Plasma Energy-Balance Metabolites Discriminate Asymptomatic Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:This study aims to investigate the effect of feeding low-fat diet (LFD) to diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice lacking TLR5 (TLR5(-/-)), which have a tendency to develop glucose intolerance with increased adiposity, compared to that in C57BL/6 mice. RESULTS:TLR5(-/-) and C57BL/6 male mice were divided into thre...
