Mammary serum amyloid A3 (M-SAA3) has shown potential in stimulating innate immunity during intramammary infections, at calving and at dryoff. In this study, we produced recombinant caprine M-SAA3 to test its ability to reduce intramammary infections with Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus uberis, Streptococcus dysgalactiae, and Escherichia coli, which are all common mastitis-producing pathogens. Recombinant production of M-SAA3 (followed by lipopolysaccharide removal to avoid lipopolysaccharide-nonspecific stimulation of the immune system) was successfully achieved. Mammary serum amyloid A3 stimulated the expression of IL-8 in a dose-dependent manner in primary mammary cultures. Although a direct killing effect on Staph. aureus by M-SAA3 was not detected, this acute phase protein was able to reduce Staph. aureus, Strep. uberis, and Strep. dysgalactiae infections by up to 50% and induced a reduction in E. coli counts of 67%. In general, the best concentration of caprine M-SAA3 for inhibiting infections was the lowest concentration tested (10 μg/mL), although higher concentrations (up to 160 μg/mL) increased its antimicrobial potential against some pathogens.
