Abstract
Protein adsorption after biomaterial implantation is the first stage of the foreign body response (FBR). However, the source(s) of the adsorbed proteins that lead to damaged associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and induce inflammation have not been fully elucidated. This study examined the effects of different protein sources, cell-derived (from a NIH/3T3 fibroblast cell lysate) and serum-derived (from fetal bovine serum), which were compared to implant-derived proteins (after a 30 min subcutaneous implantation in mice) on activation of RAW 264.7 cells cultured in minimal (serum-free) medium. Both cell-derived and serum-derived protein sources when preadsorbed to either tissue culture polystyrene or medical-grade silicone induced RAW 264.7 cell activation. The combination led to an even higher expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes and proteins. Implant-derived proteins on silicone explants induced a rapid inflammatory response that then subsided more quickly and to a greater extent than the studies with in vitro cell-derived or serum-derived protein sources. Proteomic analysis of the implant-derived proteins identified proteins that included cell-derived and serum-derived, but also other proteinaceous sources (e.g., extracellular matrix), suggesting that the latter or nonproteinaceous sources may help to temper the inflammatory response in vivo. These findings indicate that both serum-derived and cell-derived proteins adsorbed to implants can act as DAMPs to drive inflammation in the FBR, but other protein sources may play an important role in controlling inflammation.

Abstract
Although three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques are used to mimic macro- and micro-structures as well as multi-structural human tissues in tissue engineering, efficient target tissue regeneration requires bioactive 3D printing scaffolds. In this study, we developed a bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)-immobilized polycaprolactone (PCL) 3D printing scaffold with leaf-stacked structure (LSS) (3D-PLSS-BMP) as a bioactive patient-tailored bone graft. The unique LSS was introduced on the strand surface of the scaffold via heating/cooling in tetraglycol without significant deterioration in physical properties. The BMP-2 adsorbed on3D-PLSS-BMPwas continuously released from LSS over a period of 32 d. The LSS can be a microtopographical cue for improved focal cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation.In vitrocell culture andin vivoanimal studies demonstrated the biological (bioactive BMP-2) and physical (microrough structure) mechanisms of3D-PLSS-BMPfor accelerated bone regeneration. Thus, bioactive molecule-immobilized 3D printing scaffold with LSS represents a promising physically and biologically activated bone graft as well as an advanced tool for widespread application in clinical and research fields.

Abstract
Implantable biomaterials are widely used in bone tissue engineering, but little is still known about how they initiate early immune recognition and the initial dynamics. Herein, the early immune recognition and subsequent osteoinduction of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) after implantation to the protein adsorption behavior is attributed. By liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis, the biomaterial-related molecular patterns (BAMPs) formed after BCP implantation are mapped, dominated by the highly expressed extracellular matrix protein fibronectin (Fn) and the high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). Molecular dynamics simulations show that Fn has the ability to bind more readily to the BCP surface than HMGB1. The preferential binding of Fn provides a higher adsorption energy for HMGB1. Furthermore, multiple hydrogen bonding sites between HMGB1 and Fn are demonstrated using a molecular docking approach. Ultimately, the formation of BAMPs through HMGB1 antagonist glycyrrhizic acid (GA), resulting in impaired immune recognition of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MYD88) mediated dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages (Mφs), as well as failed osteoinduction processes is obstructed. This study introduces a mechanism for early immune recognition of implant materials based on protein adsorption, providing perspectives for future design and application of tissue engineering materials.

Abstract
Non-woven textile has been largely used as medical implant material over the last decades, especially for scaffold manufacturing purpose. This material presents a large surface area-to-volume ratio, which promotes adequate interaction with biological tissues. However, its strength is limited due to the lack of cohesion between the fibers. The goal of the present work was to investigate if a non-woven substrate can be reinforced by embroidery stitching towards strength increase. Non-woven samples were produced from both melt-blowing and electro-spinning techniques, reinforced with a stitching yarn and tested regarding several performances: ultimate tensile strength, burst strength and strength loss after fatigue stress. Several stitching parameters were considered: distance between stitches, number of stitch lines (1, 2 or 3) and line geometry (horizontal H, vertical L, cross X). The performance values obtained after reinforcement were compared with values obtained for control samples. Results bring out that reinforcement can increase the strength by up to 50% for a melt-blown mat and by up to 100% for an electro-spun mat with an X reinforcement pattern. However, after cyclic loading, the reinforcement yarn tends to degrade the ES mat in particular. Moreover, increasing the number of stitches tends to fragilize the mats.

