چکیده انگلیسی
Continuous or primary epithelial cell lines have been extensively used to study the mammary gland immune response, but they are constituted by a single cell population. Our aim was to test whether an explant of heifer gland, where the tissue structure is maintained, might be a valid model to investigate the innate immune response to infection. The study was carried out on 2 mm3-sections of heifer udders, in 2 consecutive trials, using LPS or LTA in the first trial and two different concentrations of Staphylococcus aureus (Staph. aureus) in the second. Treated and untreated sections were collected after 1 h, 3 h and 6 h incubation; in the first trial, a final time-point at 18 h was considered. The mRNA expression of TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and LAP was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR. Histological examination showed well-preserved morphology of the tissue, and apoptosis only showed a slight, not significant increase throughout the experiment. IL-1β and IL-6 were significantly up-regulated, in response to LPS or Staph. aureus, while TNF-α and IL-8 significantly increased only under LPS treatment. LAP expression showed a significant late increase when stimulated by LPS. The immunochemical staining of the sections demonstrated a higher number of T lymphocytes within the alveolar epithelium, in comparison with interstitial localization. Since the explants belonged to pubertal non-pregnant heifers, T cells may be regarded as resident cells, suggesting their participation in the regulation of mammary homeostasis. Therefore, applying our model would give new insights in the investigation of udder pathophysiology.
