Cholera remains a significant health problem in developing countries due to its ability to spread rapidly and kills a high proportion of those affected. The disease is produced by Vibrio cholerae that colonizes in the human intestine and causes inflammatory diarrheal diseases. The reactogenicity of vaccine strain causes a serious problem in clinical settings. Besides the study of organisms V. cholerae, a thorough understanding of the host response following V. cholerae infection is indispensable to combat the disease from newly emerging threats. Elucidation of molecular mechanisms of V. cholerae induced inflammatory response through Toll-like receptor (TLR) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD) will eventually help to design proper vaccine or drugs for appropriate targets.
