Abstract
Cardiac resident macrophages (CRMs) are essential in maintaining the balance of the immune homeostasis in the heart. One of the main factors in the progression of cardiovascular diseases, such as myocarditis, myocardial infarction(MI), and heart failure(HF), is the imbalance in the regulatory mechanisms of CRMs. Recent studies have reported novel heterogeneity and spatiotemporal complexity of CRMs, and their role in maintaining cardiac immune homeostasis and treating cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we focus on the functions of CRMs, including immune surveillance, immune phagocytosis, and immune metabolism, and explore the impact of CRM's homeostasis imbalance on cardiac injury and cardiac repair. We also discuss the therapeutic approaches linked to CRMs. The immunomodulatory strategies targeting CRMs may be a therapeutic approach for the treatment of cardiovascular disease.

[PMID: 37597837 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.08.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/21/2023]
Abstract
Although most cases of myocarditis are self-limiting with a gradual improvement in cardiac function, the involvement of myocarditis in sudden cardiac death among children and young adults remains substantial, with rates of 3-17 % and 8.6-12 %, respectively. Moreover, the risk of developing chronic dilated cardiomyopathy ranges from 21 % to 30 % in all cases confirmed by biopsy. Current therapeutic strategies for myocarditis and its complications range from standard supportive care for heart failure and arrhythmias to etiologically oriented, case-based therapeutic options. For example, immunosuppression is indicated only in certain forms of acute myocarditis with clinical or endomyocardial biopsy evidence of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced myocarditis and autoimmune diseases, including giant cell myocarditis, eosinophilic myocarditis, vasculitis, or cardiac sarcoidosis. However, our views on myocarditis treatment have changed considerably over the past two decades, thanks to the emergence of regenerative cells/tissues as well as drug and gene delivery systems. Cell-based therapies are now growing in popularity in any field of medicine. Studies evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of different stem cells in the treatment of acute myocarditis and its chronic complications have shown that although the experimental characteristics varied from study to study, in general, these strategies reduced inflammation and myocardial fibrosis while preventing myocarditis-induced systolic dysfunction and adverse remodeling in animal models.

Abstract
Implantable biomaterials trigger foreign body reactions (FBRs), which reduces the functional life of medical devices and prevents effective tissue regeneration. Although existing therapeutic approaches can circumvent collagen-rich fibrotic encapsulation secondary to FBRs, they disrupt native tissue repair. Herein, a new surface engineering strategy in which an apoptotic-mimetic, immunomodulatory, phosphatidylserine liposome (PSL) is released from an implant coating to induce the formation of a macrophage phenotype that mitigates FBRs and improves tissue healing is described. PSL-multilayers constructed on implant surfaces via the layer-by-layer method release PSLs over a 1-month period. In rat muscles, poly(etheretherketone) (PEEK), a nondegradable polymer implant model, induces FBRs with dense fibrotic scarring under an aberrant cellular profile that recruits high levels of inflammatory infiltrates, foreign body giant cells (FBGCs), scar-forming myofibroblasts, and inflammatory M1-like macrophages but negligible amounts of anti-inflammatory M2-like phenotypes. However, the PSL-multilayer coating markedly diminishes these detrimental signatures by shifting the macrophage phenotype. Unlike other therapeutics, PSL-multilayered coatings also stimulate muscle regeneration. This study demonstrates that PSL-multilayered coatings are effective in eliminating FBRs and promoting regeneration, hence offering potent and broad applications for implantable biomaterials.

