Blood translocation of bacterial-DNA has been described in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). The host's immune cell types cooperate to respond against bacterial insults. Some antimicrobial peptides are inducible after culture with bacterial products and a linkage has been established between them and NOD2/CARD15. The aim was to test whether defensins and cathelicidin (LL-37) expression and NOD2/CARD15 mutations in blood neutrophils are related to molecular bacterial translocation events in CD patients.
