Popis: Calcium phosphate (CaP) bioceramics are important for tissue regeneration and immune response, yet how CaP bioceramics influence these biological processes remains unclear. Recently, the role of immune cells in biomaterial-mediated regeneration, especially macrophages, has been well concerned. CD301b+ macrophages were a new subset of macrophages we have discovered, which were required for bioceramics-mediated bone regeneration. Nevertheless, the impact of CD301b+ macrophages on angiogenesis, which is a vital prerequisite to bone formation is yet indistinct. Herein, we found that CD301b+ macrophages were closely correlated to angiogenesis of CaP bioceramics. Additionally, depletion of CD301b+ macrophages led to the failure of angiogenesis. We showed that store-operated Ca2+ entry and calcineurin signals regulated the VEGF expression of CD301b+ macrophages via the NFATc1/VEGF axis. Inhibition of calcineurin effectively impaired angiogenesis via decreasing the infiltration of CD301b+ macrophages. These findings provided a potential immunomodulatory strategy to optimize the integration of angiogenesis and bone tissue engineering scaffold materials.