Abstract
Experimental studies demonstrated antibodies against matrix and coating of polyester-based vascular prostheses. Thus, this study examined associations of these antibodies with serum cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, and IL-10) and local inflammatory reactions. Rats (n = 8/group) intramuscularly received prosthesis segments [PET-C, PET-G, and PET-A groups: polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-based prostheses coated with bovine collagen and gelatin or human serum albumin, respectively; uncoated polytetrafluoroethylene-based (PTFE) prosthesis], with sham-operated controls. Blood was drawn pre-operatively and weekly until day 22. Polymer-specific or coating-specific antibodies and cytokines were detected by enzyme immunoassays, inflammatory reactions were immunohistochemically evaluated on day 23. Polymer-specific antibodies were detected in all PET-groups using uncoated PET as antigenic target, but not for PTFE or controls, coating-specific antibodies only for PET-A. IL-10 was increased in all PET-groups and correlated with polymer-specific antibodies for PET-G and PET-A. IL-2 was increased for PET-A, but overall correlated with PET-specific antibodies. IL-4 remained unchanged in all groups. Intense local inflammatory reactions (ED1+ /ED2+ macrophages and T lymphocytes) were found within all PET-groups, but only minor for PTFE or controls. In conclusion, PET-specific antibodies were associated with increased IL-10 and along with concurrent coating-specific antibodies also with increased IL-2, indicating a specific T cell response. Thus, matrix and/or coating of polymeric vascular prostheses elicit distinct systemic immune reactions, probably influencing local inflammatory reactions.

Abstract
Foreign Body Reaction (FBR) is a critical issue to be addressed when polyethylene terephthalate (PET) textile implants are considered in the medical field to treat pathologies involving hernia repair, revascularization strategies in arterial disease, and aneurysm or heart valve replacement. The natural porosity of textile materials tends to induce exaggerated tissue ingrowth which may prevent the implants from remaining flexible. The purpose of this study is to assess the influence of the textile topography of various woven substrates on the wetting properties of these substrates and on their in vitro interaction with mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) at 24 and 72 hr. The tests were performed both at yarn and fabric level under forced wetting and ingrowth conditions in order to replicate the mechanisms going on in vivo under blood pressure. Results demonstrate that cell proliferation is influenced by the textile wetting properties, which can be tuned at yarn and fabric level. In particular, it is shown that a satin weave obtained from porous spun yarn limits cell proliferation due to the high porosity of the yarn and the limited saturation index of the weave. Yarn and fabric saturation seems to play a predominant role in cell proliferation on textile substrates.

Abstract
Various treatments have been used to change both the topography and chemistry of titanium surfaces, aiming to enhance tissue response and reduce healing times of endosseous implants. Most studies to date focused on bone healing around dental implants occurring later during the healing cascade. However, the impact of the initial inflammatory response in the surgical wound site on the success and healing time of dental implants is crucial for implant integration and success, yet it is still poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of titanium surface hydrophilicity on the response of human neutrophils by monitoring oxygen radical production, which was measured as chemiluminescence activity. Materials and Methods: Neutrophils were isolated from human donors’ blood buffy coats using the double sucrose gradient method. Neutrophils were exposed to both hydrophilic and hydrophobic titanium surfaces with identical topographies in the presence and absence of human serum. This resulted in six experimental groups including two different implant surfaces, with and without exposure to human serum, and two control groups including an active control with cells alone and a passive control with no cells. Two samples from each group were fixed and analyzed by SEM. Comparisons between surface treatments for differences in chemiluminescence values were performed using analysis of variance ANOVA. Results and Conclusion: In the absence of exposure to serum, there was no significant difference noted between the reaction of neutrophils to hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces. However, there was a significant reduction in the mean and active chemiluminescence activity of neutrophils to serum-coated hydrophilic titanium surfaces than to serum-coated hydrophobic titanium surfaces. This suggests that surface hydrophilicity promotes enhanced adsorption of serum proteins, which leads to decreased provocation of initial immune cells and reduction of local oxygen radical production during wound healing. This can help explain the faster osseointegration demonstrated by hydrophilic titanium implants.

Abstract
Foreign Body Reaction (FBR) is a critical issue to be addressed when polyethylene terephthalate (PET) textile implants are considered in the medical field to treat pathologies involving hernia repair, revascularization strategies in arterial disease, and aneurysm or heart valve replacement. The natural porosity of textile materials tends to induce exaggerated tissue ingrowth which may prevent the implants from remaining flexible. One hypothesized way to limit the FBR process is to increase the material surface roughness at the yarn level. Supercritical N2 (ScN2) jet particle projection is a technique that provides enough velocity to particles in order to induce plastic deformation on the impacted surface. This work investigates the influence of ScN2 jet projection parameters like standoff distance or particle size on the roughness that can be obtained on medical polymer yarns of various diameters (100 and 400 μm) and woven textile surfaces obtained from a 100 μm yarn. Moreover, the mechanical and biological performances of the obtained modified textile material are assessed. Results bring out that with appropriate testing conditions (500 bars jet/500 mm distance between nozzle and PET textile) and particle size around 50 μm, it is possible to generate 20 μm large and 4 μm deep craters on a 100 μm monofilament PET yarn and fabric. Regarding the strength of the textile material, it is only slightly modified with the treatment process, as the tenacity of the yarns decreases by only 10%. Moreover, It is shown that the obtained structures tend to limit the adhesion and slow down the proliferation of human fibroblasts.

