Vet. Sci."],"abstract":"<jats:p>Mastitis is one of the most common diseases in dairy farms. During the perinatal period, the bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) of High-yielding dairy cows accelerate metabolism and produce large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS). It is one of the primary causes of mastitis and will lead to the breakdown of redox balance, which will induce oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Baicalin is a flavonoid substance extracted from the root of natural plant <jats:italic>Scutellaria baicalensis<\/jats:italic>, which has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-viral and other biological functions. In this research, hydrogen peroxide (H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>) was used to construct a mastitis oxidative stress model, and relevant mechanisms were analyzed by immunofluorescence techniques, qRT-PCR and Western Blot to explore how baicalin affects BMECs' oxidative stress and inflammation caused by H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>, as well as to provide new perspectives on the combined application of baicalin in the prevention and treatment of mastitis. The results demonstrated that baicalin treatment could reduce the accumulation of H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>-induced intracellular ROS and decrease the expression of inflammatory cytokines Tumor Necrosis Factor-\u03b1 (TNF-\u03b1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin-1\u03b2 (IL-1\u03b2) and the apoptosis rate. The inhibitory effect of baicalin on H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>-induced intracellular ROS accumulation and the expression of inflammatory cytokines and apoptotic factors in BMECs was blocked by pretreatment with the Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) inhibitor retinoic acid (RA) prior to H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> and\/or baicalin treatment. In summary, baicalin could served as a natural antioxidant agent to regulate cell apoptosis through its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects to combat BMECs damage caused by H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fvets.2024.1504887","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,12]],"date-time":"2024-12-12T06:25:54Z","timestamp":1733984754000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Evaluation