Abstract
Numerous studies have demonstrated that gut microbiota plays an important role in the development and treatment of different cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension, heart failure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and atherosclerosis. Furthermore, evidence from recent studies has shown that gut microbiota contributes to the development of myocarditis. Myocarditis is an inflammatory disease that often results in myocardial damage. Myocarditis is a common cause of sudden cardiac death in young adults. The incidence of myocarditis and its associated dilated cardiomyopathy has been increasing yearly. Myocarditis has gained significant attention on social media due to its association with both COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccinations. However, the current therapeutic options for myocarditis are limited. In addition, little is known about the potential therapeutic targets of myocarditis. In this study, we review (1) the evidence on the gut-heart axis, (2) the crosslink between gut microbiota and the immune system, (3) the association between myocarditis and the immune system, (4) the impact of gut microbiota and its metabolites on myocarditis, (5) current strategies for modulating gut microbiota, (6) challenges and future directions for targeted gut microbiota in the treatment of myocarditis. The approach of targeting the gut microbiota in myocarditis is still in its infancy, and this is the study to explore the gut microbiota-immune system-myocarditis axis. Our findings are expected to pave the way for the use of gut microbiota as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of myocarditis.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction resulting from dysregulated host responses to infection. Macrophages play significant roles in host against pathogens and the immunopathogenesis of sepsis, such as phagocytosis of pathogens, secretion of cytokines, and phenotype reprogramming. However, the rapid progression of sepsis impairs macrophage function, and conventional antimicrobial and supportive treatment are not sufficient to restore dysregulated macrophages roles. Nanoparticles own unique physicochemical properties, surface functions, localized surface plasmon resonance phenomenon, passive targeting in vivo, good biocompatibility and biodegradability, are accessible for biomedical applications. Once into the body, NPs are recognized by host immune system. Macrophages are phagocytes in innate immunity dedicated to the recognition of foreign substances, including nanoparticles, with which an immune response subsequently occurs. Various design strategies, such as surface functionalization, have been implemented to manipulate the recognition of nanoparticles by monocytes/macrophages, and engulfed by them to regulate their function in sepsis, compensating for the shortcomings of sepsis traditional methods. The review summarizes the mechanism of nanomaterials targeting macrophages and recent advances in nanomedicine targeting macrophages in sepsis, which provides good insight for exploring macrophage-based nano-management in sepsis.

Abstract
An appropriate immune microenvironment, governed by macrophages, is essential for rapid tissue regeneration after biomaterial implantation. The macrophage phenotypes, M1 (inflammatory) and M2 (anti-inflammatory/healing), exert opposing effects on the repair of various tissues. In this study, a new strategy to promote tissue repair and tissue-to-biomaterial integration by M1-to-M2 macrophage transition using artificial apoptotic cell mimetics (phosphatidylserine liposomes; PSLs) was developed using bone as a model tissue. Titanium was also selected as a model substrate material because it is widely used for dental and orthopedic implants. Titanium implants were functionalized with multilayers via layer-by-layer assembly of cationic protamine and negatively charged PSLs that were chemically stabilized to prevent disruption of lipid bilayers. Samples carrying PSL multilayers could drive M1-type macrophages into M2-biased phenotypes, resulting in a dramatic change in macrophage secretion for tissue regeneration. In a rat femur implantation model, the PSL-multilayer-coated implant displayed augmented de novo bone formation and bone-to-implant integration, associated with an increased M1-to-M2-like phenotypic transition. This triggered the proper generation and activation of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts relative to their uncoated counterparts. This study demonstrates the benefit of local M1-to-M2 macrophage polarization induced by PSL-multilayers constructed on implants for potent bone regeneration and bone-to-implant integration. The results of this study may help in the design of new immunomodulatory biomaterials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Effective strategies for tissue regeneration are essential in the clinical practice. The macrophage phenotypes, M1 (inflammatory) and M2 (anti-inflammatory/healing), exert opposing effects on the repair of various tissues. Artificially produced phosphatidylserine-containing liposomes (PSLs) can induce M2 macrophage polarization by mimicking the inverted plasma membranes of apoptotic cells. This study demonstrates the advantages of local M1-to-M2 macrophage polarization induced by PSL-multilayers constructed on implants for effective bone regeneration and osseointegration (bone-to-implant integration). Mechanistically, M2 macrophages promote osteogenesis but inhibit osteoclastogenesis, and M1 macrophages vice versa. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the design of new immunomodulatory biomaterials for regenerative medicine because it is the first to validate the benefit of PSLs for tissue regeneration.
