Animal experiments on hernia repair demonstrated better biocompatibility of light-weight polypropylene meshes. However, implanted medical devices trigger a variety of adverse tissue responses, such as inflammation, fibrosis, infection and thrombosis, but the mechanisms involved in such responses remain largely unknown. This study aimed to determine the effect of transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) on host tolerance by quantification of foreign body reaction in cultured fibroblasts depending on the amount and composition of implanted material used for hernia repair.
