“…This effect causes the risk of aseptic inflammation, which may result in implant loosening. Based on multiple retrieval studies, macrophages can play significant roles in determining the duration and intensity of the inflammatory response and in the mechanism behind implant failure [11][12][13]. Many coating materials and bone substitute materials can activate macrophages at the bone-implant interface, possibly leading to bone resorption and implant failure [14,15].…”

“…4,[26][27][28] Studies investigating the surface-dependent inflammatory responses have shown that nanostructured surfaces are able to mitigate the activation of macrophages by reducing the secretion of the pro-inflammatory mediators. [29][30][31][32][33][34] Moreover, surface nanostructuring of Ti (or Ti alloys) can be easily performed by electrochemical anodization, resulting in nanotubular structures directly coated on the Ti substrate. 35 For TiO 2 nanotubes, the activation of macrophages was shown to depend on the nanotopography, that is the diameter of the nanotubes is the key morphological parameter influencing inflammatory responses (from diameters ranging from 30 to 100 nm, the 70 nm showed the weakest inflammatory response).…”

“…Nanochannels were formed on TiZr alloy pieces (2 cm × 2 cm) containing 50 wt % Ti and 50 wt % Zr (from ATI Wah Chang Co., Albany, OR, USA) as previously described [18]. Briefly, prior to anodization, TiZr pieces were chemically etched in a cold acid mixture (HNO 3 :HF:H 2 O in a 3:1:2 ratio) for 10 s, rinsed with deionized water (DI) and dried in a N 2 stream.…”

“…The morphological and chemical characterization of the nanochannelar surface used in the present work was previously described [18]. Briefly, the morphology of nanochannels consists of~35 nm diameter and 3.2 ± 0.6 µm length (the top morphology is shown in Figure 1); note that the needle-like microstructure of the alloy is also transferred to the nanostructure.…”
