Cells involved in acute inflamation
granulocyte, leukocyte, macrophage
granulocyte
any blood cell containg specific granules (e.g. neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils)
leukocyte
a colorless blood cell capable of ameboid movement (e.g. lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes)
macrophage
large phagocytic mononuclear cell
Complications of biomaterial-tissue interactions
alters physiological process such as inflammation, immunity, and blood coagulation



Change in physiological system comprises host defense mechanisms

Neutrophils
most common one, segmented nuclei connected by thin strands of chromatin



first to appear at injury site




Functions


-cells become sticky


-stick to capillary endothelium


-penetrate between the endothelial cells


-move into the surrounding damaged tissue


-emigration begins minutes to hours after injury and may continue for as long as 24 hr


Activates when engages foreign particles

Eosinophils
bi-lobed nucleus
Basophils
least common, large cytoplasmic granules which obscure the nucleus
Monocytes
the largest one, deeply indented or U-shaped nucleus
4 sign of acute inflamation
rubor (redness)

Tumor (swelling)


Calor (heat)


Dolor (pain)

functions of inflammatory response
-Delivery of effector molecules and cells to the sites of infection

-The formation of a physical barrier to the spread of the tissue damage or infection


-Wound healing and tissue repair

Tumor (swelling)

Increases pressure and inhibits blood flow



accumulate/ retain fluid due to pressure difference between capillary and external tissue bed increase



(normal conditions = low permability


tight endothelim- slow fluid flow and small molecules permeate


lymphatic vessels drain away fluid)





Increased permeability in inflammation allows for larger molecules to move into tissue at a greater rate




Increased fluid influx not promptly balanced by the lymphatic system

Rubor (redness)
Erythrocytes rush to the injury area and accumulate there
Calor (heat)
Increased cellular metabolic activity (Good)



Possible generation of pyrogens which are known to cause systemic fever.




Local disturbance of fluid flow

Dolor (pain)
From edema and kinins



local edema may activate local deep pain receptors




kinins act directly on nerve ends to produce pain sensations

Steps of Inflammatory Response
1) Damage tissues release histamine, which increases blood flow to the area

2)Histamines cause capillaries to leak, releasing phagocytes and clotting factors into the wound


3)Phagocytes engulf bacteria, dead cells, and cellular debris


4)Platelets move out of the capillary to seal the wounded area




RBCS bring O2 and ATP to fight bacteria

Acute Inflammation process
Initial stage = rapid dilation of capillaries and increase permeabiliy in their endothelial cell linings



Dilation leads to an increase in blood entry into the capillary bed


-foreign protein or material>coagulation factor> kinins>dilation and endothelial permeation


-loss of plasma through the capillary wall


-platelets and erythrocytes become sticky


-blood flows slower and sludgy

Acute Inflammation Cell Process
First neutrophils predominate for several days and then are replace by monocytes.



The Monocytes neutrophils because neutrophils are short lived, limited emigration, chemotactic factors for neutrophils are not active in late stages of inflamation




Monocyte emigration continues for days to weeks




Monocytes differentiate into macrophages which are very long lived

Successful response to acute inflammation
reduction in local tissue mass and fluid (edema)

dead cells removed by neutrophils and macrophages




engulfment and degradation of biomaterial may or may not occur

Chronic Inflammation
Follows the acute inflammatory stage, b/c persistent inflammatory stimuli

(chemical and physical properties of biomaterials, Motion in the implant site)




is confined to implant site





Characteristics of Chronic Inflammation
-presence of macrophages, monocytes, and lymphocytes

-proliferation of blood vessels and connective tissue


-No exudates (a mass of cells)

Function of macrophages
produce great number of biologically active products

-proteases to degrade molecules


-Chemotactic factors


-growth promoting factors


-cytokines



Growth Factors
Essential for



the growth of fibroblasts and blood vessels and the regeneration of endothelial cells




Stimulate the production of a wide variety of cless




Initiate cell migration and differentiation




tissue remodeling and wound healing

Granulation Tissue
hallmark of healing inflammation

pink, soft granular appearance

Angiogenesis
-proliferation, maturation, and organization of endothelial cells into capillary tubes

-Budding or sprouting of preexisitng vessels


-Formation of new small blood vessels

Wound healing response (primary union)
Wouund healing response is dependent on the extent of injury



wound healing by primary union


-wound edges approximated by surgical sutures


-without significant bacterial contamination


-clean surgical incisions


-minimal loss of tissues



Wound healing response (secondary union)
-large tissue defect

-extensive loss of cells and tissue


-the original architecture not reconstituted


-large amounts of granulation tissue formed


-larger areas of fibrosis or scar formation

Signs of Infection
smelly, pink, yellow, brown or green
Cells involved in Foreign Body Reaction
macrophages, mutinucleated foreign body giant cells, fibroblasts, capillaries



(are at interface of implant for lifetime of implant)

Fibrous Encapsulation
occur at the end stage of healing response (four or more weeks after implantation)



encapsulation thickness depends on the chemical activity of the material and thickness increases with increase relative motion between implant and the tissue




encapsulation thicker over sharp edges

What causes foreign body giant cells
production of small paricles by corrosion, depolymerization, dissolution or wear
FBR with implant with smooth and flat surfaces
encapsulation layer of macrophages one to two cells thick
FBR with implant with relatively rough surfaces
composed of multiple layers of macrophages and foreign body giant cells at the surface
FBR with implant with rough surfacs
macrophages and foreign body giant cells with varying degrees of granulation tissue
Delayed infection
happens witin 3 mons; slow development of introperative bacterial contamination
Late infection
months to years after surgery in sites of no prior history of infection



may be caused by transport and seeding of blood-borne bacteria from an established infection at a remote site

Interaction mechanism for non-toxic releases
are reabsorbed



or stimulaes inflammation




or enhances infections

Interaction mechanism for no-toxic and non-absorbalbe
are encapsulated
Other interactions
highly interactive bonding to tissues (natural materials)
