ABSTRACT
Manuja M, Dhingra S, Kumar S,
Kumar SB., Toll like receptor 9 mRNA expression in calves, Onl J Vet Res., 28
(12): 867-877, 2024. We report transcriptional expression of
TLR9 in mesenteric lymph nodes, tonsil, spleen, blood, lung and intestine of
buffalo calves. The abundance of TLR9 in different tissues was determined by
normalizing the integrated density values of TLR9 expression against GAPDH housekeeping
gene. TLR9 mRNA expression was validated by RT- PCR. All tissues and peripheral
blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) exhibited variable mRNA expression of TLR9. We
found that expression in all tissues and cells differed (p<0.001). Least
integrated density values occurred in PBMCs, whereas highest in tonsil. Quantitative PCR yielded highest TLR9 expression in lymph
nodes of 25.4 fold higher, spleen 24.2, tonsils 24.82, lungs 17 and intestine
14.3 determined by ∆∆Ct. However, relative levels of
TLR9 mRNA levels were not different. We found higher expression of TLR9 in
lymphoid tissues compared to PBMCs, lungs and intestine.
Key words: TLR9, mRNA expression,
calves, RT-PCR.
