Patients with PAD have an inferior prognosis and reduced limb function, when compared with patients without PAD.3 Very few effective therapies have been identified, in part, because the key biologic pathways associated with functional impairment remain unclear. Current treatments include supervised and home-based walking exercise to improve the mobility in patients with PAD.4,5 A better understanding of the underlying pathological mechanisms of skeletal muscle damage underlying PAD may help identify new therapeutic opportunities
