 Herein, two mutations of the Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 gene (Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile) resulting in impaired lipopolysaccharide signaling, the -159C/T promotor polymorphism of the CD14 gene, polymorphisms of the lipopolysaccharide binding protein gene and the bactericidal permeability increasing protein gene were evaluated in 102 patients with Crohn's disease, 98 patients with ulcerative colitis and 145 healthy controls.
