The lung is particularly exposed to airborne and blood-borne insults. The mechanisms underlying lung tissue repair are therefore of fundamental biological importance and have critical implications for the prevention life-threatening inflammatory and tissue-damaging responses. Lung-resident tissue macrophages and inflammatory monocyte-derived macrophages (InfMoMac) are key players in the maintenance of homeostasis, repair responses and disease pathogenesis. Yet, to date, the complexity of lung macrophage responses after injury is far from being resolved. Here, we propose to explore InfMoMac trajectories and functional diversity in an unprecedented manner. To this end, we will use mouse…
