The foreign body response (FBR) to nitric oxide (NO)-releasing subcutaneous implants was compared between healthy and streptozotocin-induced diabetic swine by evaluating inflammation, collagen capsule formation, and angiogenesis. Steel wire substrates were first modified with polyurethane membranes capable of diverse NO-release kinetics (NO fluxes and release durations of 0.8–630.0 pmol cm−2 s−1 and 2–13 d, respectively). The NO-releasing materials were implanted in the subcutis for 3, 10, or 25 d for histological and immunohistochemical evaluation of the FBR. A delayed, more severe inflammatory response to control (i.e., non-NO-releasing) implants was observed in diabetic pigs relative to healthy swine. Regardless of the animal disease state, each NO-releasing implant tested elicited reduced inflammation compared to controls at both 3 and 10 d. However, only the NO-release materials capable of releasing low NO fluxes (0.8–3.3 pmol cm−2 s−1) for 7–13 d durations mitigated the inflammatory response at 25 d. Using immunohistochemical staining for the endothelial cell surface marker CD-31, we also observed poor blood vessel development at non-NO-releasing implants in diabetic swine. Relative to controls, NO-releasing implants with the longest NO-release duration (13 d) increased blood vessel densities by 47.1 and 70.4% in the healthy and diabetic pigs, respectively. In the healthy model, tissues surrounding the long NO-release materials contained sparse amounts of collagen, whereas implants with shorter NO-release durations (2, 3, and 7 d) were characterized with a dense collagen encapsulation layer, similar to controls. Collagen deposition in diabetic swine was inhibited, and unaffected by NO. These results emphasize several key differences in the FBR in the setting of acute onset diabetes. The observation that NO release counteracts the more severe FBR in diabetic swine while simultaneously promoting tissue integration may help guide the design of medical implants (e.g., glucose sensors) with improved performance for diabetes management.
