“…The fact that the erosive action of macrophages on PCL surface is very small if any was already shown by Bat et al [7]. Notwithstanding, Mabileau et al [33] cultivated macrophages on poly(-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) surfaces and found that the erosive effect of the cells is highly depended on the cross-linking density of the material.…”

“…Both polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) are hydrophobous semicrystalline polymers. The ester groups of the main chain are susceptible to hydrolysis and thus PCL and PLLA degrades in the presence of water, phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or lipoprotein lipase [6,7]. Other hydrolytic enzymes do not show significant effect on the degradation rate of these polymers [7e9].…”

“…However, a burst release phenomenon of VCM was observed. Poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC), 18,19 a surface-eroding biodegradable material that is fully biocompatible, 20 exhibits an ideal sustained, zero-order release profile and promotes bone regeneration 21 due to its unique degradation behavior. 22 In this study, with the aim to increase the sustained effectiveness of intracellular antibiotics and the probability of biocompatibility, VCM/TMC NP-PTMC was prepared using a composite of VCM/TMC NPs and PTMC.…”

“…Meanwhile, the PTMC is best known as a surface-eroding polymer and is fully biocompatible, which appears to fully degrade in bone and assists in promoting bone regeneration. 18,21 Generally, in the clinic, patients are commonly supplied therapy for at least 4 weeks. Therefore, VCM/TMC NP-PTMC could meet the requirements.…”

“…The erosion rate of these films was 159±8 (µg/(cm 2 ×day)), which corresponds to a mass loss The water in air contact angles and the water uptake of non-crosslinked and of photocrosslinked PTMC films are given in Previously, hydrolytic enzymes and oxidative species that can be secreted by macrophages have been shown to erode PTMC networks 21, 43 . We investigated the erosion of our photocrosslinked PTMC networks using aqueous cholesterol esterase (CE) and aqueous KO 2 solutions.…”