Abstract
Effective regenerative medicine relies on understanding the interplay between biomaterial implants and the adjoining cells. Scaffolds contribute by presenting sites for cellular adhesion, growth, proliferation, migration, and differentiation which lead to regeneration of tissues over desired periods of time. The fabrication and recruitment of scaffolds often fail to consider the interactions that occur at the interfaces, thereby risking rejection. This lack of knowledge on interfacial microenvironments and related exchanges often causes reduced cellular interactions, poor cell survival and intervention failure. Successful regenerative therapy requires scaffolds with bespoke biocompatibility, optimum pore structure, and cues for cell attachments. These factors determine the development of cellular affinity in scaffolds. For biomedical applications, a detailed understanding of scaffolds and their interfaces is required for better tuning of biomaterials to suit the microenvironments. In this review, we discuss the role of biointerfaces with a focus on surface chemistry, pore structure, scaffold hydro-affinity and their biointeractions. An understanding of the effect of scaffold interfacial properties is crucial for enhancing the progress of tissue engineering towards clinical applications.

Bone extracts immunomodulate and enhance the regenerative performance of dicalcium phosphates bioceramics. Acta Biomater 2019; 89:343-358. [PMID: 30853609 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.03.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2018] [Revised: 02/28/2019] [Accepted: 03/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Immunomodulation strategies are believed to improve the integration and clinical performance of synthetic bone substitutes. One potential approach is the modification of biomaterial surface chemistry to mimic bone extracellular matrix (ECM). In this sense, we hypothesized that coating synthetic dicalcium phosphate (DCP) bioceramics with bone ECM proteins would modulate the host immune reactions and improve their regenerative performance. To test this, we evaluated the in vitro proteomic surface interactions and the in vivo performance of ECM-coated bioceramic scaffolds. Our results demonstrated that coating DCP scaffolds with bone extracts, specifically those containing calcium-binding proteins, dramatically modulated their interaction with plasma proteins in vitro, especially those relating to the innate immune response. In vivo, we observed an attenuated inflammatory response against the bioceramic scaffolds and enhanced peri-scaffold new bone formation supported by the increased osteoblastogenesis and reduced osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, the bone extract rich in calcium-binding proteins can be 3D-printed to produce customized hydrogels with improved regeneration capabilities. In summary, bone extracts containing calcium-binding proteins can enhance the integration of synthetic biomaterials and improve their ability to regenerate bone probably by modulating the host immune reaction. This finding helps understand how bone allografts regenerate bone and opens the door for new advances in tissue engineering and bone regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Foreign-body reaction is an important determinant of in vivo biomaterial integration, as an undesired host immune response can compromise the performance of an implanted biomaterial. For this reason, applying immunomodulation strategies to enhance biomaterial engraftment is of great interest in the field of regenerative medicine. In this article, we illustrated that coating dicalcium phosphate bioceramic scaffolds with bone-ECM extracts, especially those rich in calcium-binding proteins, is a promising approach to improve their surface proteomic interactions and modulate the immune responses towards such biomaterials in a way that improves their bone regeneration performance. Collectively, the results of this study may provide a conceivable explanation for the mechanisms involved in presenting the excellent regenerative efficacy of natural bone grafts.

Abstract
In order to investigate the nature of the protein layer deposited on hemodialysis membranes we developed a direct immunohistochemical technique using fluoresceinated antibodies to plasma proteins. Fifteen patients on regular dialytic treatment were dialyzed with CU, HE, PAN, PS and PMMA and the dialyzers analyzed at the end of a standard dialytic session. Snap frozen sections of hollow fiber devices were treated with flourescein-isothiocyanate conjugated antibodies for IgG, IgA, IgM, C3c, fibrinogen, factor VIII, factor Xllla-s, antithrombin III, fibrinogen degradation products (PDF) and plasminogen. Protein deposits were evaulated by a quantitative criteria, which evaluates the intensity of fluorescence and the area of the capillary wall occupied by this fluorescence by using an image analysis software. The coagulation cascade is activated by all membranes and similar deposits of these proteins were revealed, whereas important differences in C3c deposition were found.

Abstract
Intradialytic coagulative and platelet activation, one of the main consequences of blood-membrane contact, was studied in a group of 5 RDT patients with a comparative evaluation of 3 different dialytic membranes: Cuprophan (CU), Polysulfone (PS) and Cellulose Triacetate (CT). Each patient underwent 5 consecutive dialysis sessions with the above mentioned membranes. Intradialytic platelet activation was studied through a morpho-functional evaluation between the mean platelet volume (MPV) and Serotonin (S), ß-Thromboglobulin (ß-TG) and Platelet Factor 4 (PF4) serum levels. These determinations were made before HD (time 0) and after 30', 120’ and 240'. We also checked the intradialytic status of thrombogenesis and fibrinolysis determining aPTT, thrombin time, fibrinogen, antithrombin III (AT III), α-2 antiplasmin and plasminogen, at the same time intervals. All membranes tested (CU, PS, CT) caused appreciable intradialytic platelet activation, above all after 15’ and at the end of dialysis sessions, more marked for CU than PS or CT. In particular MPV showed a decrease throughout the session (-5% at 30’ and -9% at 240') while S, ßTG and PF4 peripheral blood levels showed a significant increase at the same intervals with CU membrane. Lastly coagulative and fibrinolytic parameters showed no significant differences among any of the membranes tested.

