Abstract excerpt
Macrophages are phenotypically diverse cells performing a number of functions involved in immunity, inflammation, wound healing, tissue homeostasis and the foreign body reaction. In the latter, the type of biomaterial and the surrounding environment likely have an impact on macrophage phenotype and, subsequently, the severity of the reaction. The objectives for this study were to characterize the phenotype of...
