CGRP sensory neurons promote tissue healing via neutrophils and macrophages
The immune system has a critical role in orchestrating tissue healing. As a result, regenerative strategies that control immune components have proved effective1,2. This is particularly relevant when immune dysregulation that results from conditions such as diabetes or advanced age impairs tissue healing following injury2,3. Nociceptive sensory neurons have a crucial role as immunoregulators and exert both protective and harmful effects depending on the context4–12. However, how neuro–immune interactions affect tissue repair and regeneration following acute injury is unclear. Here ...