Abstract
Understanding the composition of the adsorbed protein layer on a biomaterial surface is of an extreme importance as it directs the primary biological response. Direct detection using labeled proteins and indirect detection based on enzymatic assays or changes to mass, refractive index or density of a surface have been so far established. Nevertheless, using current methodologies, detection of multiple proteins simultaneously and particularly in a three-dimensional (3D) substrates is challenging, with the exception of radiolabeling. Here using fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT), we present a non-destructive and versatile approach to quantify adsorption of multiple proteins within 3D environments and reveal the dynamics of adsorption of human serum albumin (HSA) and fibrinogen (Fib) on 3D polymeric scaffold. Furthermore, we show that serum starved human articular chondrocytes in 3D environment preferentially uptake HSA over Fib and to our knowledge this represents the first example of direct visualization and quantification of protein adsorption in a 3D cell culture system. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The biomaterial surface upon exposure to biological fluids is covered by a layer of proteins, which is modified over a period of time and dictates the fate of the biomaterial. In this study, we present and validate a new methodology for quantification of protein adsorption on to a three-dimensional polymer scaffold from unitary and binary systems, using fluorescence molecular tomography, an optical trans-illumination technique with picomolar sensitivity. In additional to being able to follow behavior of two proteins simultaneously, this methodology is also suitable for studying protein uptake in cells situated in a polymer environment. The ability to follow protein adsorption/uptake in a continuous manner opens up new possibilities to study the role of serum proteins in biomaterial compatibility.

Abstract
The combined culture of isolated stem cells in tissue engineering scaffolds represents a popular strategy for the regeneration of specialized tissues. Despite of improved outcomes in some tissues, this stem cell-seeded tissue engineering strategy has not led to significant tissue regeneration as expected. The lower-than-expected outcome may be caused by overwhelming immune responses to scaffold materials and poor survival of seeded stem cells following implantation. This review is aimed at summarizing the success and failure of this strategy and also shedding some light on new directions to design scaffolds for promoting regenerative responses via autologous stem cells. The first half of this review summarizes the influence of scaffold physical and chemical properties on immune cell responses to scaffold implants. The second half focuses on the influence of scaffold design to alter immune and stem cell responses for achieving desirable tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The retention of a number of solutes that may cause adverse biochemical/biological effects, called uremic toxins, characterizes uremic syndrome. Uremia therapy is based on renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis being the most commonly used modality. The membrane contained in the hemodialyzer represents the ultimate determinant of the success and quality of hemodialysis therapy. Membrane's performance can be evaluated in terms of removal efficiency for unwanted solutes and excess fluid, and minimization of negative interactions between the membrane material and blood components that define the membrane's bio(in)compatibility. Given the high concentration of plasma proteins and the complexity of structural functional relationships of this class of molecules, the performance of a membrane is highly influenced by its interaction with the plasma protein repertoire. Proteomic investigations have been increasingly applied to describe the protein uremic milieu, to compare the blood purification efficiency of different dialyzer membranes or different extracorporeal techniques, and to evaluate the adsorption of plasma proteins onto hemodialysis membranes. In this article, we aim to highlight investigations in the hemodialysis setting making use of recent developments in proteomic technologies. Examples are presented of why proteomics may be helpful to nephrology and may possibly affect future directions in renal research.

Abstract
All biomaterials, when implanted in vivo, elicit cellular and tissue responses. These responses include the inflammatory and wound healing responses, foreign body reactions, and fibrous encapsulation of the implanted materials. Macrophages are myeloid immune cells that are tactically situated throughout the tissues, where they ingest and degrade dead cells and foreign materials in addition to orchestrating inflammatory processes. Macrophages and their fused morphologic variants, the multinucleated giant cells, which include the foreign body giant cells (FBGCs) are the dominant early responders to biomaterial implantation and remain at biomaterial-tissue interfaces for the lifetime of the device. An essential aspect of macrophage function in the body is to mediate degradation of bio-resorbable materials including bone through extracellular degradation and phagocytosis. Biomaterial surface properties play a crucial role in modulating the foreign body reaction in the first couple of weeks following implantation. The foreign body reaction may impact biocompatibility of implantation devices and may considerably impact short- and long-term success in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, necessitating a clear understanding of the foreign body reaction to different implantation materials. The focus of this review article is on the interactions of macrophages and foreign body giant cells with biomaterial surfaces, and the physical, chemical and morphological characteristics of biomaterial surfaces that play a role in regulating the foreign body response. Events in the foreign body response include protein adsorption, adhesion of monocytes/macrophages, fusion to form FBGCs, and the consequent modification of the biomaterial surface. The effect of physico-chemical cues on macrophages is not well known and there is a complex interplay between biomaterial properties and those that result from interactions with the local environment. By having a better understanding of the role of macrophages in the tissue healing processes, especially in events that follow biomaterial implantation, we can design novel biomaterials-based tissue-engineered constructs that elicit a favorable immune response upon implantation and perform for their intended applications.

