After incubation with inactive Af conidia for 0.5, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours, THCE cells were harvested, mRNA expression of NOD2 and receptor interacting protein 2 (RIP2) was detected by RT-PCR. Intracellular proteins including NOD2, NF-κB and proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-8, IL-6 in the cell supernatant were analyzed by ELISA.·RESULTS:Our data indicate that NOD2 expressed in the normal THCE cells. After triggered by the inactive Af conidia, the expression of NOD2, RIP2 mRNA and the secretion of NOD2, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-8, IL-6 both increased in a time-depended manner, and reached the peak point at 4, 6, 6, 4, 6, 6, 4 hours, respectively. And after pretreated with NOD2 neutralizing antibody, the expression of RIP2, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-8 both decreased dramatically at the peak point, while the secretion of IL-6 changed little.·CONCLUSION:The results of this study suggest that NOD2 exists and expresses in the THCE cells, and contributes to the innate immune responses triggered by inactive Af conidia by induction of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-8 through the NF-κB pathway. 关键词：NUCLEOTIDE OLIGOMERIZATION domain 2 corneal epithelial cell ASPERGILLUS FUMIGATUS INNATE immune response
