Abstract | The induction of a suitable immune microenvironment by implant is essential for fast bone regeneration. Surface potential is a critical factor that influences immune cells behavior. We apply polydopamine coatings on a titanium (Ti) surface to decrease its surface potential. A lower surface potential favored the expression of adhesionrelated genes in bone marrow-derived monocytes (BMDMs) by activating the focal adhesion kinase signaling pathway. A lower negative surface potential results in higher electronic repulsion between the surface and the BMDMs, because the cells exhibit negative charged membrane. To resist the repulsive force, Integrin beta 1 and Integrin beta 3 in the cell membrane for low surface potential group are upregulated. Furthermore, BMDMs cultured on Ti with low surface potential are more inclined polarize towards anti-inflammatory phenotype (M2) in vitro and in vivo. Whole gene expression analysis reveals that inhibition of the PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling axis is responsible for the immune regulation ability of Ti with low surface potential. The cytokines secreted by M2 BMDMs promote osteogenic differentiation of a mouse embryo cell line (C3H10T1/2) and increase osteointegration between the implant and newly formed bone. These findings reveal that surface potential regulation is a promising strategy to reprogram the immune microenvironment for bone regeneration and provide insights into developing biomaterials with immunomodulatory functions. |
