Contribution of Tregs to the promotion of constructive remodeling after decellularized extracellular matrix material implantation.

ABSTRACT: Host remodeling of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) material through the appropriate involvement of immune cells is essential for achieving functional organ/tissue regeneration. As many studies have focused on the role of macrophages, only few have evaluated the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in dECM remodeling. In this study, we used a mouse model of traumatic muscle injury to determine the role of Tregs in the constructive remodeling of vascular-derived dECM. According to the results, a certain number of Tregs could be recruited after dECM implantation. Notably, using anti-CD25 to reduce the number of Tregs recruited by the dECM was significantly detrimental to material remodeling based on a significant reduction in the number of M2 macrophages. In addition, collagen and el
