Project description:Mycoplasma species are highly contagious pathogens, and Mycoplasma infectious disease are a serious issue for the dairy industry. The bovine neutrophils play an important role for the eradication of pathogens which cause mycoplasmal infection, however the effects of M. bovis for immune response of neutrophils have not been fully clarified. We examined the transcription profiling of bovine neutrophils on the stimulation with M. bovis for 3h (3 stimuli, 3 control).
Project description:Mycoplasma species are highly contagious pathogens, and Mycoplasma infectious disease are a serious issue for the dairy industry. The bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) play an important role for the eradication of pathogens which cause mycoplasmal infection, however the effects of M. bovis for immune response of PBMCs in vitro have not been fully clarified.We examined the transcription profiling of bovine PBMCs on the stimulation with M. bovis for 6h (3 stimuli, 3 control).
Project description:Mycoplasma species are highly contagious pathogens, and Mycoplasma infectious disease are a serious issue for the dairy industry. The bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells play an important role for mycoplasma mastitis, however, the effects of M. bovis for immune response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells have not been fully clarified.We examined the transcription profiling of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells in intramammary infusion of M. bovis at day 7.
Project description:The immune response associated with mastitis caused by Mycoplasma bovis is a very complicated biological process in several type of cells, including immune cells, mammary epithelial cells and, endothelial cells. Thus, revealing of the microRNAs in the Mycoplasma bovis infected mammary gland tissues is particularly important for the immune response mechanism to Mycoplasma bovis. Firstly, mammary gland tissue samples were collected from Holstein cows and screened for Mycoplasma bovis. Then, total RNA was isolated from mycoplasma bovis infected tissues and RNA sequencing was performed. After bioinformatics analysis, GO and KEGG analysis of target genes of identified microRNAs were conducted. Our results revaled that 24 of the known microRNAs were expressed differently and 13 of the novel microRNAs were expressed differently in Mycoplasma bovis positive tissues. The target genes of these microRNAs were found to be associated with especially inflammation pathways. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that identified miRNAs may be involved in the signaling pathways during mastitis case caused by Mycoplasma bovis.
Project description:Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus are two common pathogenic microorganisms that cause mastitis in dairy cows. They can cause clinical mastitis and subclinical mastitis. In recent studies, lncRNAs have been found to play an important role in the immune responses triggered by microbial inducers. However, the actions of lncRNAs in bovine mastitis remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the lncRNA profile on mastitis.
