Abstract:
Mastitis is one of the common and prevalent diseases in dairy cows,and the natural prod-uct daidzein is a kind of natural flavonoids with a wide range of pharmacological and anti-inflam-matory effects.However,the effect of daidzein on mastitis in dairy cows has not been reported.Therefore,in this study,we explored the effects of daidzein on LPS-induced inflammatory response and tight junction damage in dairy mammary epithelial cells Firstly,we pretreated the MAC-T cell line using different concentrations of daidzein,and it was clarified that daidzein below 200 μmol/L had no effect on the cell activity.Next,we examined the production of pro-inflammatory mediators in LPS-stimulated MAC-T cell lines using qRT-PCR,and clarified that daidzein could reduce the production of pro-inflammatory mediators in a concentration-dependent manner.Subsequently,af-ter the expression of Occludin,Claudin3 and ZO-1 was detected by immunofluorescence and West-ern Blot,it was clear that daidzein could alleviate MAC-T cell intercellular tight junction injury.Fi-nally,it was demonstrated that daidzein significantly inhibited LPS-induced activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway within MAC-T using network pharmacological analysis and Western Blot.The above results suggest that daidzein can inhibit LPS-induced inflammatory response and tight junc-tion damage in mammary epithelial cells of cows by suppressing the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway.The present study provides a theoretical basis for the alleviation of mastitis by natural products and further expands the pharmacological effects of daidzein.
