ABSTRACT: To evaluate the roles of DUOX2 in flagellin- induced inflammatory response in mouse nasal mucosa. Wild type (Duox2+/+) and Duox2 knockout (Duox2-/-) mice were stimulated with 1 M-NM- 2 fold) were up-regulated in nasal mucosa of Duox2+/+ that was treated with flagellin and the full list of genes is presented in Supplemental Table II. These genes included the following defense- and immune response-related genes : Cytokine/chemokine-related genes (CCL20, CCR2, CCR5, CXCL2, CXCL5, CXCL9, CXCL16, IL18RAP, TNFAIP2, IL1B EAR2, FPR1), Granulocyte-related genes (IL8RB, MPO, PRG2, PPBP, PRG3), interferon-related genes (IFITM6, IFI47), macrophage related genes (IL1B, S100A9), and T-cell mediated immune response related genes (H2-Q6, IL1F9). In addition, signal t
