Abstract excerpt
Aims: Myocardial infarction (MI) causes a massive increase of macrophages in the heart, which serve various non-redundant functions for cardiac repair. The identities of signals controlling recruitment of functionally distinct cardiac macrophages to sites of injury are only partially known. Previous work identified Regenerating islet-derived protein 3 beta (Reg3β) as a novel factor directing macrophages to sites...
