Streptococcal bacteria are one of the most important pathogens causing different type of bovine mastitis. In this respect, it is very important to study effect of streptococcal infections on cell populations of bovine mammary gland to improve knowledge how to prevent and treat streptococcal infections of bovine mammary gland. Streptococcal bacteria can affect different cell processes, for example, programmed cell death (apoptosis) and expression of some cell receptors on leukocytes such as neutrophils, lymphocytes and macrophages of mammary gland. This review summarizes information about effect of streptococcal infections on leukocytes of bovine mammary gland.
