Although it has been well established that osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (bMSCs) as well as osteoclastic differentiation of macrophages can be manipulated by the nanostructure of biomaterial surfaces, the interactions among the effects of the surface on immune cells and bMSCs remained unknown. Therefore, in this study, the osteogenic behaviors and secretion of osteoclastogenesis-related cytokines of human bMSCs on TiO2 nanotubular (NT) surfaces in conditioned medium (CM) generated by macrophages cultured on the respective NT surfaces (NT-CM) were analyzed. Although bMSCs showed consistent osteogenic behaviors on the NT5 and NT20 surfaces in both standard culture medium and both types of NT-CM, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix mineralization were partially impeded on the NT20 surface in NT20-CM and bMSC cytokine secretions on the NT20 surface in NT20-CM elicited remarkable multinuclear giant cell and osteoclast formation compared with that observed on the NT5 surface in NT5-CM. After implantation in vivo, mineralized bone formation was significantly delayed around the NT20 implant compared with the NT5 implant, but both surfaces contributed to good bone formation after 12 weeks. The results obtained in this study advance our understanding of the confounding influence of the implant surface nanostructure, macrophage inflammatory response, and osteogenic differentiation of bMSCs as well as the retro-regulative effects of bMSCs on the osteoclastic differentiation of macrophages, and the culture system based on different NT surfaces and CM generated on the respective surfaces may provide a systematic research model for evaluating the performance of endosseous implants as well as a prospective approach for improving implant osseointegration via immune-regulation.
