Activation of Toll-Like Receptor 9 Impairs Blood Flow Recovery After Hind-Limb Ischemia

Background: Peripheral artery disease causes significant functional disability and results in impaired quality of life. Ischemic tissue injury releases various endogenous ligands for Toll-like receptors (TLRs), suggesting the involvement of TLRs in blood flow recovery. However, the role of TLR9, whi...
