| Abstract: | In order to establish the mouse mastitis model induced by Staphylococcus aureus small colony variants (SCVs),40 BALB/c mice 6 to 8 days postpartum were randomly divided into eight groups,negative control group,physiologic saline group and six treated groups with different doses (1.0×103,1.0×104 and 1.0×105 CFU/mL) of Staphylococcus aureus SCVs or Staphylococcus aureus quality control strains.50 μL physiologic saline and Staphylococcus aureus liquid were injected into the forth mammary glands in physiologic saline group and the six treated groups,respectively.All the mice were sacrificed 24 h after treatment.One side of the forth mammary glands was used to make pathological section,the other side was used to detect the concentration of TNF-α in the supernatant.The results showed that mice had different degrees of clinical symptoms in the treated groups,their mammary glands appeared different degrees of inflammatory symptoms and pathological changes.Under the same injected dose,the Staphylococcus aureus quality control strains group pathologic changed more severe than the Staphylococcus aureus SCVs group.The experimental data had been statistically analyzed by using SPSS software,the result showed that the expression of TNF-α of the Staphylococcus aureus quality control strains group were extremely significantly higher than that of Staphylococcus aureus SCVs group with high dose (P<0.01).The results indicated that Staphylococcus aureus and its SCVs could be used to establish the mice mastitis model,and Staphylococcus aureus SCVs caused relatively minor inflammation than the normal strains.The results provided a new research materials and meaningful exploration to research the prevention and control of chronic mastitis cows and its pathogenic mechanism caused by Staphylococcus aureus SCVs,and laid the foundation for studying the deeper relationship between Staphylococcus aureus SCVs and chronic mastitis. |
