Toll-like receptor 4 and NOD2/CARD15 mutations in Hungarian patients with Crohn's disease: Phenotype-genotype correlations

open access: yes, 2005
AIM: To determine common NOD2/CARD15 mutations and TLR4 D299G polymorphism in Hungarian patients with CD. METHODS: A total of 527 unrelated patients with CD (male/female: 265/262, age: 37.1 (SD 7.6) years) and 200 healthy subjects were included.

Age-of-onset-dependent influence of NOD2 gene variants on disease behaviour and treatment in Crohn's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Influence of genetic variants in the NOD2 gene may play a more important role in disease activity, behaviour and treatment of pediatric- than adult-onset Crohn's disease (CD).

IRGM variants and susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease in the German population. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genome-wide association studies identified the autophagy gene IRGM to be strongly associated with Crohn's disease (CD) but its impact in ulcerative colitis (UC), its phenotypic effects and potential epistatic interactions with other IBD susceptibility ...

Molecular Signatures of Peripheral and Central Dental Pulp Subpopulations in Response to Streptococcus mutans: A Bulk RNA‐Seq Analysis

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, Volume 59, Issue 7, Page 1402-1415, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The dental pulp is an immunologically active tissue that responds dynamically to cariogenic challenge. Peripheral pulp cells adjacent to dentine encounter bacterial stimuli earlier than cells located in the central pulp. To investigate signalling and immune interactions, this study profiled the transcriptomes of dentine‐adherent cells ...

Polyphosphates Attenuate Interleukin‐12 Production in Macrophages Infected With Legionella pneumophila

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Legionella pneumophila infection leads to the release of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns, which recruits the adaptor protein MYD88, initiating both activating (e.g., NF‐κB) and inhibitory (e.g., PI3K/AKT) signaling pathways that regulate IL‐12 gene expression.

Nod2-Nodosome in a Cell-Free System: Implications in Pathogenesis and Drug Discovery for Blau Syndrome and Early-Onset Sarcoidosis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2016
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein (Nod) 2 is an intracellular pattern recognition receptor, which recognizes muramyl dipeptide (N-Acetylmuramyl-L-Alanyl-D-Isoglutamine: MDP), a bacterial peptidoglycan component, and makes a NF ...

NOD2 Deficiency Protects against Cardiac Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction in Mice

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013
Background/Aims: Although the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction (MI) is multifactorial, activation of innate immune system to induce inflammation has emerged as a key pathophysiological process in MI.

Oil‐Coated Nanoplastics Induce Rapid Membrane Disruption and Severe Intestinal Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
Oil‐rich food contact dramatically amplifies MNP release from plastic takeout containers, producing oil‐coated nanoplastics with altered surface properties and rapid membrane‐disruptive effects. These particles cause severe intestinal barrier damage and immune dysfunction in mice, and risk modeling suggests that long‐term gastrointestinal burdens may ...

NOD2: Ethnic and geographic differences

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006
Investigations into the inheritance of the three risk alleles R702W, G908R and 1007fsInsC in NOD2 associated with susceptibility to Crohn's disease have demonstrated a remarkable amount of heterogeneity across ethnicities and populations, with regional variation across Europe for example, suggesting local founder effects.

Development and functional adaptation of intestinal macrophages across the lifespan

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 6, 2026.
This article discusses intestinal macrophage development, including the influence of developmental origins and life stages; ontogeny and functional heterogeneity; preclinical and clinical evidence. Abstract Macrophages of the gastrointestinal system are central regulators of gut development, homeostasis and disease, yet their origin, functional ...
