Immune-mediated cardiac development and regeneration

Abstract:
The complex interplay between the immune and cardiovascular systems during development, homeostasis and regeneration represents a rapidly evolving field in cardiac biology. Single cell technologies, spatial mapping and computational analysis have revolutionised our understanding of the diversity and functional specialisation of immune cells within the heart. From the earliest stages of cardiogenesis, where primitive macrophages guide heart tube formation, to the complex choreography of inflammation and its resolution during regeneration, immune cells emerge as central orchestrators of cardiac fate. Translating these fundamental insights into clinical applications represents a major challenge and opportunity for the field. In this Review, we decode the immunological blueprint of heart development and regeneration to transform cardiovascular disease treatment and unlock the regenerative capacity of the human heart.
