In this study, to establish whether serum amyloid A (SAA) 3 plays a role in the defense against bacterial infection in mouse mammary epithelium, normal murine mammary gland (NMuMG) epithelial cells were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA). LPS and LTA significantly enhanced mRNA expression level of the <i>Saa3</i> gene, whereas no significant change was observed in the <i>Saa1</i> mRNA level. Furthermore, LPS induced SAA3 protein expression more strongly than LTA ...[more]
