The antimicrobial peptide S100A7, with antimicrobial activities for a broad spectrum of bacteria, has attracted more and more attention for the prevention and treatment of mastitis. However, there is little information about the expression and regulation mechanism of S100A7 in mastitis goats. This study revealed that S100A7 was mainly expressed in the stratified squamous epithelium of teat skin and streak canal, and S100A7 was present weakly in the healthy goat alveolus yet densely in the mastitis goat collapsed alveolus. Goat mammary epithelial cells (MECs) were isolated and treated with 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 µg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) respectively for a different time, S100A7 mRNA expression and protein secretion were upregulated significantly with LPS treatment for 3 h, and the secretion level of S100A7 descended after 48 h treatment for all of these four groups. Moreover, after treatment with LPS, the mRNA levels of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and MyD88 were up-regulated, and the phosphorylation of p65 was up-regulated markedly. However, adding TLR4 inhibitor TAK-242 or/and NF-κB inhibitor QNZ significantly suppressed the phosphorylation of p65, and then inhibited the expression and secretion of S100A7 induced by LPS treatment. In conclusion, LPS induced the expression and secretion of S100A7 in goat MECs via TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.
