Annotation rationales
Repair-associated resident macrophages are tissue-adapted phagocytes with anti-inflammatory, matrix-interacting and trophic programs.
Functional implications
They remove damaged material, restrain inflammation and support vascular, stromal and parenchymal regeneration during tissue recovery.
