Abstract: Detected the expression of the mRNA of β-defensins (SBD-2) in the foetal Mongolia sheep by in situ hybridization which labeled with digoxin.Took the lung, stomach, intestine, uterus, tongue, heart from the 4-month-old foetal Mongolia sheep to do the situ hybridization. Results: sBD-2 mRNA distributes in lung, stomach, intestine, uterus, tongue, heart which are representative of the respiratory system, digestive system ,absorption system ,reproductive system and muscle tissue of the foetal Mongolia sheep.Indicated that sBD-2 distributed widely in the fetal body as an effective and broad-spectrum antibacterial peptide.

Key words: β - defensin; foetal Mongolian sheep; in situ hybridization 
