Hyperexpression of NOD2 in intestinal mast cells of Crohn's disease patients : preferential expression of inflammatory cell-recruiting molecules via NOD2 in mast cells

NOD2, an intracellular sensor of bacteria-derived muramyl dipeptide (MDP) has been implicated as a key player in intestinal immune health and disease. Mast cells (MCs) have been reported to be increased in the gut of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. However, NOD2 expression and its role in...
