We identified a significant upregulation of miR-146a/b in bovine mammary tissues challenged with S. aureus or E. coli.
We identified a significant upregulation of miR-146a/b in mammary gland tissues with subclinical or clinical mastitis.
MiR-146a/b were not significant expression in blood from cows challenged with S. aureus or E. coli compared to healthy cows.
MiR-146a/b might target on TRAF6 and IRAK1 gene, and might be involved in 20 immunological pathways.
MiR-146a/b are the potential moderators of bovine mammary inflammation.
