Abstract
Macrophages play critical roles in inflammatory initiation, development, resolution and cardiac regeneration of myocarditis. However, Reg3β, as a member of regenerating family of proteins, contributes to dedifferentiation of injury cardiomyocytes as well as cardiac function remodeling. It remains unclear whether Reg3β was associated with macrophages reprogramming during autoimmune myocarditis. Our results showed that Reg3β could effectively recruit macrophages, promoted their proliferation and phagocytosis, and facilitated their polarized into M2 macrophages. Macrophage, especially M1 phenotype contributed to Reg3β production by cardiomyocytes. Our data also indicated that Reg3β was involved in self-protection mechanism following cardiac injury or stress. This suggests that Reg3β might be a critically protective factor of myocardium.
