Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a complex autoimmune disease of unknown etiology, frequently involving localized inflammation of the nasal mucosa as an early manifestation. The current hypothesis suggests that the disease is triggered by a disturbed interaction between genetic and environmental effects, such as an altered microflora at mucosal layers. In this study, a systematic assessment of 49 transcripts with potential pathophysiological relevance was performed using quantitative real-time PCR in nasal mucosa samples of more than 80 individuals, including normal control (NC) individuals and disease controls. In addition, colonization with Staphylococcus aureus was quantified in the same individuals to assess its impact on transcriptomic signatures. Transcription profiles show an increased heterogeneity in diseased individuals. In all, 10 transcripts were identified to be differentially expressed (P
