The Role of Bacteria and Pattern Recognition Receptors in GvHD

Treatment-related mortality and SNPs of innate immunity. SNPs 8,12 and 13 of NOD2 ( ) and the T300A. SNP of ATG16L1 ( ) were assessed by PCR in patients receiving allogeneic SCT and their respective HLA-identical sibling donors. Cumulative treatment related mortality as calculated by Kaplan-Meier method is shown in relation to absence of any SNPs (wt, wild-type) or presence of SNPs (variant, var) in recipients (R) and/or donors (D). Both associations were significant by log rank tests ( for NOD2, for ATG16L1).
