Figure 6

Influence of LPS on the amount of milk components released into mammary glands. The concentration of triglycerides (A) and lactose (B) in extracts from mammary glands non-treated (0 h) and at 3, 6, and 12 h after LPS injection were measured by the methods described in the Materials and Methods section. Beta-casein in the extracts was detected by western blotting (C). The β-casein bands were quantified by densitometry analysis (D). Data represent the mean (SD) (n = 8 for measuring triglycerides, n = 4 for measuring lactose, n = 6 for measuring β-casein). *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.005 vs. 0 h.
