Mastitis pathogens with high virulence in a mouse model produce a distinct cytokine profile in vivo

Mastitis is a serious medical condition of dairy cattle. Here we evaluated whether the degree of virulence of mastitis pathogens in a mouse model can be linked the inflammatory response that they provoke.
