Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2The Influence of Plastic Deformation Mechanisms on the Adhesion Behavior and Collagen Formation in Osteoblast Cells(Springer International Publishing, 2018) Uzer, B.; Monte, Felipe Alves Do; Awad, Kamal R.; Aswath, Pranesh; Varanasi, Venu Gopal; Canadinc, DemircanIn many of biomedical applications, the implant might get in direct contact with the bone tissue where the osteogenesis needs to be stimulated. If osteoblasts can not successfully attach on the implant surface, the bone might resorb and implant can fail. In the current study MC3T3 cells were cultured on the 316L stainless steel samples which were deformed up to four different strain levels (5, 15, 25 and 35%) to activate plastic deformation mechanisms (slip and twinning) in different volume fractions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that cells adhered and spread significantly on the 25 and 35% deformed samples owing to the greater surface roughness and energy provided by the increased density of micro-deformation mechanisms which promoted the formation of focal contacts. In addition, significant amount of collagen formation was observed on the sample deformed up to 25% of strain which can be due to the ideal match of the surface roughness and collagen molecules. Overall these results show that material’s microstructure can be manipulated through plastic deformation mechanisms in order to enhance the cell response and collagen deposition. As a result long lasting implants could be obtained which would eliminate additional surgical interventions and provide a successful treatment. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Modulating the Surface Properties of Metallic Implants and the Response of Breast Cancer Cells by Surface Relief Induced via Bulk Plastic Deformation(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-05-07) Uzer, BenayMicro/nanoscale textured surfaces have presented promising tissue-implant integration via increasing surface roughness, energy, and wettability. Recent studies indicate that surface texture imparted on the metallic implants via surface relief induced with simple bulk plastic deformation methods (e.g., tension or compression tests) does result in enhanced cell response. Considering these recent findings, this study presents a thorough investigation of the effects of surface relief on surface properties of implants and cell adhesion. Experiments are conducted on the samples subjected to interrupted tensile tests up to the plastic strains of 5, 15, 25, and 35%. Main findings from these experiments suggest that, as the plastic deformation level increases up to 35% from the undeformed (control) level, (1) average surface roughness (R-a) increases from 17.58 to 595.29 nm; (2) water contact angle decreases from 84.28 to 58.07 degrees; (3) surface free energy (SFE) increases from 36.06 to 48.89 mJ/m(2); and (4) breast cancer cells show 2.4-fold increased number of attachment. Increased surface roughness indicates the distorted topography via surface relief and leads to increased wettability, consistent with Wenzel's theory. The higher levels of SFE observed were related to high-energy regions provided via activation of strengthening mechanisms, which increased in volume fraction concomitant with plastic deformation. Eventually, the displayed improvements in surface properties have increased the number of breast cancer cell attachments. These findings indicate that surface relief induced upon plastic deformation processes could be utilized in the design of implants for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes through capturing breast cancer cells on the material surface.