Effect of peptide secondary structure on adsorption and adsorbed film properties on end-grafted polyethylene oxide layers. Acta Biomater 2014; 10:56-66.

Abstract
Poly-l-lysine (PLL), in α-helix or β-sheet configuration, was used as a model peptide for investigating the effect of secondary structures on adsorption events to poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) modified surfaces formed using θ solvents. Circular dichroism results showed that the secondary structure of PLL persisted upon adsorption to Au and PEO modified Au surfaces. Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) was used to characterize the chemisorbed PEO layer in different solvents (θ and good solvents), as well as the sequential adsorption of PLL in different secondary structures (α-helix or β-sheet). QCM-D results suggest that chemisorption of PEO 750 and 2000 from θ solutions led to brushes 3.8 ± 0.1 and 4.5 ± 0.1 nm thick with layer viscosities of 9.2 ± 0.8 and 4.8 ± 0.5 cP, respectively. The average number of H2O per ethylene oxides, while in θ solvent, was determined as ~0.9 and ~1.2 for the PEO 750 and 2000 layers, respectively. Upon immersion in good solvent (as used for PLL adsorption experiments), the number of H2O per ethylene oxides increased to ~1.5 and ~2.0 for PEO 750 and 2000 films, respectively. PLL adsorbed masses for α-helix and β-sheet on Au sensors was 231 ± 5 and 1087 ± 14 ng cm(-2), with layer viscosities of 2.3 ± 0.1 and 1.2 ± 0.1 cP, respectively; suggesting that the α-helix layer was more rigid, despite a smaller adsorbed mass, than that of β-sheet layers. The PEO 750 layer reduced PLL adsorbed amounts to ~10 and 12% of that on Au for α-helices and β-sheets respectively. The PLL adsorbed mass to PEO 2000 layers dropped to ~12% and 4% of that on Au, for α-helix and β-sheet respectively. No significant differences existed for the viscosities of adsorbed α-helix and β-sheet PLL on PEO surfaces. These results provide new insights into the fundamental understanding of the effects of secondary structures of peptides and proteins on their surface adsorption.

Abstract
PURPOSE Protein adsorption, cell adhesion and graft patency was compared in hydrophilic versus hydrophobic polymer-coated prosthetic vascular grafts. We hypothesize that in vivo compatibility of hydrophilic polymer-coated prosthetic vascular grafts is superior to in vivo compatibility of hydrophobic grafts. METHODS A pairwise side-to-side common carotid artery interposition graft was placed eight female landrace goats (mean weight 55 kg). Protein adsorption was assessed using Western Blot in two hydrophilic and two hydrophobic grafts harvested after three days. Graft patency was monitored for 28 days in six goats with continuous wave Doppler ultrasonography. Adherence of endothelial cells, leukocytes and platelets was determined with ELISA and compared between the two graft types after 28 days. RESULTS After three days, more ApoA-I, albumin and VEGF and less fibrin adsorbed to hydrophilic grafts. After 28 days, compared to hydrophobic grafts, higher numbers of endothelial cells were present on hydrophilic grafts (P=0.016), and less thrombocytes and leukocytes (P=0.012 and 0.024, respectively). Two out of eight hydrophobic grafts lost patency, while none of the hydrophilic grafts failed (P=0.157). CONCLUSIONS Hydrophilic polymer-coated vascular grafts have superior in vivo compatibility when compared to hydrophobic grafts as characterized by reduced platelet and leukocyte adherence as well as higher endothelialization.

Effect of peptide secondary structure on adsorption and adsorbed film properties. Acta Biomater 2013; 9:6403-13. [PMID: 23376129 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2013.01.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2012] [Revised: 01/07/2013] [Accepted: 01/12/2013] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Protein adsorption at the biomaterial-tissue interface is of utmost importance to the widespread application of engineered materials. The present study asked what role the secondary structures of peptides play in their adsorption, as well as how these structures affect the physicochemical properties of the final adsorbed layer. To this end, α-helices and β-sheets were induced in poly-l-lysine, and their adsorption to Au surfaces was monitored using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation. It was observed that secondary structures played an important role in governing both the adsorption process and the final film properties. Higher initial adsorption rates were obtained for α-helices compared with β-sheets, regardless of solution salt concentration. Adsorption half-time for β-sheets was greater than that for α-helices, and the final amount adsorbed on β-sheet was significantly higher than that on α-helix. The adsorbed amount and adsorption half-time decreased with increasing salt concentration, suggesting that electrostatic interactions played a role. It was found that the differences in Zeta potential coupled with the apparent effect of surface contact area differences between α-helix and β-sheet conformations are ultimately responsible for these different peptide adsorption behaviours at the Au interface. The initial adsorption rate of α-helix increased with salt concentrations up to 50mM, whereas β-sheet initial adsorption rates increased with salt concentrations up to 500 mM. Viscosities for films formed from α-helices were about twice those of β-sheets films, regardless of solution ionic strength. It was evident that the peptide secondary structures influence all aspects of their adsorption, as well as affecting the adsorbed film properties.

