چکیده

Aseptic loosening of total joint arthroplastics due to periprosthetic osteolysis is a frequent cause of implant failure. The absence of clinical interventions to arrest or prevent this complication limits the use of total joint replacement especially in younger patients. Here we review recent studies implicating tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in periprosthetic osteolysis and the rationale for clinical studies of anti-TNF therapy and other interventions for periprosthetic loosening.

Effect of TNF-α Blockade in Gingival Crevicular Fluid on Periodontal Condition of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Background: Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) share a number of clinical and pathologic features, one of which is the presence of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-induced bone resorption that is involved in the pathogenesis of both. Objectives: To investigate the effect of TNF-α blockade on periodontal conditions in patients with active RA. Method: The periodontal statuses of 3...

A Comparative Study of Inhibitory Effects on Peri-implant Osteolysis between Anti-tnf- Alpha Antibody and Bisphosphonate in a Rat Model

Introduction; Osteolysis around joint prostheses is reported to be caused by osteoclastic bone resorption, which stimulated by the release of bone-resorbing cytokines from macrophages phagocytosed wear debris such as polyethylene particles. Previous studies have demonstrated that a rat osteolysis model with continuous infusion of polyethylene particles is useful for observing osteolysis over a ...

RANK, RANKL and OPG in inflammatory arthritis and periprosthetic osteolysis.

Elucidation of the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (RANK), its ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) as the final effectors of bone resorption has transformed our understanding of metabolic bone diseases and revealed novel therapeutic targets. Activation of the RANK-RANKL signaling pathway is directly responsible for dramatic focal erosions that are observed in inflammatory arth...

Adenovirus-mediated siRNA targeting TNF-α and overexpression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 promotes early osteoblast differentiation on a cell model of Ti particle-induced inflammatory response in vitro

Wear particles are phagocytosed by macrophages and other inflammatory cells, resulting in cellular activation and release of proinflammatory factors, which cause periprosthetic osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening, the most common causes of total joint arthroplasty failure. During this pathological process, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) plays an important role in wear-particle-indu...

The influence of calcitonin gene-related peptide on markers of bone metabolism in MG-63 osteoblast-like cells co-cultured with THP-1 macrophage-like cells under virtually osteolytic conditions.

BACKGROUND The neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has been described to have an inhibitory effect on endotoxin- and wear particle-induced inflammation in the early stages of periprosthetic osteolysis. In the present study, the crosstalk between immune cells and osteoblasts in osteolytic conditions treated with CGRP has been analyzed to evaluate whether the anti-inflammatory pro...
