Effect of matrine in MAC-T cells and their transcriptome analysis: A basic study.

ABSTRACT: Matrine, an alkaloid derived from herbal medicine, has a wide range of biological activities, including antibacterial. Matrine was toxic to multiple cells at high concentrations. Bovine mammary epithelial cells (MAC-T) could be used as model cells for cow breast. Matrine was a feasible option to replace antibiotics in the prevention or treatment of mastitis against the background of prohibiting antibiotics, but the safe concentration of matrine on MAC-T cells and the mechanism of action for matrine at different concentrations were still unclear. In this study, different concentrations of matrine (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mg/mL) were used to treat MAC-T cells for various time periods (4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 h) and measure their lactic dehydrogenase (LDH). And then the optimal doses (2 mg/mL)
