Foreign Body Reaction to Implanted Biomaterials and Its Impact in Nerve Neuroprosthetics

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
The implantation of any foreign material into the body leads to the development of an inflammatory and fibrotic process—the foreign body reaction (FBR). Upon implantation into a tissue, cells of the immune system become attracted to the foreign material ...

Bio-inspired poly-DL-serine materials resist the foreign-body response

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Implantation-caused foreign-body response (FBR) is a commonly encountered issue and can result in failure of implants. The high L-serine content in low immunogenic silk sericin, and the high D-serine content as a neurotransmitter together inspire us to ...