Abstract
This manuscript constitutes a review of several innovative biomedical technologies fabricated using the precision and accuracy of silicon micro- and nanofabrication. The technologies to be reviewed are subcutaneous nanochannel drug delivery implants for the continuous tunable zero-order release of therapeutics, multi-stage logic embedded vectors for the targeted systemic distribution of both therapeutic and imaging contrast agents, silicon and porous silicon nanowires for investigating cellular interactions and processes as well as for molecular and drug delivery applications, porous silicon (pSi) as inclusions into biocomposites for tissue engineering, especially as it applies to bone repair and regrowth, and porous silica chips for proteomic profiling. In the case of the biocomposites, the specifically designed pSi inclusions not only add to the structural robustness, but can also promote tissue and bone regrowth, fight infection, and reduce pain by releasing stimulating factors and other therapeutic agents stored within their porous network. The common material thread throughout all of these constructs, silicon and its associated dielectrics (silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, etc.), can be precisely and accurately machined using the same scalable micro- and nanofabrication protocols that are ubiquitous within the semiconductor industry. These techniques lend themselves to the high throughput production of exquisitely defined and monodispersed nanoscale features that should eliminate architectural randomness as a source of experimental variation thereby potentially leading to more rapid clinical translation.

Abstract
All biomedical materials are recognized as foreign entities by the host immune system despite the substantial range of different materials that have been developed by material scientists and engineers. Hydrophobic biomaterials, hydrogels, biomaterials with low protein binding surfaces, and those that readily adsorb a protein layer all seem to incite similar host responses in vivo that may differ in magnitude, but ultimately result in encapsulation by fibrotic tissue. The recognition of medical materials by the host is explained by the very intricate pattern recognition system made up of integrins, toll-like receptors, scavenger receptors, and other surface proteins that enable leukocytes to perceive almost any foreign body. In this review, we describe the various pattern recognition receptors and processes that occur on biomedical material surfaces that permit detection of a range of materials within the host.

Abstract
This article focuses on one of the major failure routes of implanted medical devices, the foreign body reaction (FBR)--that is, the phagocytic attack and encapsulation by the body of the so-called "biocompatible" biomaterials comprising the devices. We then review strategies currently under development that might lead to biomaterial constructs that will harmoniously heal and integrate into the body. We discuss in detail emerging strategies to inhibit the FBR by engineering biomaterials that elicit more biologically pertinent responses.

Abstract
The surface properties and biocompatibility of a class of thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) with applications in blood-contacting medical devices have been studied. Thin films of commercial TPUs and novel polyisobutylene (PIB)-poly(tetramethylene oxide) (PTMO) TPUs were characterized by contact angle measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging. PIB-PTMO TPU surfaces have significantly higher C/N ratios and lower amounts of oxygen than the theoretical bulk composition, which is attributed to surface enrichment of PIB. Greater differences in the C/N ratios were observed with the softer compositions due to their higher relative amounts of PIB. The contact angles were higher on PIB-PTMO TPUs than on commercial polyether TPUs, indicating lower surface energy. AFM imaging showed phase separation and increasing domain sizes with increasing hard segment content. The biocompatibility was investigated by quantifying the adsorption of fouling and passivating proteins, fibrinogen (Fg) and human serum albumin (HSA) respectively, onto thin TPU films spin coated onto the electrode of a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). Competitive adsorption experiments were performed with a mixture of Fg and albumin in physiological ratio followed by binding of GPIIb-IIIa, the platelet receptor ligand that selectively binds to Fg. The QCM-D results indicate similar adsorbed amounts of both Fg and HSA on PIB-PTMO TPUs and commercial TPUs. The strength of the protein interactions with the various TPU surfaces measured with AFM (colloidal probe) was similar among the various TPUs. These results suggest excellent biocompatibility of these novel PIB-PTMO TPUs, similar to that of polyether TPUs.

Abstract
Surface modification strategies that take advantage of the passivation effects of albumin are important in the development of biomaterial surfaces. In this study, linear peptides (LP1, LP2) and a small chemical ligand (SCL) with albumin binding affinities were grafted onto silane functionalized silicon substrates. Surfaces were characterized with contact angle and ellipsometric measurements, and densities of immobilized ligands were assessed spectroscopically. Ellipsometrically measured thickness correlated with the predicted molecular lengths of grafted moieties. Contact angle analysis indicated that the LP1 and LP2 functionalized surfaces were hydrophilic compared to SCL functionalized and control surfaces. Adsorption of albumin from human serum was evaluated and quantified via specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and 2D gel electrophoresis. The following trend was noted for surface adsorbed albumin: LP1 > LP2 > SCL > C, with LP1 derivatized surfaces having ~2.450 μg/cm(2) of bound albumin. LP1 derivatized surfaces possessed the least number of adsorbed platelets with rounded platelet morphology when compared to control surface.

