Prolactin and Estradiol are Epigenetic Modulators in Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cells during <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Infection

Changes in the levels of reproductive hormones compromise the bovine innate immune response (IIR). Changes in 17β-estradiol (E2) and prolactin (bPRL) levels affect the IIR of bovine mammary epithelial cells (bMECs), the target tissue of these hormones. In this work, we explored the effect of the com...
