Increased TLR2 expression in patients with type 1 diabetes: evidenced risk of microalbuminuria
Pediatric Diabetes, 04/26/2012
Ururahy MAG et al. – Increased mRNA expression of TLR2, MyD88, and pro–inflammatory cytokines in leukocytes of patients with childhood onset type 1 diabetes indicates the development of a TLR2–mediated pro–inflammatory process, which may also be associated with an early inflammatory process in the kidney and the occurrence of microalbuminuria.
