocompatibility of the UHMWPE reinforced with f-SWCNTs materials samples was evaluated with human osteoblast cells. Results show cell viability enhancement with good cell growth and differentiation after 14 incubation days, that validates the usefulness of the developed nanocomposite material in the production of hip and knee artificial implants, and other biomedical applications.

, of approximately 0.6 × 106, 5 × 106, and 9 × 106, were supplied as compression mouldings by a leading manufacturer of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). They were code-named PE06, PE5, and PE9, respectively. Specimens cut from these mouldings were subjected to a wide range of mechanical tests at 23 °C. In tensile tests, deformation was initially elastic and dominated by crystallinity, which was highest in PE06. Beyond the yield point, entanglement density became the dominant factor, and at 40 % strain, the rising stress–strain curves for PE5 and PE9 crossed the falling PE06 curve. Fracture occurred at strains above 150 %. Differences in stress–strain behaviour between PE5 and PE9 were relatively small. A similar pattern of behaviour was observed in wear tests; wear resistance showed a marked increase when

was raised from 0.6 × 106 to 5 × 106, but there was no further increase when it was raised to 9 × 106. It is concluded that the unexpected similarity in behaviour between PE5 and PE9 was due to incomplete consolidation during moulding, which led to deficiencies in entanglement at grain boundaries; they were clearly visible on the surfaces of both tensile and wear specimens. Fatigue crack growth in 10 mm thick specimens was so severely affected by inadequate consolidation that it forms the basis for a separate report – Part 4 in this series.

Friction stability and cellular behaviors on laser textured Ti-6Al-4V alloy implants with bioinspired micro-overlapping structures. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2020; 109:103823.

Abstract
The grain structure and surface morphology of bio-implants act as a pivotal part in altering cell behavior. Titanium alloy bone screws, as common implants, are prone to screws loosening and complications threat in the physiological environment due to their inferior anti-wear and surface inertia. Manufacturing bone screws with high wear resistance and ideal biocompatibility has always been a challenge. In this study, a series of overlapping morphologies inspired by the hierarchical structure of fish scales and micro bulges of shrimp were structured on Ti-6Al-4V implant by laser texturing. The results indicate that the textured patterns could improve cell attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. The short-term response of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) on the textured surface are more sensitive to the microstructure than the surface roughness, wettability, grain size and surface chemical elements of the textured surfaces. More importantly, the friction-increasing and friction-reducing type overlapping structures exhibit excellent friction stability at different stages of modified simulated body fluid (m-SBF) soaking. The overlapping structure (Micro-smooth stacked ring: MSSR) is more beneficial to promote the formation of apatite. Deposited spherical-like apatite particles can act as a "lubricant" on the MSSR surface during the friction process to alleviate the adhesion wear of the surface. Meanwhile, apatite particles participate in the formation of friction film, which plays an effective role in reducing friction and antiwear in corrosion solution (m-SBF) for a long time. These features show that the combination of soaking treatment in m-SBF solution with laser-textured MSSR structure is expected to be an efficient and environmentally friendly strategy to prolong the service life of bone screws and reducing the complications of mildly osteoporotic implants.

J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2020; 104:103629.

Abstract
Ultra-low-wear polyethylene (ULWPE) is a new metallocene catalyzed high density polyethylene (HDPE)material. Previous studies have demonstrated that it has excellent biocompatibility and wear resistance, whereupon indicating great potential in the applications to artificial joints. However, as a newly developed material, its tribological behavior and wear resistance mechanism has not been well understood. In the current study, we experimentally evaluated the tribological behavior of ULWPE, and investigated its high wear resistance mechanism in terms of microstructure, crystallization properties, mechanical, physical, and chemical properties. ULWPE manifested the best tribological performance on pin-on-disc (POD) wear tests compared with the most widely used artificial joints materials, with a wear volume of 0.720 ± 0.032 mm3/million cycles (Mc) and 0.600 ± 0.027 mm3/Mc against cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloy disc and zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) ceramic disc, respectively. The results of the wear morphology analysis showed that the surface of ULWPE was the slightest, with no obvious surface damage, debris shedding and wear pits. We reveal that three major factors mainly contributed to its high wear resistance. First, ULWPE demonstrated a high crystallinity and a compact crystalline morphology comprised of long linear molecular chains, which contributed to its good mechanical performance. As confirmed by the mechanical test, ULWPE had a very high density, hardness, and tensile elongation at break. The high hardness and strength laid a solid foundation to a low wear volume, and its high ductility and hardness helped to endure abrasive and adhesive wear, resulting in excellent wear resistance. Second, the results of wettability analysis showed that the contact angle formed on the surface of ULWPE was the lowest and the surface energy was the highest. The hydrophilicity of ULWPE provided good lubrication conditions in body fluid. Third, it also had a lower oxidation index. The high hardness, high strength, high ductility and good wetting of ULWPE materials reduced the damage of the material to adhesion and abrasive wear, resulting in excellent wear resistance.

Abstract
Curcumin attracted attention due to its promising anti-cancer properties and safety performance. However, its poor aqueous solubility and low bioavailability have to be overcome before it goes into clinic use. Here, porous composite particles are prepared by loading curcumin into mesoporous material SBA-15, and its therapeutic effect on lung cancer via inhalation administration have also been evaluated. The inclusion of curcumin in host material SBA-15 was confirmed by the reduced surface area and pore diameter of the composite material, and the aerodynamic performance of the composite material was investigated by FT-4 and NGI. Phagocytosis experiments on RAW264.7, the toxicity of material extracts on BEAS-2B cells, and the haemolysis experiments showed that the mesoporous materials had good biocompatibility at 10-400 μg/mL. The B16F10 melanoma metastatic lung mouse model was used to investigate the therapeutic effect of lung cancer after inhalable administration. It was found that the body weight of the curcumin composite particle-administered group decreased more slowly and the lung disease developed slower than the curcumin crude drug group, indicating that the composite particles has a certain inhibitory effect on tumours.
