title: [Standardized testing of bone implant surfaces with an osteoblast cell culture system. II. Titanium surfaces of different degrees of roughness].
abstract: The effect of titanium surfaces with different degrees of roughness on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation was investigated using a standardised cell culture system. Human foetal osteoblasts (hFOB 1.19) were cultured on polished (Ti pol), sandblasted (Ti sb) and sandblasted/heat treated (Ti sb-ht) titanium surfaces for 17 days. Cell culture quality polystyrene (Ps) was used as a control. Cell number and viability were determined for assessment of proliferation. Alkaline phosphatase activity, collagen I and osteocalcin production were measured as parameters for osteoblast differentiation. In the early phase, higher proliferation values were measured on Ti pol. However, on Ti sb and Ti sb-ht higher proliferation was found in the late phase. The activity of the early differentiation marker alkaline phosphatase was higher on Ti pol. No differences were seen for the late differentiation parameters collagen I and osteocalcin. The test system permits the influence of the surface structure on the dynamics of the osteoblast development cycle to be determined. The larger surface area of rough materials leads to an initially delayed, but then prolonged cell proliferation. This model correlates with recent in vivo findings, and confirms the use of rough surfaces for implants in direct contact with bone, even at the cellular level.
