Preconditioning by toll-like receptor 2 agonist Pam3CSK4 reduces CXCL1-dependent leukocyte recruitment in murine myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury*

Preconditioning by TLR2 agonist Pam3CSK4 reduces myocardial infarct size after myocardial ischemia/reperfusion. One of the mechanisms involved is a diminished chemokine release from cardiomyocytes, which subsequently limits leukocyte infiltration.
