A cell biological study of immunological diversity in bovine mammary tissue

我们建立了一个细胞培养模型作为牛乳腺感染的新模型。利用该模型，研究人员明确了迄今为止被认为是产乳细胞的乳腺上皮细胞具有免疫多样性，并且与免疫能力细胞密切相关。本课题为预防兽药的发展研究，研究成果对日本第一产业的稳定发展具有重要的社会意义。

We created a cell culture model as a novel model of bovine mammary infection. Using this model, it was clarified that mammary epithelial cells recognized to date as milk-producing cells possess immunological diversity and are closely related to immunocompetent cells. The topic of this application is developmental research in preventative veterinary medicine and the findings are of great social significance to steady development of primary industry in Japan.
