Glycolytic reprogramming underlies immune cell activation by polyethylene wear particles

C. V. Maduka, O. M. Habeeb, M. M. Kuhnert, M. Hakun, S. B. Goodman, C. H. Contag

The paper shows that polyethylene particles alter immune cell metabolism, leading to glycolytic reprogramming and inflammation, which can be inhibited to promote bone integration.

Polylactide Degradation Activates Immune Cells by Metabolic Reprogramming

C. V. Maduka, M. Alhaj, E. Ural, M. O. Habeeb, M. M. Kuhnert, K. Smith, A. V. Makela, H. Pope, S. Chen, J. M. Hix, C. L. Mallet, S.-J. Chung, M. Hakun, A. Tundo, K. R. Zinn, , C. H. Contag

This study shows that PLA degradation products reprogram cell metabolism, leading to immune activation and inflammation, and demonstrates that targeting metabolism can reduce inflammation and improve biocompatibility.
