Objective To examine biomaterial biocompatibility and improve current methods of immunological evaluation TNF-alpha and IL1-beta were used as indicators at mRNA levels.Methods Rat peritoneal macrophages were stimulated with different biomaterials and expression of TNF-alpha and IL1-beta was measured by RT-PCR and compared within different groups.Results Macrophages that were stimulated with PTFE produced significantly more TNF-a and IL1-b than unstimulated macrophages (p < 0.001). The PLGA, NPG, beta-TCP, and CPC groups also induced moderate TNF-alpha and IL1-b expression (p < 0.01).Conclusions TNF-alpha and IL1-beta are sensitive indicators of immune stimulation that can help to monitor the levels of cellular activation induced by different biomaterials. Our findings showed that beta-TCP and CPC had a good biocompability, and CPC was the most biocompatible of all the biomaterials tested. While PTFE and NPG still had side effect because of producing pro-inflammatory cytokines in vitro once implanted.