Abstract
The response of biomaterial surfaces when exposed to blood is in part dependent upon the nature and composition of the adsorbed layer of proteins. Surfaces passivated with albumin have been shown to reduce platelet adhesion and activation. In an attempt to develop surfaces that can selectively and specifically bind albumin, silicon-based surfaces were functionalized with linear peptides and chemical ligands that displayed an affinity for albumin. Peptide functionalized surfaces were observed to preferentially bind albumin when compared to human immunoglobulin and human fibrinogen, which possess low densities of surface adsorbed platelets. The platelet morphology was noted to be discoid on the peptide modified surface. Both the unmodified control and SCL functionalized surfaces had high densities of surface adhered platelets with spread out morphology. The peptide and SCL functionalized surfaces were noted to have no impact on PTT and PT clotting times, indicating that the extrinsic and intrinsic pathways were unperturbed by the surfaces generated.

Abstract
The biocompatibility of implanted materials and devices is governed by the conformation, orientation, and composition of the layer of proteins that adsorb to the surface of the material immediately upon implantation, so an understanding of this adsorbed protein layer is essential to the rigorous and methodical design of implant materials. In this study, novel molecular dynamics techniques were employed in order to determine the change in free energy for the adsorption of a solvated nine-residue peptide (GGGG-K-GGGG) to a crystalline polylactide surface in an effort to elucidate the fundamental mechanisms that govern protein adsorption. This system, like many others, involves two distinct types of sampling problems: a spatial sampling problem, which arises due to entropic effects creating barriers in the free energy profile, and a conformational sampling problem, which occurs due to barriers in the potential energy landscape. In a two-step process that addresses each sampling problem in turn, the technique of biased replica exchange molecular dynamics was refined and applied in order to overcome these sampling problems and, using the information available at the atomic level of detail afforded by molecular simulation, both quantify and characterize the interactions between the peptide and a relevant biomaterial surface. The results from these simulations predict a fairly strong adsorption response with an adsorption free energy of -2.5 +/- 0.6 kcal/mol (mean +/- 95% confidence interval), with adsorption primarily due to hydrophobic interactions between the nonpolar groups of the peptide and the PLA surface. As part of a larger and ongoing effort involving both simulation and experimental investigations, this work contributes to the goal of transforming the engineering of biomaterials from one dominated by trial-and-error to one which is guided by an atomic-level understanding of the interactions that occur at the tissue-biomaterial interface.

Abstract
Implant-mediated fibrotic reactions are detrimental to the performance of encapsulated cells, implanted drug release devices, and sensors. To improve the implant function and longevity, recent research has emphasized the need for inducing alterations in cellular responses. Although material surface functional groups have been shown to be potent in affecting cellular activity in vitro and short-term in vivo responses, these groups appear to have little influence on long-term in vivo fibrotic reactions, possibly as a result of insufficient interactions between recruited host cells and functional groups on the implants. To maximize the influence of functionality on cells, and to mimic drug release microspheres, functionalized micron-sized particles were created and tested for their ability in modulating tissue responses to biomaterial implants. In this work, the surfaces of polypropylene particles were controllably coated with four different functional groups, specifically -OH, -NH(2), -CF(x), and -COOH, using a radio frequency glow discharge plasma polymerization technique. The effect of these surface functionalities on host tissue responses were then evaluated using a mice subcutaneous implantation model. Major differences were observed in contrasting tissue response to the different chemistries. Surfaces with -OH and -NH(2) surface groups induced the thickest fibrous capsule accompanied with the greatest cellular infiltration into the implants. In contrast, surfaces with -CF(x) and -COOH exhibited the least inflammatory/fibrotic responses and cellular infiltrations. The present results clearly demonstrate that, by increasing the available functionalized surface area and spatial distribution, the effect of surface chemistry on tissue reactivity can be substantially enhanced.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine complement cascade activation after an acute psychological stress task. Psychological stress has been implicated in the exacerbation of inflammatory disorders. Although the complement cascade is a key component of these inflammatory processes, there has been little research regarding its susceptibility to stress. METHODS In experiment 1, 38 healthy participants completed an 8-minute psychological stress task. Complement components were assessed from blood samples taken by venipuncture, at rest and immediately post task. In experiment 2, 40 participants undertook a similar task; blood samples were collected from a cannula at rest, immediately post task, and after 30 and 60 minutes of recovery. In experiment 3, 40 participants were exposed to both a stress and a control session. Session order was counterbalanced and, on both occasions, we received blood samples from half the participants via a cannula and the other half by repeated venipuncture. RESULTS In experiment 1, C3a levels increased significantly from rest to task, indicating complement cascade activation. In experiment 2, we found that both C3a and Factor Bb increased significantly from rest to task and recovered by 30 and 60 minutes. C5a rose significantly 30 minutes after completion of the stress task. In experiment 3, C3a increased in response to the mental stress task, whereas it decreased slightly during the control session. There was no significant effect of blood taking method. CONCLUSIONS These experiments demonstrate that the complement cascade is susceptible to acute psychological stress and suggest a potential mechanism for stress-induced inflammatory activation in individuals with inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
In the present study, we examined the effect of NiTi oxidation on material surface characteristics related to biocompatibility. Correspondence between electron work function (EWF) and adhesive force predicted by electron theory of adsorption as well as the effect of surface mechanical stress on the adhesive force were studied on the nonoxidized and oxidized at 350, 450, and 600 degrees C NiTi alloy for medical application. The adhesive force generated by the material surface towards the drops of alpha-minimal essential medium (alpha-MEM) was used as a characteristic of NiTi adsorption properties. The study showed that variations in EWF and mechanical stress caused by surface treatment were accompanied by variations in adhesive force. NiTi oxidation at all temperatures used gave rise to decrease in adhesive force and surface stress values in comparison to the nonoxidized state. In contrary, the EWF value revealed increase under the same condition. Variations in surface oxide layer thickness and its phase composition were also followed. The important role of oxide crystallite size in EWF values within the range of crystallite dimensions typical for NiTi surface oxide as an instrument for the fine regulation of NiTi adsorption properties was demonstrated. The comparative oxidation of pure titanium and NiTi showed that the effect of Ni on the EWF value of NiTi surface oxide is negligible.

