STUDY OBJECTIVES AND METHODS
The aim of this review was to highlights recent advances in osteoimmunomodulation of biomaterials after intrabone implantation from a novel perspective-surface hydrophilicity, and summarizes the series of immune reactions and subsequent bone remodeling that occur in response to hydrophilic implants, focusing on protein adsorption, the behaviors of major immune cells, and osteoimmunomodulation-enhanced angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Hydrophilic biomaterials have the capacity to alter the surrounding immune microenvironment and accelerate the process of material-tissue bonding, thereby facilitating the successful integration of biomaterials with tissue. Collectively, the authors hope that this article provides strategies for modulating hydrophilicity to achieve osteoimmunomodulatory performance and further promotes the development of novel implantable biomaterials for orthopedic and dental applications.
