Defensins Impair Phagocytic Killing by Neutrophils in Biomaterial-Related Infection

Abstract: The implantation of foreign material carries a risk of infection which frequently is resistant to all treatment short of removing the implant. We have previously shown that these materials activate neutrophils by contact, leading to production of oxygen free radicals accompanied by release of granule products. Such activation further results in depletion of local host defenses, including the capacity of biomaterial-activated neutrophils to kill bacteria. Among the granule products released from neutrophils are… Show more

“…Macrophages can produce osteoblast activity factors such as BMP-2 and TGF-b (2). During wear debris-induced periprosthetic osteolysis, the macrophages are recruited to the local site (13,32,44). In contrast, bone tissue-resident macrophages (OsteoMacs), essential in directing osteoblast function/ mineralization, have not been studied during AL (2).…”

“…Ведущая роль S. aureus и S. epidermidis в этиологии ортопедической ППИ во многом обусловлена способностью быстро формировать многоуровневые микробные биопленки на поверхности искусственных имплантатов [8,9]. Существование возбудителей в составе биопленок затрудняет диагностику ППИ и снижает эффективность антибактериальной терапии, в том числе препаратами, высокоактивными в отношении метициллин-резистентных стафилококков [10,12,13].…”

“…The behaviors of neutrophil adhesion to biomaterials are determined by surface chemistry [ 239 ], topography [ 240 ], wettability [ 241 ], and stiffness [ 242 ]. Polystyrene and woven Dacron or Silastic induced neutrophil release of granule antibacterial products (are cationic peptides known as defensins) to create an environment hostile to phagocytic killing by neutrophils [ 243 ]. Polytetrafluoroethylene and Dacron promoted the production of ROS and mediated premature neutrophil death while polystyrene did not [ 239 ].…”
