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 elastic fibers, which maintain the integrity and mechanical properties of the material, rapidly degraded during the early stages of implantation. In contrast, the use of CD28-SA antibodies to increase the number of Tregs recruited by dECM promoted constructive remodeling, resulting in a decreased inflammatory response at the material edge, thinning of the surrounding fibrous connective tissue, uniform infiltration of host cells, and significantly improved tissue remodeling scores. The number of M2 macrophages increased whereas that of M1 macrophages decreased. Moreover, Treg-conditioned medium further enhanced material-induced M2 macrophage polarization in vitro. Overall, Treg is an important cell type that influences constructive remodeling of the dECM. Such findings contribute to the design of next-generation biomaterials to optimize the remodeling and regeneration of dECM materials.
