Influence of LPS on the expression of genes required for milk component trafficking. Expression levels of VAMP-3 (A), VAMP-4 (B), syntaxin-6 (C), SNAP-23 (D), and adipophilin (E) in mammary glands non-treated (0 h) and at 3, 6, and 12 h after LPS injection were quantified by real-time PCR. Data represent mean (SD) (n = 6). *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.005 vs. 0 h.
