This study evaluated the effects of crystalline polyamide (Nylon-66), poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (PEVA), and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) polymers with nonporous and porous morphologies on the ability of monocytes to adhere and subsequently activate to produce IL-1β€, IL-6, and tumor necrosi

## Abstract The adsorption of fibronectin (FN) to (styrene/methyl methacrylate) copolymer surfaces, both sulfonated (hydrophilic) and nonsulfonated (hydrophobic), was studied by means of the radioisotope (^125^IβFN) and ELISA assays; the latter employed monoclonal antibodies. It was found that the
A cytokine-based, in vitro model of foreign body giant cell (FBGC) formation was utilized to examine the effect of biomaterial surface chemistry on the adhesion, motility, and fusion of monocytes and macrophages. Human monocytes were cultured for 10 days on 14 different silane-modified glass surface
## Abstract Two types of surface treatments (Low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition (TiβMOCVD) and anodized Ti) have been conducted on Ti to improve their osteointegration properties in view of dental implant application. The two typologies of surfaces have been characterized in vitro
## Abstract The effects of cell adhesion peptides (RGDS, KQAGDV, VAPG) on vascular smooth muscle cells grown on modified surfaces and in tissueβengineering scaffolds were examined. Cells were more strongly adhered to surfaces modified with adhesive ligands than to control surfaces (no ligand or a n
