摘要

Chronic intestinal inflammation might result from persistent infection or from a defect in down-regulating an immunological response to the normal antigenic load within the intestine. Since it is now cleat that there is a genetic component for IBD, especially Crohn's disease, it is conceivable that mutations in genes involved in microbiological defence, in antigen presentation, immunoregulation, or in epithelial barrier function might underlie disease pathogenesis, especially if the mutations led to loss of function. For Crohn's disease, mutations in the N0D2 gene, located on chromosome 16, are present in about 40% of patients with ileal disease. The resulting NOD2 protein fails to bind to muramyl dipep-tide, a component of peptidoglycan, and hence there is a failure to activate NFkB. It is not clear how this renders patients susceptible to Crohn's disease, but the recent observations that NOD2 is expressed, not only in monocytes, but also in Paneth cells, and that there is failure to synthesize defensins 5 and 6 from Paneth cells in patients with N0D2 mutations, may suggest a major defect in microbiological defence in these patients.
