Interleukin‐37 and Dendritic Cells Treated With Interleukin‐37 Plus Troponin I Ameliorate Cardiac Remodeling After Myocardial Infarction by Ruirui Zhu, Haitao Sun, Kunwu Yu, Yucheng Zhong, Huairui Shi, Yuzhen Wei, Xin Su, Wenbin Xu, Quan Luo, Fangyuan Zhang, Zhengfeng Zhu, Kai Meng, Xiaoqi Zhao, Yuzhou Liu, Yi Mao, Peng Cheng, Xiaobo Mao, Qiutang Zeng

“…Interestingly, we also found that adoptive transfer of these antigen‐loaded tDCs markedly increased the number of regulatory T cells in the spleen, attenuated the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the infarct hearts, decreased myocardial fibrosis, and improved cardiac function. Conclusions Our results reveal a beneficial role of IL‐37 or tDCs treated with IL‐37 plus TnI in post‐MI remodeling that is possibly mediated by reestablishing a tolerogenic immune response, indicating that IL‐37 or adoptive transfer of IL‐37 plus TnI–treated tDCs may be a novel therapeutic strategy for ventricular remodeling after MI.…”
