T cells modulate IL-4 expression by eosinophil recruitment within decellularized scaffolds to repair nerve defects

Decellularized nerve, or acellular nerve allografts (ANAs), are an increasingly used alternative to nerve autografts to repair nerve gaps to facilitate regeneration. The adaptive immune system, specifically T cells, plays a role in promoting regeneration upon these ANA scaffolds. However, how T cells promote regeneration across ANAs is not clear. Here, we show that T cells accumulate within ANAs repairing nerve gaps resulting in regulation of...
