Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the connection between reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS-RNS) and the corrosion of biodegradable magnesium (Mg) materials, specifically looking at how inflammatory macrophages interact with these materials.
  • Mg foils implanted for 24 hours showed increased proinflammatory macrophage activity, leading to enhanced corrosion, particularly in Mg discs compared to AZ61 discs.
  • Results suggest that the inflammatory environment alters the corrosion properties of biodegradable Mg, impacting its viability and performance in biomedical applications, regardless of the body's natural antioxidant defenses.
