Tissue-resident CCR2⁺ macrophage TREM-1/3 signaling is necessary for monocyte and neutrophil recruitment to injured hearts.

ABSTRACT: Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) has been shown to amplify inflammatory signals, such as Toll-like receptor signaling, after infection and sterile injury. While previous studies have demonstrated that TREM-1 activation in circulating immune cells promotes injury, the role of TREM-1 signaling in tissue-resident cells in the context of sterile inflammation remains poorly understood. Here, we used a cardiac transplantation model to dissect how Trem1/3 expression on heart-resident cells regulates sterile inflammation. TREM-1 is expressed in heart-resident C-C chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2)⁺ macrophages in mice and humans. TREM-1/3 signaling in tissue-resident CCR2⁺ macrophages promotes C-C motif chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3) production and is critical fo
