The foreign body reaction—an experimental protocol

Abstract: SummaryA comprehensive protocol is presented for the in vivo evaluation of soft tissue foreign body reactions to surgical implants. A number of methods of evaluation and quantitation of the tissue reaction to implants are presented and discussed. A strong plea is made for semi-quantitation of tissue reactions, rather than relying on subjective, qualitative methods.

“…Brandao and colleagues have analyzed the biocompatibility of bioglass implants in the rabbit eviscerated socket. In line with previously published work [53][56], no systemic toxicity was observed and a pseudocapsule had formed after 90 days [57].…”

“…Bioglass was implanted in the maxillae and mandibles of baboons [53], subcutaneously in rats [54] and intramuscularly in rabbits [55]. An adverse inflammatory reaction at the implantation site was not observed in any of these experiments but a thin collagenous capsule can frequently be found at the interface between the bioglass implant and the surrounding tissue [56]. Brandao and colleagues have analyzed the biocompatibility of bioglass implants in the rabbit eviscerated socket.…”

“…The biocompatibility of the given material with tissue includes both local biological compatibility, i. e., the acute and chronic inflammatory responses and fibrous capsule formation, which is seen over various time periods following implantation of the respective material, and systemic compatibility, which implies no propagated effect to tissue remote from the site of implantation [91][92][93].…”

“…Although they are recognized as non-self by nonspecific immunity (in contrast to the transplants), they are able to induce a serious inflammatory response (Refs. 1,2 The growth of keratinocytes (Kc) on the surface of synthetic hydrogels as cultivation supports was studied with respect to the influence of preincubation of these materials with bovine serum containing numerous bioactive proteins improving the adhesivity of cells (Ref. 5) in in vitro conditions.…”
