“…Plasma, which can be regarded as the fourth state of matter, is composed of highly excited atomic, molecular, ionic, and radical species. One of the great benefits of plasma modification is the ability to uniformly modify surfaces regardless of geometry, allowing for modification of micro and nanoparticles [74], films [72], or 3D components required in tissue engineering and artificial organs [75]. The process provides an economical and effective way to infer functionality to a surface, and is compatible with most materials currently being investigated in medicine including metals [71], polymers [72], and ceramics [73].…”

Implantable medical devices are increasingly important in the practice of modern medicine. Unfortunately, almost all medical devices suffer to a different extent from adverse reactions, including inflammation, fibrosis, thrombosis and infection. To improve the safety and function of many types of medical implants, a major need exists for development of materials that evoked desired tissue responses. Because implant-associated protein adsorption and conformational changes thereafter have been shown to promote immune reactions, rigorous research efforts have been emphasized on the engineering of surface property (physical and chemical characteristics) to reduce protein adsorption and cell interactions and subsequently improve implant biocompatibility. This brief review is aimed to summarize the past efforts and our recent knowledge about the influence of surface functionality on protein:cell:biomaterial interactions. It is our belief that detailed understandings of bioactivity of surface functionality provide an easy, economic, and specific approach for the future rational design of implantable medical devices with desired tissue reactivity and, hopefully, wound healing capability.

“…This has the potential to produce MSCs of the appropriate phenotype for use in intervertebral disc tissue engineering. Carbon dioxide plasma treatments have been used to improve rodent fibroblast and nerve cell adhesion on PLLA surface,71 while plasma coating of a PLGA surface with titanium oxide has also been shown to improve surface hydrophilicity for human dermal fibroblast cell adhesion 68…”
