Abstract: 【Objective】 Dairy cows are more susceptible to bacterial diseases around parturition. The present study was conducted to investigate the expression of Nod-2 in the polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocytes (PMN) from periparturient cows and its effect on PMN respiratory burst, with the purpose to evaluate whether the Nod-2 receptor contributes to the increased susceptibility of periparturient cows to bacterial diseases. 【Method】 The Nod-2 mRNA in PMN from periparturient and non- periparturient cows was detected by RT-PCR. Function of respiratory burst in PMNs was evaluated by flow cytometry following the stimulation of the whole blood with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and the ligand of Nod-2, muramyl dipeptide (MDP), respectively. 【Result】 It was found that the blood PMN from periparturient cows had decreased Nod-2 mRNA expression than that from non-periparturient lactating cows (P<0.05), and their ability of respiratory burst responding to PMA stimulation was decreased (P<0.05). Upon the MDP stimulation, PMNs from periparturient cows showed decreased respiratory burst as well. 【Conclusion】 It was suggested that the reduced Nod-2 mRNA expression might contribute to the increased susceptibility to bacterial infection in periparturient cows.
