Abstract
PURPOSE The hypothesis that locally-released iloprost, a synthetic prostacyclin analog, affects macrophage phenotype at a microdialysis implant in the subcutaneous space of rats was tested. Macrophage activation towards alternatively-activated phenotypes using pharmaceutical release is of interest to improve integration of implants and direct the foreign body reaction toward a successful outcome. METHODS Macrophage cell culture was used to test iloprost macrophage activation in vitro. Microdialysis sampling probes were implanted into the subcutaneous space of Sprague-Dawley rats to locally deliver iloprost in awake- and freely-moving rats. Monocyte chemoattractant protein -1 (CCL2) was quantified from collected dialysates using ELISA. Immunohistochemical staining was used to determine the presence of CD163+ macrophages in explanted tissues. RESULTS Iloprost reduced CCL2 concentrations in NR8383 macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. CCL2 concentrations in collected dialysates were similarly reduced in the presence of iloprost. Iloprost caused an increase in CD163+ cells in explanted tissue surrounding implanted microdialysis probes at two days post probe implantation. CONCLUSIONS Localized delivery of iloprost caused macrophage activation at the tissue interface of a microdialysis subcutaneous implant in rat. This model system may be useful for testing other potential macrophage modulators in vivo.

Abstract
Tissue repair and regeneration is a complex process. Our bodies have an excellent capacity to regenerate damaged tissues in many situations. However, tissue healing is impaired in injuries that exceed a critical size or are exacerbated by chronic inflammatory diseases like diabetes. In these instances, biomaterials and drug delivery strategies are often required to facilitate tissue regeneration by providing physical and biochemical cues. Inflammation is the body's response to injury. It is critical for wound healing and biomaterial integration and vascularization, as long as the timing is well controlled. For example, chronic inflammation is well known to impair healing in chronic wounds. In this review, we highlight the importance of a well-controlled inflammatory response, primarily mediated by macrophages in tissue repair and regeneration and discuss various strategies designed to promote regeneration by controlling macrophage behavior. These strategies include temporally controlled delivery of anti-inflammatory drugs, delivery of macrophages as cellular therapy, controlled release of cytokines that modulate macrophage phenotype, and the design of nanoparticles that exploit the inherent phagocytic behavior of macrophages. A clear outcome of this review is that a deeper understanding of the role and timing of complex macrophage phenotypes or activation states is required to fully harness their abilities with drug delivery strategies.

Abstract
Microdialysis is commonly used in neuroscience to obtain information about the concentration of substances, including neurotransmitters such as dopamine (DA), in the extracellular space (ECS) of the brain. Measuring DA concentrations in the ECS with in vivo microdialysis and/or voltammetry is a mainstay of investigations into both normal and pathological function of central DA systems. Although both techniques are instrumental in understanding brain chemistry each has its shortcomings. The objective of this review is to characterize some of the tissue and DA differences associated with each technique in vivo. Much of this work will focus on immunohistochemical and microelectrode measurements of DA in the tissue next to the microdialysis probe and mitigating the response to the damage caused by probe implantation.

Abstract
Mathematical models of controlled release that span the in vitro to in vivo transition are needed to speed the development and translation of clinically-relevant controlled release drug delivery systems. Fully mechanistic approaches are often challenged due to the use of highly-parameterized mathematically complex structures to capture the release mechanism. The simultaneous scarcity of in vivo data to inform these models and parameters leads to a situation where overfitting to capture observed phenomena is common. A data-driven approach to model development for controlled drug release from polymeric microspheres is taken herein, where physiological mechanisms impacting controlled release are incorporated to capture observed changes between in vitro release profiles and in vivo device dynamics. The model is generalizable, using non-specific binding to capture drug-polymer interactions via charge and molecular structure, and it has the ability to describe both inhibited (slowed) and accelerated release resulting from electrostatic or steric interactions. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced degradation of biodegradable polymers was incorporated via a reaction-diffusion formalism, and this suggests that ROS may be the primary effector of the oft-observed accelerated in vivo release of polymeric drug delivery systems. Model performance is assessed through comparisons between model predictions and controlled release of several drugs from various-sized microparticles in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Microdialysis sampling probes were implanted into the subcutaneous space on the dorsal side of male Sprague Dawley rats to locally deliver dexamethasone-21-phosphate (Dex) with the aim of altering in vivo macrophage polarization. Macrophage polarization is of significant interest in the field of biomaterials since wound-healing macrophages are a possible means to extend implant life as well as improve tissue remodeling to an implant. Quantitative analysis of CCL2 in collected dialysates, gene expression and immunohistochemistry performed on the tissue surrounding the microdialysis implant were used to evaluate if Dex polarized macrophages. Dex infusion down-regulated IL-6 and CCL2 gene expression and decreased CCL2 concentrations in dialysates collected at the implant site. Dex appeared to have no significant effect on the gene regulation of CD163, a commonly used M2c macrophage surface marker; Arg2; and iNOS2. However, Dex infusion was effective at increasing the number of CD163(+) cells surrounding the implanted microdialysis probe. This work demonstrates the use of microdialysis sampling to deliver agents such as Dex to alter macrophage polarization in vivo while allowing the ability to collect cytokines in the surrounding microenvironment.

