Responses of endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and platelets dependent on the surface topography of polytetrafluoroethylene

Abstract: In this study, the effect of different structures (flat, expanded, and electrospun) of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) on the interactions of endothelial cells (ECs), smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and platelets was investigated. In addition, the mechanisms that govern the interactions between ECs, SMCs, and platelets with different structures of PTFE were discussed. The surface characterizations showed that the different structures of PTFE have the same surface chemistry, similar surface wettability and zeta pote… Show more

“…Flat PTFE, ePTFE, and electrospun PTFE were prepared as we previously reported . Briefly, the PTFE materials were cut into 1 cm × 1 cm samples, immersed in absolute ethanol for 2 min and dried in a biological safety cabinet for 18 h before the specimens were used for macrophage interaction studies.…”

“…In our previous study, we investigated the interaction of endothelial cells (ECs), smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and platelets with different topographies of PTFE . We performed a thorough surface characterization of three different forms of PTFE: flat PTFE, expanded PTFE (ePTFE), and electrospun PTFE that are currently used for making various cardiovascular devices.…”

“…13 The impact of the diameter and orientation of the nano-and micro-fibers on the platelet aggregation, although inconclusive in several publications, can influence the coagulation cascade and platelet adhesion. 30 Despite little clinical and commercial success, nano-fibers have a strong potential for application as hemostatic agents.…”
