To determine whether deficient microglial activation in TLR2−/− mice after stroke (as shown in the results above) induced changes in profiles of pro-inflammatory cytokines, we used a standard mouse cytokine antibody array technique to measure over 40 different cytokines from ischemic brains of WT and TLR2−/− mice [3,29]. The gene discussed is TLR2; the disease is stroke disorder.
