Cardiac transplantation remains the only true “cure” for end-stage disease. However, challenges causing by insufficient donor heart and gradually function losses due to transplant rejection highlight the demand of de-novo therapies. Macrophages (Mφ) are one of the constituent cells within heart, with extremely high plasticity, which can be transformed into pro-inflammatory M1 and reparative M2 phenotypes, depend on the stimulation of the microenvironment, in order to participate in the whole healing process post-myocardial infarction (MI). Researches found that zebrafish and neonatal mice will lose their cardiac regeneration capacity after Mφ depletion, showing that Mφ is a potential therapeutic target. This study reviews the healing process post-cardiac injury, focus on the phenotyping and function of Mφ, and attempts to identify potential therapy and outstanding issues through comparing the cardiac healing processes between regenerative and non-regenerative animal models. In conclusion, it was found that, during healing process post-MI, neonatal mice only expand the cardiac resident M2-like-Mφ with fewer recruitment of neutrophils (NE) in heart, while adult mice mainly recruits M1-Mφ and more NE. Although reducing M1-Mφ recruitment is beneficial, excessive may compromises cardiac healing and increased fibrosis. Thus, increasing M2-Mφ, which can promote NE clearance, extracellular matrix remodeling, and angiogenesis may be more therapeutically potential rather than reducing M1-Mφ. However, according to current theories, expanding the M2-Mφ population without affecting M1-Mφ may be difficult. Therefore, deeper understanding of the recruitment and phenotyping mechanism of Mφ has become one of the major goal of cardiac regeneration therapy.巨噬細胞心臟再生心血管疾病MacrophgesCardiac regenerationCardiovascular diseasesthesis
