The cytotoxic effect of different concentrations of titanium particles on osteoblasts was studied in vitro. It was found that the viability of the osteoblasts was inversely proportional to the particle concentration. Phagocytosis of particles by the osteoblasts was evident and was demonstrated to be

β¦ Synopsis
Abstract
Wear particles generated following total joint arthroplasty interact with cells at the periprosthetic margin and induce an inflammatory response that contributes to osteolysis, aseptic loosening, and implant failure. This study examined the longβterm effects of particles from two commonly implanted materials, titanium (Ti) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), on cell viability and metabolism over a 21βday time course, using the human osteoblastβlike cell line MGβ63. Addition of particles was not associated with increased cell death or nitric oxide production at the particle concentration chosen. Collagen production was increased with exposure to titanium particles, whereas alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin expression remained unchanged following exposure to both types of particles. The data show that titanium but not PMMA particles shifts bone cell metabolism to preferentially produce fibrous tissue rather than bone. Β© 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res, 2006

To clarify the role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha on osteoblast functions in the presence of metal particles, two human osteoblast-like cell lines (MG-63 and SaOS-2) were cultured with TNF-alpha in the presence or absence of titanium particles in vitro. A combination of TNF-alpha and titanium
## Abstract The surface topography and chemistry of titanium are postulated to be two major factors that affect the osseointegration capacity of titanium implants. However, it is extremely difficult to control one factor without changing the other, which prevents the isolation of the genuine effect

## Abstract Titanium and its alloys are widely used as implant materials for dental and orthopaedic applications. To improve their wear and corrosion resistance, several surface modifications that give rise to an outer ceramic layer of rutile have been developed. It is expected that after a long pe
