Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether TLR4, TLR2, MyD88 or TRIF might be associated withonset of delayed paraplegia after spinal cord ischemia in mice. In our results, either TLR2 KO- or TRIF KO-mice could not show delayed paraplegia. In contrast, both TLR4 KO- and MyD88 KO-mice displayed delayed paraplegia after spinal cord ischemia. These results suggested that either TLR4 or MyD88 should be necessary in onset of delayed paraplegia after spinal cord ischemia.
