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

Advanced strategies to thwart foreign body response to implantable devices
Bioengineering & Translational Medicine, 2022 Mitigating the foreign body response (FBR) to implantable medical devices (IMDs) is critical for successful long‐term clinical deployment. The FBR is an inevitable immunological reaction to IMDs, resulting in inflammation and subsequent fibrotic ...

European Heart Journal – Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015 A 65-year-old patient visited the outpatient clinic 2 months after he had undergone coronary artery bypass surgery during a stay in South America. This semi-elective procedure was performed following an acute anterior myocardial infarction. The patient had two-vessel disease and the culprit lesion in the left anterior descending coronary artery was …

The role of foreign body response in peri‐implantitis: What is the evidence?
Periodontology 2000, 2022 Historically, there has been broad consensus that osseointegration represents a homeostasis between a titanium dental implant and the surrounding bone, and that the crestal bone loss characteristic of peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐induced inflammatory ...

Implant Fibrosis and the Underappreciated Role of Myofibroblasts in the Foreign Body Reaction
Cells, 2021 Body implants and implantable medical devices have dramatically improved and prolonged the life of countless patients. However, our body repair mechanisms have evolved to isolate, reject, or destroy any object that is recognized as foreign to the ...

Foreign-body aspiration into the lower airways in adults; multicenter study
PLoS ONE, 2022 Background Foreign-body aspiration is common in children aged 6 months to 3 years. However, with the aging population and increasing prevalence of disabilities such as hemiparesis and neuromuscular diseases in adults, an increased incidence of aspiration

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

Modulating the Foreign Body Response of Implants for Diabetes Treatment
Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2021 Diabetes Mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by high blood glucose levels due to patients' inability to produce sufficient insulin. Current interventions often require implants that can detect and correct high blood glucose levels with minimal ...
