The etiology of Hirschsprung's-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) is unknown. Previous investigations have suggested that abnormal production of mucins may have an etiologic role. Recently, a series of mucin genes have been identified. MUC-2 is the predominant mucin expressed in humans. The authors have shown previously in vitro that use of MUC-2 can prevent bacterial translocation. Based on this, it was hypothesized that those patients with Hirschsprung's disease (HD) would have an abnormal production of MUC-2 compared with normal patients.
