NOD1 and NOD2 mRNA expression in cholesteatoma. NOD1 (left bar) and NOD2 (right bar) mRNA expression in cholesteatoma compared to external auditory canal skin (EAS). Real time PCR reveals no significantly higher gene expression of NOD1 within the cholesteatoma, but a significantly higher expression of NOD2 compared to EAS. For normalization, the housekeeping gene GAPDH was used and compared to EAS. N = 10 samples; statistics was performed by GraphPad Prism with the use of an unpaired t-test, P < 0.05.
