Summary
Nod2-deficient mice have impaired resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection through defective innate and adaptive immunity.
Nod2 functions in non-hematopoietic cells of the small intestinal crypts and this is critical for protecting mice from a Th1-driven granulomatous inflammation in the ilum.
Nod2 and Nod1 account for neutrophil recruitment to the lungs of mice infected with Legionella pneumophila.
Nod2 and Nod1 activation results in substantial secretion of Ccl5 by murine macrophages and induces binding of NF-kappaB subunits to Ccl5 promoter.
Nod2 and Nod1 can detect Legionella pneumophila and these receptors modulate the in vivo pulmonary immune response differently.
Nod2 is both a positive and negative regulator of Tlr4 - the effect it exerts is dependent on the presence of MDP. Nod2 upon engagement with its ligand, MDP, positively regulates Tlr4-mediated signaling; in the absence of MDP, Nod2 negatively regulates the Tlr4 pathway.
Nod2 is a peripheral peptidoglycan intracellular sensor and is important for the progression and pathogenesis of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (animal model of multiple sclerosis).
Nod2 detects heat-killed Legionella pneumophila and stimulates NFkB and IFN-beta promoter activity. Nod2 deficiency results in increased proinflammatory cytokine expression at 4hrs and greater neutrophil recruitment to the lung.
Ddx58 and Nod2 colocalize to cellular ruffles and cell-cell junctions to form a protein complex via the CARD domains. Ddx58 negatively regulates ligand-induced NFkB signalling mediated by Nod2, and conversely, Nod2 negatively regulates type I interferon induction by Ddx58. (Demonstrated in human)
Nod2 recognition of muramyl dipeptide, a component of bacterial cell walls, improves the barrier function of intestinal epithelial cells.
Nod2 enhances the innate immune response of alveolar macrophages to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in human. (Demonstrated in human)
Nod1 and Nod2 synergize with Tlr4 in dendritic cells to increase IL12 production and enhance invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell activation, and are important regulators of the IFN gamma response by iNKT cells during S. typhimurium and L. monocytogenes infections.
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium Î?msbB that possesses a modified lipid A triggers exacerbated colitis in the absence of Nod1 and/or Nod2, which is likely due to increased Tlr2 stimulation.
Nod2 regulates type-1 cytokine responses to Mycobacterium avium but is not required for the control of M. avium infection in vivo.
Leukotriene B4 acts on Nod2 pathway to enhance the immune response against influenza A infection.

Summary
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 and NOD1 represent central players in the control of the immune responses to bacterial infections and inflammation.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 is an intracellular receptor of muramyl dipeptide (MDP), a component of peptidoglycan present in the cell wall of Gram-positive (G+) and Gram-negative (G-) bacteria.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 and NOD1 can induce CCL5 (RANTES) through NF-kappaB pathway, orchestrating the global Nod-dependent immune defence during bacterial infections.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2-dependent recognition of S. aureus and muramyl dipeptide is facilitated by alpha-toxin (alpha-hemolysin), a pore-forming toxin and virulence factor of the pathogen and is dependent on IL-1beta-amplified production of IL-6.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 and NOD1 direct autophagy by recruiting ATG16L1 to the plasma membrane at the site of bacterial entry.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 stimulation induces autophagy in dendritic cells influencing bacterial handling and antigen presentation.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 recruits the critical autophagy protein ATG16L1 to the plasma membrane during bacterial invasion.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 functions as a cytoplasmic viral pattern-recognition receptor (PRR) and activates an innate immune responses to viral ssRNA by triggering activation of interferon-regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and production of interferon-beta (IFNB1).
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 is both a positive and negative regulator of TLR4 - the effect it exerts is dependent on the presence of MDP. NOD2 upon engagement with its ligand, MDP, positively regulates TLR4-mediated signalling; in the absence of MDP, NOD2 negatively regulates the TLR4 pathway. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 is a peripheral peptidoglycan intracellular sensor and is important for the progression and pathogenesis of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (animal model of multiple sclerosis).
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 detects heat-killed Legionella pneumophila and stimulates NFkB and IFN-beta promoter activity. NOD2 deficiency results in increased proinflammatory cytokine expression at 4hrs and greater neutrophil recruitment to the lung. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Homo sapiens] DDX58 and NOD2 colocalize to cellular ruffles and cell-cell junctions to form a protein complex via the CARD domains. DDX58 negatively regulates ligand-induced NFkB signalling mediated by NOD2, and conversely, NOD2 negatively regulates type I interferon induction by DDX58.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 recognition of muramyl dipeptide, a component of bacterial cell walls, improves the barrier function of intestinal epithelial cells. (Demonstrated in mice)
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 enhances the innate immune response of alveolar macrophages to Mycobacterium tuberculosis in human.
[Homo sapiens] Following NOD2 activation, IRF4 interacts with MYD88, TRAF6, and RIPK2 and downregulates K63-linked polyubiquitinylation of RICK and TRAF6 leading to disruption of NFkB activation pathways.
[Homo sapiens] NOD2 plays a role in intestinal innate immunity by regulating the expression of DEFA5 and DEFA6 through the NF-kB and MAPK pathways.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000167207:
This gene is a member of the Nod1/Apaf-1 family and encodes a protein with two caspase recruitment (CARD) domains and six leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). The protein is primarily expressed in the peripheral blood leukocytes. It plays a role in the immune response to intracellular bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) by recognizing the muramyl dipeptide (MDP) derived from them and activating the NFKB protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Crohn disease and Blau syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
