“…The localised release of chemokines may contribute to the formation of the synovial-like membrane described in aseptic loosening. 29 The synovial-like membrane shows increased levels of profibrotic and immunosuppressive transforming growth factor-ß 29 and upregulation of the plasminogen activation system, 30 which are consistent with a chronic inflammatory response. Our chemotactic studies confirm that particle-induced chemokine release from monocytes/macrophages increases monocyte migration across a membrane.…”

“…Immunohistochemical study of the plasminogen activation system, which is closely associated with MMP activities, disclosed localization in periprosthetic tissues of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), uPA-receptor (uPAR), and tissue type plasminogen activator (tPA) in macrophages with phagocytosed metal, polyethylene, cement particles, or accompanying pieces of necrotic bone [86]. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) staining was present in the neighboring areas that stained for uPA or tPA, but PAI-1 staining was also found overlapping and outside these areas.…”

“…Macrophages activated by the phagocytosed wear particles can produce proteolytic and fibrinolytic enzymes, such as tissue plasminogen activator (Nordsletten et al 1996). We therefore studied the clotting and the fibrinolytic pathways in patients having loose prostheses to determine whether systemic changes occurred, even at a subclinical level.…”

“…It has been thought that fibrinolysis may play a role in extracellular matrix degradation in periprosthetic tissues. Macrophages containing phagocytosed material express plasminogen activators, which suggests that undegradable microdebris can initiate and perpetuate a proteolytic activation cascade (Nordsletten et al 1996). Plasminogen activators, together with other serine proteinases and metalloproteinases, have been found in the interface and pseudocapsular tissues (Takagi 1996).…”
