  • Cellular responses to particulate calcium phosphate ceramics can lead to inflammatory reactions under certain conditions that depend on particle composition, size and morphology. In this context, the potential influence of varying sizes of particulate beta-tricalciumphosphate (beta-TCP) on the induction of inflammation and cytotoxicity remains to be determined. The present work investigates the effects of beta-TCP particles of five different sizes (1, 3, 13, 32 and 40 ?m) on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in vitro concerning the release of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-8 after six and 18 h of incubation (ELISA) as well as intracellular TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, IL-1alpha, IL-1beta and IL-8 levels within distinct PBMC subpopulations after 12 h (FACS). Potential cytotoxic effects were determined by assaying lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and morphological analyses (electron microscopy). Beta-TCP 1 ?m did not induce any cytokine after 6 h but slightly increases TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-8 release after 18 h. Larger particles (32 and 40 ?m) consistently caused higher levels of cytokine release by increasing the fraction of cytokine producing monocytes. They also caused higher levels of LDH release as did smaller, phagocytosable particles. These data suggest a less inflammatory and cytotoxic profile of beta-TCP devices with a smaller primary particle size when compared to larger particles.
