TL;DR: TLR-4 might play a more important role than TLR-2 in atherogenesis, especially in ACS, according to the expression level in patients with ACS, as compared with patients with stable angina.
Comparison of the Reperfusion Efficacy of Thrombus Aspiration With and Without Distal Protection During Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Shinji Satoh,Hiroko Inoue,Soichiro Omura,Emiko Ejima,Koutastu Shimozono,Makiko Hayashi,Takahiro Mori,Katsuhiko Takenaka,Natsumi Kawamura,Kotaro Numaguchi,Etsuo Mori,Akemi Asoh,Toshihiro Nakamura,Koji Hiyamuta +13 more
TL;DR: Thrombus aspiration with distal protection may be more effective in initially restoring the coronary blood flow than throm Bus aspiration alone, although it may not be superior to throm bus aspiration in preventing LV remodeling or preserving the LV function in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
