Mastitis, an inflammatory disease, causes severe economic loss in the dairy industry, which is mainly infected by bacteria. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), the major pathogenic microorganism, derived from lipoteichoic acid (LTA) has been identified to activate inflammatory responses, but the cellular or intercellular regulatory mechanism is unclear. This study mainly focused on the effects of LTA in bovine mammary epithelial cells (Mac-T) and elaborated the regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs). The results showed that LTA enhanced the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression and production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6. Furthermore, LTA could activate Toll-like receptor (TLR)2/MyD88-mediated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway, and TLR2 plays a pivotal role in LTA-induced inflammatory responses. The results of qRT-PCR showed that miRNA levels increased and reached the highest at 3 h and then gradually decreased over time in Mac-T cells. In exosomes, the levels of 11 and three miRNAs were upregulated and downregulated at 24 h, respectively. In addition, miR-23a showed the highest increase in Mac-T cells treated with LTA and targeted PI3K to regulate inflammatory responses. Furthermore, Mac-T cell-derived exosomes were identified to play a cell-cell communication by promoting M1 polarization of bovine macrophages. In summary, our study demonstrated that LTA could activate inflammatory responses via TLR2/MyD88/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and miR-23a inhibited it by targeting PI3K. Furthermore, we found that Mac-T cell-derived exosomes might be associated with inflammatory responses by promoting M1 polarization of bovine macrophages.