Abstract
Implanted materials including drug delivery devices and chemical sensors undergo what is termed the foreign body reaction (FBR). Depending on the device and its intended application, the FBR can have differing consequences. An extensive scientific research effort has been devoted to elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive the FBR. Important, yet relatively unexplored, research includes the localized tissue biochemistry and the chemical signaling events that occur throughout the FBR. This review provides an overview of the mechanisms of the FBR, describes how the FBR affects different implanted devices, and illustrates the role that microdialysis sampling can play in further elucidating the chemical communication processes that drive FBR outcomes.

Abstract
Microdialysis sampling is a commonly used technique for collecting solutes from the extracellular space of tissues in laboratory animals and humans. Large molecular weight solutes can be collected using high molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) membranes (100kDa or greater). High MWCO membranes require addition of high molecular weight dextrans or albumin to the perfusion fluid to prevent fluid loss via ultrafiltration. While these perfusion fluid additives are commonly used during microdialysis sampling, the tissue response to the loss of these compounds across the membrane is poorly understood. Tissue reactions to implanted microdialysis sampling probes containing different microdialysis perfusion fluids were compared over a 7-day time period in rats. The base perfusion fluid was Ringer's solution supplemented with either bovine serum albumin (BSA), rat serum albumin (RSA), Dextran-70, or Dextran-500. A significant inflammatory response to Dextran-70 was observed. No differences in the tissue response between BSA and RSA were observed. Among these agents, the BSA, RSA, and Dextran-500 produced a significantly reduced inflammatory response compared to the Dextran-70. This work demonstrates that use of Dextran-70 in microdialysis sampling perfusion fluids should be eliminated and replaced with Dextran-500 or other alternatives.

Abstract
Microdialysis sampling in the brain is employed frequently in the chemical analysis of neurological function and disease, but implanting the probes, which are substantially larger than the size and spacing of brain cells and blood vessels, is injurious and triggers ischemia, gliosis, and cell death at the sampling site. The nature of the interface between the brain and the microdialysis probe is critical to the use of microdialysis as a neurochemical analysis technique. The objective of the work reported here was to investigate the potential of two compounds, dexamethasone, a glucocorticoid anti-inflammatory agent, and XJB-5-131, a mitochondrially targeted reactive oxygen species scavenger, to mitigate the penetration injury. Measurements were performed in the rat brain striatum, which is densely innervated by axons that release dopamine, an electroactive neurotransmitter. We used voltammetry to measure electrically evoked dopamine release next to microdialysis probes during the retrodialysis of dexamethasone or XJB-5-131. After the in vivo measurements, the brain tissue containing the microdialysis probe tracks was examined by fluorescence microscopy using markers for ischemia, neuronal nuclei, macrophages, and dopamine axons and terminals. Dexamethasone and XJB-5-131 each diminished the loss of evoked dopamine activity, diminished ischemia, diminished the loss of neuronal nuclei, diminished the appearance of extravasated macrophages, and diminished the loss of dopamine axons and terminals next to the probes. Our findings confirm the ability of dexamethasone and XJB-5-131 to mitigate, but not eliminate, the effects of the penetration injury caused by implanting microdialysis probes into brain tissue.

Abstract
The insertion of microdialysis probes into the rat striatum disrupts dopaminergic activity near the probe track. The present study suggests that a substantial fraction of DA terminals near the probe track (200 μm) survive the probe implantation itself but that the surviving terminals experience altered presynaptic inhibition. We found that probe implantation did not just alter the amplitude of evoked dopamine responses recorded by voltammetry, but also changed their temporal profile in a fashion similar to that previously observed by quinpirole, an agonist of dopamine D2 autoreceptors. Altered presynaptic inhibition is supported by a hypersensitivity of evoked dopamine responses recorded near to microdialysis probes to raclopride, a D2 antagonist. Further, we found that evoked dopamine release was also hypersensitive to a final dose of the dopamine transporter inhibitor, nomifensine.

Abstract
Microdialysis sampling of the brain is an analytical technique with numerous applications in neuroscience and the neurointensive care of brain-injured human patients. Even so, implanting microdialysis probes into brain tissue causes a penetration injury that triggers gliosis (the activation and proliferation of glial cells) and ischemia (the interruption of blood flow). Thus, the probe samples injured tissue. Mitigating the effects of the penetration injury might refine the technique. The synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone is a potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant substance. We performed microdialysis in the rat brain for 5 days, with and without dexamethasone in the perfusion fluid (10 μM for the first 24 h and 2 μM thereafter). On the first and fourth day of the perfusion, we performed dopamine no-net-flux measurements. On the fifth day, we sectioned and stained the brain tissue and examined it by fluorescence microscopy. Although dexamethasone profoundly inhibited gliosis and ischemia around the probe tracks it had only modest effects on dopamine no-net-flux results. These findings show that dexamethasone is highly effective at suppressing gliosis and ischemia but is limited in its neuroprotective activity.

Abstract
Nearly all commercially available glucose sensors share the subcutaneous interstitial fluid (ISF) compartment as their preferred implantation site. However, ISF physiology as it relates to glucose sensors is not well understood. This special symposium titled "Interstitial Fluid Physiology as It Relates to Glucose Monitoring Technologies" is intended to help to bridge the gap in our understanding. This symposium is intended to foster a greater understanding of biological factors that impact the success of implantable glucose monitors and to inspire additional research in the area of ISF physiology as it relates to glucose sensing. Recognition that sensor designers need to have an intimate understanding of the biological environment in which their sensor will reside is emphasized. The symposium is published in two parts, with part I published in September 2010 and part II published in May 2011. All articles published in this symposium are summarized herein.
