However, whether and how the tissue environment controls these local immune responses has remained poorly understood. We sought to investigate how antigen-specific T-helper cells differentiate under myocardial milieu\u2019s influence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We used a transgenic T cell receptor (TCR-M) model and major histocompatibility complex-II tetramers, both myosin-specific, combined with single-cell transcriptomics (single-cell RNA sequencing [scRNA-seq]) and functional phenotyping to elucidate how the antigen-specific CD4\n                      <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                      T cells differentiate in the murine infarcted myocardium and influence tissue repair. Additionally, we transferred proinflammatory versus regulatory predifferentiated TCR-M-cells to dissect how they specially contribute to post\u2013myocardial infarction inflammation.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Flow cytometry and scRNA-\/TCR-seq analyses revealed that transferred TCR-M cells acquired an induced regulatory phenotype (induced regulatory T cell) in the infarcted myocardium and blunted local inflammation. Myocardial TCR-M cells differentiated into 2 main lineages enriched with either cell activation and profibrotic transcripts (eg,\n                      <jats:italic>Tgfb1<\/jats:italic>\n                      ) or suppressor immune checkpoints (eg,\n                      <jats:italic>Pdcd1<\/jats:italic>\n                      ), which we also found in human myocardial tissue. These cells produced high levels of LAP (latency-associated peptide) and inhibited IL-17 (interleukin-17) responses. Endogenous myosin-specific T-helper cells, identified using genetically barcoded tetramers, also accumulated in infarcted hearts and exhibited a regulatory phenotype. Notably, TCR-M cells that were predifferentiated toward a regulatory phenotype in vitro maintained stable in vivo FOXP3 (Forkhead box P3) expression and anti-inflammatory activity whereas T\n                      <jats:sub>H<\/jats:sub>\n                      17 partially converted toward a regulatory phenotype in the injured myocardium. Overall, the myosin-specific Tregs dampened post\u2013myocardial infarction inflammation, suppressed neighboring T cells, and were associated with improved cardiac function.\n
