Figure 8

Relative expression of genes encoding mediators of immunity and inflammation at early stages of infection using RNA extracted from MFG by Real-Time PCR. The relative expression of a marker of contamination by leucocytes (CD68) and of genes involved in the inflammatory response of the mammary gland was monitored at 12 hpi (blue symbols), 18 hpi (black symbols) and 23 hpi (red symbols). Solid circles are for CI goats, hollow triangles for UI goats. Expression at 12, 18 and 23 hpi is relative to the expression (set at 1) at 0 hpi for each gene.
