## Abstract The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effects of alumina particles on secretion of several cytokines involved in bone resorption in cocultures of macrophages and osteoblasts. To distinguish the contribution of each individual cell type, we have established a heterologous
## Abstract Long term loosening of hip prostheses remains an important problem in orthopedics. Although various loosening mechanisms have been proposed, the exact process is still unclear. Particle disease and the pressure theory are widely known and generally accepted hypotheses to explain long te
## Abstract The mechanisms underlying the development of osteolysis and aseptic loosening have an impact on the longevity of total hip replacements (THRs). This study examines the specific roles of lymphocytes in the TH1 and TH2 subsets in osteolysis and aseptic loosening of THR. Tissue from peripr
