Figure 2From: Effects of topical application of resveratrol on tight junction barrier and antimicrobial compound production in lactating goat mammary glandsEffect of resveratrol on antimicrobial compound production in goat mammary epithelial cells (GMECs). β-defensin-1, S100A7, and lactoferrin levels as measured by ELISA in GMECs treated with resveratrol at various concentrations for 3 days (A) or treated with 10 μM resveratrol each day (B). C The expression of BD1 (β-defensin-1), S100A7, and LTF (lactoferrin) mRNA was detected using qPCR in GMECs treated with 10 μM resveratrol for 3 days. D β-defensin-1, S100A7, and lactoferrin levels as measured by ELISA in the medium of the upper chamber of inserts treated with 10 μM resveratrol for 4 days. Control GMECs were treated with 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide. The data are presented as the mean ± SEM (n = 8–12). Asterisks show significant differences (p < 0.05 versus control).Back to article page
