Introduction
简介
Over the past decade, research and
development of new biomedical
materials
has turned from “passive” materials to
materials that actively
interact and
integrate with their biological environment.
在过去的几十年里,新生物医用材料的研究和发展已经从“被动
的”材料转向和生物环境积极相关并成为整体的材料。
Unfortunately, this paradigm shift has
not been matched by a requisite
enhancement of our knowledge of the
mechanisms of interaction between
the
materials and proteins, cells, and other materials
within the biological
environment.
不幸的是,
这种范例的转变和我们必
备的知识不相匹配。
这种知识就
是材料与蛋白质、细胞以及其他
生物环境的材料相互作用的机理。
Given the
unique nature of tissues and organs, we lack
biological design
criteria for the
development of new materials and devices
constructed
from these materials.
考虑到组织和器官的独特性质,
由于新材料和新设备的发展是从这些
材料出发的,我们至今缺少生物设计的标准。
Additional constraints in our
developing biological design criteia and
structure/biological property
relationships are our dependence on
in
vitro
studies and non-human
models in the development process.
在我们发
展生物设计标准和结构的过程中,还存在额外的限制因素。
在研究过程中,生物学性质的
关系仅仅依赖于试管研究和非人体模
型。
The history of biomaterials
生物材料的历史
As has
been stated by many authors in many different
ways, if we do not
understand and
appreciate the past, we are doomed to repeat it in
the
future.
正如许多
作者用不同的方法阐述的一样,
如果我们没有理解和领会过
去,
将来我们注定会重复过去。

of biomaterials.
表
1
展示了作者关于生物材料的观点。
As
exempli?ed by
the
change in font size of
the word “biomaterials”, the
?rst
quarter century, 1950 to 1975, of biomaterials
development was
dominated by
the characteristics of the materials intended for
prostheses
and medical devices.
正如改变单词
“biomateri
als”
字体大小的例证,第一个四分之一世纪,
即从
1950
年到
1975
年,
生物材料的发展是以做假体和医学设备材料为
主导的。
p>
Important in the early days
was the long-term integrity of the biomaterial
as well as its non-toxic nature.
早些年,生物材料的长期稳定性和无毒性是很重要的。
Biological interactions that were
considered included the non-toxic nature
of the biomaterial as well
as its normal in?amma
tory
and wound healing
responses when
implanted.
在移植过程中,要考虑生物间的相互
作用,包括生物材料的无毒性、
常规的发炎以及伤口愈合的效应。
Many materials were described as
being inert, but this was a confusing
descriptor as it did not adequately and
appropriately describe material
changes
following implantation or cell and tissue
responses to the
implanted biomaterial.
许多材料被描述成不活泼的,
但这是
一个让人困惑的描述。
因为它没
能充分准确地描述移植过程材料
发生的变化或细胞和组织对移植的
生物材料作出的反应。
It eventually became clear that
materials could change without adversely
affecting the function and interaction
of the biomaterial, prosthesis, or
medical device.
材料在变化中不会对生物材料、
假体或医疗设备的功效产生不利影响
最终变得清晰。
Likewise,
modulation of the in?ammatory and wound
healing
responses
could
occur without altering the function of the
biomaterial, prosthesis, or
medical
device.
同样地,
炎症的调
节和伤口愈合可以在不改变生物材料、
假体或医疗
设备功能的前
提下完成。
From a biological
perspective, no material is inert.
从生物学角度来看,没有哪种材料是无效的。
From 1975 to 2000, biological
interactions with biomaterials began to be
more extensively investigated.
从
1975
年到
2000
年,生物学和生物材料的相互作用开始被广泛研究
。
Advances in our knowledge
of biological mechanisms, for example, the
coagulation, thrombosis, and complement
pathways, led to a better
understanding
of biological interactions with biomaterial
surfaces.
在生物机理知识方面的进步,比如凝结作用、血栓形成、补充途径
等
使我们能更好的理解与生物材料表面的生物作用。
In t
he 1980’s, the
revolution in techniques for
the study
of cell and
molecular biology led to
their application to the investigation of
interactions occurring at biomaterial
interfaces.
在
20<
/p>
世纪
80
年代,
在细胞和生物分子学研究中的技术改革引发了它们
在生物材料界面应用的研究。
More recently, with the advent
of the areas of tissue engineering and
regenerative medicine, heavy emphasis
has been placed on biological
interactions with biomaterials.
近来,
随着组织工程学和再生医药的出现,
生物材料和
生物体间的相
互作用越来越引起人们的重视。
In some cases, this has led to an
undesirable decrease in the appreciation
of material properties and their role
in these
new scienti?c areas.
在某些情况下,
生物体与生物材料间
的相互作用会导致材料性质评价
和它们在新的科学领域地位的下降。
An example of these types of
problems is presented with biodegradable
polymer scaffolds for tissue
engineering and their ultimate disposition
including changes in form and integrity
with resultant changes in the
in?ammatory and foreign body reactions
over the implantation time
period.
可生物降解的高分子支架在组织工程学和它们
最终的分解中呈现的
就是这类问题的一个例子,
所提到的分解包
含在移植过程中由于炎症
与外来体相互作用而导致形式和生成物组成的改变。

