“…We found that expression of total TLR2 was significantly increased in intestinal mucosa from UC patients in comparison to CD and controls, although the expression of TLR2 mRNA was not significantly different among groups. While this finding may appear contradictory, similar observations were reported in Sjögren Syndrome for BP230 protein levels (Gonzalez et al 2011). According to these studies, in Saccharomyces, a difference between relative transcription and translation efficiency has been documented (Tuller et al 2007), suggesting that the cell preserves a global equilibrium between the processes.…”
