Abstract
Developing genetic resistance is an ideal approach to control infectious diseases in ruminants. Natural Resistance Associated Macrophages Protein one (NRAMP1) is a phagosomal membrane protein. It is ubiquitously expressed in macrophages and neutrophils, and plays an important role in the host’s innate resistance/susceptibility to diseases. This mini review focuses on the expression of NRAMP1 in neutrophils of ruminants and its possible role in host innate immunity .
