Abstract

In this study we have demonstrated that endothelial cells grown on Ti6Al4V alloy show decreased ability to react to pro-inflammatory stimuli TNF-α and LPS than the cells grown on PS. This is most probably due to increased oxidative stress induced by Ti6Al4V alloy. This decreased pro-inflammatory capacity could have an impact on the function of endothelial cells in wound healing and determine the success of the implant integration.
