title: [Effect of low modulus titanium alloy's different surface microtopograph on the biological behavior of rabbits' lacertus fibroblast].
abstract: This study was undertaken to assess the effect of different surface microtopograph of Ti-Nb-Zr-Sn alloy on the biological behavior and soft tissue integration of rabbits' lacertus fibroblast. The lacertus fibroblasts of Achilles tendon of rabbits were cultured and inoculated on the surface of smooth Ti-flake (control group), and on the surface of sand blast, microgrooves, thread Ti-flakes respectively (3 treatment groups). The cell's growth ratio and attaching status were examined by MTT test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The rabbits' lacertus fibroblasts proliferated regularly on the surface of Ti-flakes, and most results of their inter-group comparison showed statistically significant difference (P<0.05), thus indicating the different effects of different surface microtopographs on cell's proliferation; By SEM, the cells were noted to have no obvious directivity on smooth surface; they attached irregularly on the sand blast surface. But in the other two groups, they were oriented regularly along the texture. The cells were almost shuttle-like on the four kinds of surface except for a part of irregular cells on the sand blast surface, and there were plentiful cell-cell junctions. Under high power lens, we found cells with limpid microvilli in the experiment samples. Owing to the cell's fast proliferation and regular attachment in the experiment, we concluded that the regular microgrooved surface was more suitable for meeting the requirement of the soft tissues' physiological function.
