AI Article Synopsis
- Understanding the interaction between biomaterials and the immune system is essential for improving bone prostheses, with mineralized collagen (MC) showing promise over traditional hydroxyapatite (HA).
- The study compares the inflammatory responses of RAW264.7 cells cultured on MC and HA surfaces, revealing that MC promotes M2 macrophage markers (CD206 and IL-10), while HA activates pro-inflammatory responses (CD86 and TNF-α).
- These findings suggest that MC may reduce inflammation around implanted bone prostheses, potentially leading to better integration and outcomes in patients.
Article Abstract
Understanding the interaction between biomaterials and the immune system has become increasingly important. Mineralized collagen (MC) has the same chemical components and microstructures to natural bone tissue, and is considered as a better biomaterial for bone prostheses compared to hydroxyapatite (HA). However, there is little information about how MC affects inflammatory responses. In this study, we investigate the inflammatory responses to MC and HA by culturing RAW264.7 cells on their surfaces. We observed that MC increases CD206+ staining and IL-10 (M2 macrophages), whereas HA shows cells expressing more CD86 and secreting more TNF-α. This result indicates that MC may attenuate inflammatory responses to implanted bone prostheses.

Ionizing radiation on the skin has the potential to cause various sequelae affecting quality of life and even leading to death due to multi-system failure. The development of radiation dermatitis is attributed to oxidative damage to the skin's basal layer and alterations in immune response, leading to inflammation. Past studies have shown that [18F]F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography ([18F]F-FDG PET/CT) can be used effectively for the detection of inflammatory activity, especially in conditions like hidradenitis suppurativa, psoriasis, and early atherosclerosis.

Objective: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a monogenetic disorder associated with sustained mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation, leading to heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Epilepsy and renal angiomyolipoma are the most important causes of morbidity in adult people with TSC (pwTSC). mTOR is a key player in inflammation, which in turn could influence TSC-related clinical manifestations.

One key determinant of HIV-1 latency reversal is the activation of the viral long terminal repeat (LTR) by cellular transcription factors such as NF-κB and AP-1. Interestingly, the activity of these two transcription factors can be modulated by glucocorticoid receptors (GRs). Furthermore, the HIV-1 genome contains multiple binding sites for GRs.