Medical implant design
医疗植入体的设计
In
approaching
the
research
and
development
of
new
biomedical
materials
for
prostheses
and
medical
devices
as
well
as
an
enabling
technology
for
tissue
engineering
and
regenerative
medicine,
a
comprehensive, virtually all-inclusive
perspective is initially necessary to
begin to appreciate design criteria.
p>
在假体和医疗设备的新型生物材料研究开发和增长关于组织工程学
和
再生医学的过程中,欣赏设计标准已经综合广泛地被提出来了。
Table 2, Medical Implant Design,
illustrates this in a simple manner.
<
/p>
表

,一种很简单的方式描述了医疗植入
体的设计。
The
development
of
design
criteria
begins
with
the
identification
of
patient needs.
设计标准的发展开始于病人需要的认同。
We
must
remember
that
our
overall
goal
is
to
provide
biomedical
materials,
prostheses,
medical
devices,
and
other
constructs
that
will
enhance the health and
welfare of patients.
我们必须意识
到,
我们总的目标是向病人提供可以提高健康和福利的
生物医用
材料、假体、医疗设备和其他构造。
With
the
identification
of
patient
needs,
concepts
are
then
developed
based
on
known
anatomical
and
physiological
processes
and
their
alteration
by
disease
processes
that
are
integrated
to
begin
the
design
process.
随着对病人需要
的识别,基于了解解剖和生理过程的观念已开始发
展。通过病理过程而改变它们已经和开
始设计的过程结合在一起。
Following from
this, configuration, prototype, manufacture and
assembly,
test/use,
reliability,
and
clinical
trials
follow
from
the
original
design
criteria.
从这以后,<
/p>
由初始设计标准产生了构型、
原型、
加工
组装、
测试使用、
可靠性以及临床试验。
It
is
important
to
note
that
the
last
factor
in
medical
implant
design
is
implant retrieval and evaluation.
在医疗体植入设计中,
注意最后一个
因素,
即移植的检索和评价是很
重要的。
Implant retrieval and evaluation
permits the identification of modes and
mechanisms of failure or success that
ultimately in turn provide feedback
information
for
further
development
of
the
concept
based
on
additional
design criteria
obtained from implant retrieval and evaluation.
p>
移植的检索和评价可以鉴别模型成功与否,
最终为基于从移植检索和
评价中得到额外设计标准观念的进一步发展提供反馈信息。
The author acknowledges the significant
contribution of Dr. John Watson,
Department of Bioengineering,
University of California-San Diego, La
Jolla, CA, who originally developed
this construct of medical implant
design during his tenure at the
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
in Bethesda, MD.
