Culture Models to Investigate Mechanisms of Milk Production and Blood-Milk Barrier in Mammary Epithelial Cells: a Review and a Protocol
Mammary epithelial cells (MECs) are the only cell type that produces milk during lactation. MECs also form less-permeable tight junctions (TJs) to...

Presence of pathogen DNA in milk harvested from quarters is associated to changes in cows’ milk yield and composition
BackgroundIntramammary infection is the result of invasion and multiplication of microorganisms in the mammary gland and commonly leads to mastitis...

Cows with diverging haplotypes show differences in differential milk cell count, milk parameters and vaginal temperature after S. aureus challenge but not after E. coli challenge
BackgroundIn dairy cattle, mastitis causes high financial losses and impairs animal well-being. Genetic selection is used to breed cows with reduced...
