The paper shows that immunometabolic cues around biomaterials influence immune cell trafficking and microenvironment composition, promoting a pro-regenerative state through metabolic reprogramming.

This study shows that PLA stereochemistry affects immune responses through differential metabolic changes in macrophages and fibroblasts, with stereocomplex PLA increasing proinflammatory cytokines via glycolysis.

The paper shows that elevated oxidative phosphorylation in macrophages exposed to polyethylene particles increases ROS and proinflammatory cytokines, suggesting a role in inflammation and implant failure.

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