Abstract: Lactose is a milk-specific carbohydrate synthesized by mammary epithelial cells (MECs) in mammary glands during lactation. Lactose synthesis is downregulated under conditions causing inflammation such as mastitis, in which MECs are exposed to high concentrations of inflammatory cytokines. In this study, we investigated whether inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6) directly influence the lactose synthesis pathway by using two types of murine MEC culture models: the monolayer culture of MECs to induce lactogenesis; and the three-dimensional culture of MECs surrounded by Matrigel to induce reconstitution of the alveolar structure in vitro. TNF-alpha caused severe down-regulation of lactose synthesis related genes concurrently with the degradation of glucose transporter 1 (GLUTI) from the basolateral membranes in MECs. IL-1 beta also caused degradation of GLUTI along with a decrease in the expression level of beta-1,4-galactosylransferase 3. IL-6 caused both up-regulation and down-regulation of the expression levels of lactose synthesis-related genes in MECs. These results indicate that TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 have different effects on the lactose synthesis pathway in MECs. Furthermore, TNF-alpha triggered activation of NFKB and inactivation of STAT5, suggesting that NF kappa B and STAT5 signaling pathways are involved in the multiple adverse effects of TNF-alpha on the lactose synthesis pathway.
