Impact of subclinical intramammary infection by coagulase-negative staphylococci on the bovine milk peptidome

ABSTRACT: Previous studies have investigated the peptidomic changes occurring in cow milk during mastitis; however, these focused mainly on clinical mastitis, either spontaneous (Mansor et al., 2013) or induced by experimental infection (Thomas et al., 2016). Mansor and coworkers were the first to use mass spectrometry to demonstrate that several peptides found increased in milk from cows with clinical S. aureus or E. coli mastitis were mainly derived from aS1- and b-casein. In that study, 48 peptides were significantly different between the milks of healthy and mastitic cows. Non-mastitic samples were confirmed to be non-mastitic by having SCC <100,000 cells/mL (Mansor et al., 2013). Thomas and coworkers expanded the peptidomic repertoire in a study evaluating the kinetics of experimental S. uberis infection, and found signature peptides with potential as mastitis markers (Thomas et al., 2016). Only one study evaluated the milk peptidome in subclinical mastitis (Guerrero et al., 2015) demonstrating that even subclinical infections can cause significant increases in the total number of released peptides when compared to uninfected milk. However, neither the IMI agents nor the somatic cell counts were reported. With the aim of understanding high abundance protein and peptidomic changes due to subclinical CNS mastitis, to identify signature peptides with potential for subclinical mastitis detection, and to compare the proteomic and peptidomic findings with those reported in clinical mastitis, we investigated the influence of CNS IMI on high abundance milk proteins by SDS-PAGE and densitometric analysis, followed by a detailed characterization of the milk peptidome by means of high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry and bioinformatic analysis.

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are the most prevalent microorganisms isolated from cow milk and are associated with subclinical mastitis and persistent increases in the bulk milk somatic cell count (BMSCC) of low BMSCC herds. By combining peptide enrichment, LC-ESI-MS/MS, and statistical analysis, we investigated the influence of subclinical mastitis and CNS infection on the milk peptidome. Quarter milk samples from clinically healthy Holstein cows were subjected to bacteriological cultu ...[more]

Project description:Bovine mastitis, the infection of the mammary gland which leads to great health and economic challenges for dairy farmers is accompanied by dramatic changes in the milk proteome. In this study of naturally occurring mastitis not only have the changes in the milk proteome been quantified in subclinical and clinical mastitis but simultaneous changes in the serum proteome have also been characterised and quantified. Milk and serum samples from healthy dairy cows (n=12) were compared to those of cows with subclinical (n=10) and clinical mastitis (n=112) using TMT label-based proteomic approach. The study included the milk and serum samples taken from thirty-two dairy cows ( kept on private farms located in Croatia. All cows were checked by physical examination. Somatic cells count (SCC) and mastitis test in milk samples were performed. According to the results, cows were assigned into three groups: Group I (control, n=10) consisted of healthy cows with SCC below 400,000 cells/ml on the monthly check-up and a negative mastitis test and without any clinical sign of mastitis. Group II (subclinical mastitis, n=12) comprised cows without clinical signs of mastitis but with SCC above 400,000 cells/ml on the monthly basis and a positive mastitis test at the time of sampling. Group III (clinical mastitis, n=10) consisted of cows with clinical signs of mastitis which include changes in milk appearance (flakes and clots in milk), different stages of udder inflammation (hyperemia, edema, pain, udder enlargement and elevated udder temperature) and disturbance of general health (depression, relaxed cold ears, dehydration, elevated body temperature, increased heart and respiratory rate, decreased ruminal contraction and decreased appetite). Blood samples were taken from v. coccygea and centrifuged at 3000 g for 15 min after clotting for two hours at room temperature. Serum samples were stored at -80°C until analysis. Milk samples were taken aseptically before the morning milking. First few streams were discarded. Teat ends were disinfected with cotton swabs soaked with 70% ethanol. Samples were taken into sterile tubes and transported to laboratory on ice within a few hours.
