Immunological activities of the mammary gland are important both as a means of transferring immunity from mother to young and for defending the mammary gland itself against infection. The presence of immunoglobulins G1, G2 and A, and of neutrophils, macrophages and complement in the ruminant mammary gland is described, in particular the synergistic role of antibody and neutrophils is discussed and studies of immunization against staphylococcal mastitis are outlined.
乳腺的免疫活动非常重要,既是将免疫力从母体传递给幼崽的一种方式,也是保护乳腺自身免受感染的手段。本文描述了反刍动物乳腺中免疫球蛋白G1、G2和A以及中性粒细胞、巨噬细胞和补体的存在情况,特别讨论了抗体和中性粒细胞的协同作用,并概述了针对葡萄球菌性乳腺炎的免疫研究。
