Abstract: Biomaterials are extensively used as replacements for damaged tissue with bioactive glasses standing out as bone substitutes for their intrinsic osteogenic properties. However, biomaterial implantation has the following risks: the development of implant-associated infections and adverse immune responses. Thus, incorporating metallic ions with known antimicrobial properties can prevent infection, but should also modulate the immune response. Therefore, we selected silver, copper and tellurium as doping for bioactive glasses and evaluated the immunophenotype and cytokine profile of human T-cells cultured on top of these discs. Results showed that silver significantly decreased cell viability, copper increased the T helper (Th)-1 cell percentage while decreasing that of Th17, while tellurium did not affect either cell viability or immune response, as evaluated via multiparametric flow cytometry. Multiplex cytokines assay showed that IL-5 levels were decreased in the copper-doped discs, compared with its undoped control, while IL-10 tended to be lower in the doped glass, compared with the control (plastic) while undoped condition showed lower expression of IL-13 and increased MCP-1 and MIP-1β secretion. Overall, we hypothesized that the Th1/Th17 shift, and specific cytokine expression indicated that T-cells might cross-activate other cell types, potentially macrophages and eosinophils, in response to the scaffolds.
