چکیده

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Primary and dynamically maintained periprosthetic bone formation is essential for osseointegration of hip implants to host bone. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play a role in osteoinductive bone formation. We hypothesized that there is an increased local synthesis of BMPs in the synovial membrane-like interface around aseptically loosened total hip replacement (THR) implants, as body attempts to generate or maintain implant fixation. PATIENTS AND METHODS We compared synovial membrane-like interface tissue from revised total hip replacements (rTHR, n = 9) to osteoarthritic control synovial membrane samples (OA, n = 11. Avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex staining and grading of BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-6, and BMP-7 was done. Immunofluorescence staining was used to study BMP proteins produced by mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts. RESULTS AND INTERPRETATION All BMPs studied were present in the synovial lining or lining-like layer, fibroblast-like stromal cells, interstitial macrophage-like cells, and endothelial cells. In OA and rTHR samples, BMP-6 positivity in cells, inducible by the proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1beta, predominated over expression of other BMPs. Macrophage-like cells positive for BMP-4, inducible in macrophages by stimulation with particles, were more frequent around loosened implants than in control OA samples, but apparently not enough to prevent loosening. MSCs contained BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-6, and BMP-7, but this staining diminished during osteogenesis, suggesting that BMPs are produced by progenitor cells in particular, probably for storage in the bone matrix.

Periprosthetic osteolysis and its association with RANKL expression.

Extensive osteolysis adjacent to orthopedic implants is often associated with wear particles of prosthetic material. The activation of the RANKL/RANK/OPG system is considered to be a likely cause of periprosthetic osteolysis leading to implant failure. The aim of this study was to examine the possible correlation between the clinical extent of osteolysis, the number of wear particles and expres...

Necrobiosis and T-lymphocyte infiltration in retrieved aseptically loosened metal-on-polyethylene arthroplasties

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Soft tissue necrobiosis and T-lymphocyte infiltration within the periprosthetic soft tissue have been linked to a suggested hypersensitivity reaction of the delayed-type following the metal-on-metal arthroplasty. While we observed both synovial necrobiosis and lymphocyte infiltrates in synovial tissues with failed metal-on-polyethylene prostheses, we hypothesized that bot...

Bone-Implant Interface Biology ―― Foreign Body Reaction and Periprosthetic Osteolysis in Artificial Hip Joints――

Aseptic loosening and periprosthetic osteolysis are major problems in artificial hip joint surgery,for which a solution has yet to be found. Biological host response to wear debris combined with cyclic mechanical loading onto the bone bed around hip prosthetic implants has been considered as mechanism responsible for implant-mediated periprosthetic osteolysis. Any type of artificial joint glidi...

Metal debris concentrations in soft tissues adjacent to loosened femoral stems is higher in uncemented than cemented implants

BACKGROUND There are still many questions related to aseptic femoral stem loosening. Systemic and local immune responses to the implanted "foreign body" is one of the reasons for loosening. The purpose of the study was to measure metal ion concentration (Ti, Co, Cr, Mo, Ni, Al) around loosened femoral stems and compare their levels around uncemented and cemented implants. METHODS This paper r...

0121 - Apoptosis in Pseudomembranes of Aseptically Loose Total Hip Arthroplasty: Implication of a Caspase-3-dependent, P53 Independent Pathway

Relevance to Musculoskeletal Conditions The identification of apoptosis in pseudomembranes (PMs) of aseptically loose Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) may offer specific target points for therapeutic modulation of osteolysis. The identification of a specific pathway leading to apoptosis contributes to our understanding of the mechanism leading to periprosthetic osteolysis and to a more rational str...
