The effect of staphylococcal infection on cahelicidin and β-defensin mRNA levels in epithelial cells lining the mammary gland cistern

The data shows the transcript levels of several bovine β-defensin and cathelicidin genes in mammary gland cistern lining epithelial cells (MGCLEC) derived from healthy udders or cow mammary glands naturally infected with coagulase-positive (CoPS) or coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS).Please consult the metadataCLEC.txt file for more information.
