Alumina Ceramic Exacerbates the Inflammatory Disease by Activation of Macrophages and T Cells
(1) Background: Aluminum oxide (Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) ceramic is one of the materials used for artificial joints, and it has been known that their fine particles (FPs) are provided by the wear of the ceramic. Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3 </sub>FPs have...