Abstract
Protein-adsorptive properties are a key feature of membranes used for hemodialysis treatment. Protein adsorption is vital to the biocompatibility of a membrane material and influences membrane's performance. The object of the present study is to investigate membrane biocompatibility by correlating the adsorbed proteome repertoire with structural feature of the membrane surfaces. Minidialyzers of identical structural characteristics composed of either cellulose diacetate or ethylenevinyl alcohol materials were employed to develop an ex vivo apparatus to investigate protein adsorption. Adsorbed proteins were eluted by a strong chaotropic buffer condition and investigated by 2-DE coupled to both MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) mass fingerprinting and fragmentation analysis on a nanoLC-MS/MS hybrid instrument. Membrane surface characterization included evaluation of roughness (atomic force microscopy), elemental chemical composition (X-ray-photoelectron-spectroscopy), and hydrophilicity (pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance). The present study identifies a number of different proteins as common or characteristic of filter material interaction, showing that proteomic techniques are a promising approach for the investigation of proteins surface-adsorbed onto hemodialysis membrane. Proteomic analysis enables the characterization of protein layers of unknown composition.

Abstract
The biocompatibility of medical implants dictates the fate of almost all medical devices. It is well established that medical devices trigger a variety of adverse tissue responses, such as inflammation, fibrosis, infection and thrombosis. However, the mechanisms involved in biomaterial-mediated tissue responses remain largely unknown. The lack of such knowledge hinders the development of biomaterials with better biocompatibility and safety. The aim of this review is to summarize our current understanding of the processes governing foreign body reactions to tissue-contact devices. Obviously, this information is urgently needed for assisting the rational design of materials or medical devices to minimize undesirable tissue reactions upon implantation and, in addition, to promote the wound healing process.

Abstract
The ability of fibronectin (Fn) to mediate cell adhesion through binding to alpha(5)beta(1) integrins is dependent on the conditions of its adsorption to the surface. Using a model system of alkylsilane SAMs with different functional groups (X=OH, COOH, NH(2) and CH(3)) and an erythroleukemia cell line expressing a single integrin (alpha(5)beta(1)), the effect of surface properties on the cellular adhesion with adsorbed Fn layers was investigated. (125)I-labeled Fn, a modified biochemical cross-linking/extraction technique and a spinning disc apparatus were combined to quantify the Fn adsorption, integrin binding and adhesion strength, respectively. This methodology allows for a binding equilibrium analysis that more closely reflects cellular adhesion found in stable tissue constructs in vivo. Differences in detachment strength and integrin binding were explained in terms of changes in the adhesion constant (psi, related to affinity) and binding efficiency of the adsorbed Fn for the alpha(5)beta(1) integrins (CH(3) approximately NH(2)<COOH approximately OH) and the resulting average bond strength. Fn interacted more strongly with alpha(5)beta(1) integrins when adsorbed on COOH vs. OH surfaces suggesting that negative charge may be a critical component of inducing efficient cellular adhesion. As evident by the low psi values, Fn adsorbed on NH(2) and CH(3) surfaces interacted inefficiently with alpha(5)beta(1) integrins and also possessed significant non-specific components to adhesion. Lastly, comparison of cellular adhesion to Fn adsorbed onto smooth and rough surfaces showed that nano-scale roughness altered cellular adhesion by increasing the surface density of adsorbed Fn.
