Extract

Cellular interactions at the interface between bone and a prosthetic device plays an important role in total joint reconstruction success or failure. Aseptic loosening is a typical long-term complication encountered due to a failure at this interface. A number of factors have been shown to influence cell mitogenic and morphological behavior including load and stability [1] surface topography and surface chemistry [2]. The selection of suitable surface coatings on a prosthetic device would be facilitated if the nature of the interaction of bone cells to surface could be predicted from appropriate behavior of cells in tissue culture [3]. Molecular biology techniques now enable investigators to study cell-substrate interactions and gene expression at the mRNA level.
