CCL20 and Crohn disease: Considering NOD2 mutations in Crohn’s disease, we investigated whether Vitamin D deficiency (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration < 20 ng/mL) increases circulating CCL20 levels in inflammatory bowel disease patients and healthy controls and whether active 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol) downregulates systemic and intestinal CCL20 expression.
