Transcriptome sequencing reveals fibrotic associated-genes involved in bovine mammary fibroblasts with Staphylococcus aureus.

Bovine mammary fibrosis represents a considerable health problem of cows, primarily indicated by lactation failure. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) can cause mammary damage, this multifactorial disease necessitates to identify how and to what extent molecular pathogen defense mechanisms prevent bacterial infections in bovine mammary gland.
