Cardiac fibrosis, a common pathophysiology associated with various heart diseases, occurs from the excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) 1 . Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) are the primary cells that produce, degrade, and remodel ECM during homeostasis and tissue repair 2 . Upon injury, CFs gain plasticity to differentiate into myofibroblasts 3 and adipocyte-like 4,5 and osteoblast-like 6 cells, promoting fibrosis and impairing heart function 7 . How CFs maintain their cell state during homeostasis and adapt plasticity upon injury are not well defined. Recent studies have shown that Hippo signalling in CFs regulates cardiac fibrosis and inflammation 8-11 . Here, we used single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and spatially resolved transcriptomic profiling (ST) to investigate how the cell state was altered in the absence of Hippo signaling and how Hippo-deficient CFs interact with macrophages during cardiac fibrosis. We found that Hippo-deficient CFs differentiate into osteochondroprogenitors (OCPs), suggesting that Hippo restricts CF plasticity. Furthermore, Hippo-deficient CFs colocalized with macrophages, suggesting their intercellular communications. Indeed, we identified several ligand-receptor pairs between the Hippo-deficient CFs and macrophages. Blocking the Hippo-deficient CF-induced CSF1 signaling abolished macrophage expansion. Interestingly, blocking macrophage expansion also reduced OCP differentiation of Hippo-deficient CFs, indicating that macrophages promote CF plasticity.
