Augmented TLR2 expression on monocytes in both human Kawasaki disease and a mouse model of coronary arteritis.
<h4>Background</h4>Kawasaki disease (KD) of unknown immunopathogenesis is an acute febrile systemic vasculitis and the leading cause of acquired heart diseases in childhood. To search for a better strategy for the prevention and treatment of KD, this study compared and validated human KD...
