Lesser synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines in Camp−/− mice infected with Prototheca bovis. Camp+/+ and Camp−/− were intramammary challenged with P. bovis or PBS (control). Transcriptomic expression and protein secretion of pro-inflammatory genes in the mammary gland including (A,B) TNF-α, (C,D) Cxcl-1, (E) IL-1β, (F) β-defensin-4, and (G) Camp were determined at 4 d post-infection. mRNA synthesis was quantified using RT qPCR and protein secretion was determined in cell supernatant by ELISA. Data are means ± SEM (n = 4/group). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 (one-way ANOVA post hoc Bonferroni correction) was considered significant.
