Figure 4From: Underlying mechanisms involved in the decrease of milk secretion during Escherichia coli endotoxin induced mastitis in lactating miceInfluence of LPS on the expression of genes required for milk component trafficking. Expression levels of VAMP-3 (A), VAMP-4 (B), syntaxin-6 (C), SNAP-23 (D), and adipophilin (E) in mammary glands non-treated (0 h) and at 3, 6, and 12 h after LPS injection were quantified by real-time PCR. Data represent mean (SD) (n = 6). *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.005 vs. 0 h.Back to article page
