Bioact Mater 2024; 31:333-354. [PMID: 37663617 PMCID: PMC10474570 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.07.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Fe-based materials have received more and more interests in recent years as candidates to fabricate bioresorbable stents due to their appropriate mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, the low degradation rate of Fe is a serious limitation for such application. To overcome this critical issue, many efforts have been devoted to accelerate the corrosion rate of Fe-based stents, through the structural and surface modification of Fe matrix. As stents are implantable devices, the released corrosion products (Fe2+ ions) in vessels may alter the metabolism, by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS), which might in turn impact the biosafety of Fe-based stents. These considerations emphasize the importance of combining knowledge in both materials and biological science for the development of efficient and safe Fe-based stents, although there are still only limited numbers of reviews regarding this interdisciplinary field. This review aims to provide a concise overview of the main strategies developed so far to design Fe-based stents with accelerated degradation, highlighting the fundamental mechanisms of corrosion and the methods to study them as well as the reported approaches to accelerate the corrosion rates. These approaches will be divided into four main sections, focusing on (i) increased active surface areas, (ii) tailored microstructures, (iii) creation of galvanic reactions (by alloying, ion implantation or surface coating of noble metals) and (iv) decreased local pH induced by degradable surface organic layers. Recent advances in the evaluation of the in vitro biocompatibility of the final materials and ongoing in vivo tests are also provided.

Abstract
When blood first encounters the artificial surface of a medical device, a complex series of biochemical reactions is triggered, potentially resulting in clinical complications such as embolism/occlusion, inflammation, or device failure. Preventing thrombus formation on the surface of blood-contacting devices is crucial for maintaining device functionality and patient safety. As the number of patients reliant on blood-contacting devices continues to grow, minimizing the risk associated with these devices is vital towards lowering healthcare-associated morbidity and mortality. The current standard clinical practice primarily requires the systemic administration of anticoagulants such as heparin, which can result in serious complications such as post-operative bleeding and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Due to these complications, the administration of antithrombotic agents remains one of the leading causes of clinical drug-related deaths. To reduce the side effects spurred by systemic anticoagulation, researchers have been inspired by the hemocompatibility exhibited by natural phenomena, and thus have begun developing medical-grade surfaces which aim to exhibit total hemocompatibility via biomimicry. This review paper aims to address different bio-inspired surface modifications that increase hemocompatibility, discuss the limitations of each method, and explore the future direction for hemocompatible surface research.

Abstract
Cardiovascular stents are life-saving devices and one of the top 10 medical breakthroughs of the 21st century. Decades of research and clinical trials have taught us about the effects of material (metal or polymer), design (geometry, strut thickness, and the number of connectors), and drug-elution on vasculature mechanics, hemocompatibility, biocompatibility, and patient health. Recently developed novel bioresorbable stents are intended to overcome common issues of chronic inflammation, in-stent restenosis, and stent thrombosis associated with permanent stents, but there is still much to learn. Increased knowledge and advanced methods in material processing have led to new stent formulations aimed at improving the performance of their predecessors but often comes with potential tradeoffs. This review aims to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of stent material interactions with the host within five areas of contrasting characteristics, such as 1) metal or polymer, 2) bioresorbable or permanent, 3) drug elution or no drug elution, 4) bare or surface-modified, and 5) self-expanding or balloon-expanding perspectives, as they relate to pre-clinical and clinical outcomes and concludes with directions for future studies.
