Equine metabolic syndrome: part 2

UK-Vet Equine
Obesity, insulin dysregulation and predisposition to endocrinopathic laminitis represent the major cornerstones of equine metabolic syndrome. This article summarises new information pertaining to the predispositions and pathophysiology of equine metabolic syndrome and presents some newly emergent and effective treatments for this important and common ...

Cardiovascular findings in ponies with equine metabolic syndrome

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2017
Abstract OBJECTIVE To determine whether hypertension, high sympathetic tone, resting and exercising arrhythmias, and echocardiographic changes consistent with hypertensive cardiomyopathy were associated with equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) in ponies. DESIGN Prospective case-control study.

Equine metabolic syndrome

Practica Veterinara.ro
Equine metabolic syndrome is a health problem that affects many horses that are considered “easy keepers”. The disease consists of large regional fat deposits, obesity, insulin resistance or high fasting insulin concentrations and if not controlled ...

Advanced nutritional and stem cells approaches to prevent equine metabolic syndrome

Research in Veterinary Science, 2018
Horses metabolic disorders have become an important problem of modern veterinary medicine. Pathological obesity, insulin resistance and predisposition toward laminitis are associated with Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS). Based on pathogenesis of EMS, dietary and cell therapy management may significantly reduce development of this disorder.

Equine Metabolic Syndrome

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2009
The concept of an equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) was first proposed in 2002. This concept has developed over time, and EMS was recently described in a consensus statement released by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine. In human medicine, metabolic syndrome (MetS) refers to a set of risk factors that predict the risk of cardiovascular

Investigation of the Effects of a Dietary Supplement on Insulin and Adipokine Concentrations in Equine Metabolic Syndrome/Insulin Dysregulation.

Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2020
High insulin concentrations are a common clinical feature of equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) and insulin dysregulation. Hyperinsulinemia can induce laminitis, so reduction of insulin concentrations in response to an oral challenge should decrease risk ...

Leucine, pyridoxine and resveratrol supplementation alter metabolic parameters in ponies with equine metabolic syndrome.

Equine Veterinary Journal
BACKGROUND Supplements claiming to improve metabolic profiles in equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) often lack scientific validation. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of a supplement containing leucine, resveratrol and pyridoxine on the metabolic profile

Equine metabolic syndrome: evolution of understanding over two decades: a personal perspective

Animal Production Science, 2020
There has been a marked increase in the incidence of equine obesity globally, especially in countries where there has been a shift away from the horse having an economically essential working role.

Preliminary analysis of the FAM174A gene suggests it lacks a strong association with equine metabolic syndrome in ponies.

Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 2020
Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) describes a group of risk factors, including obesity and insulin dysregulation (hyperinsulinemia and/or insulin resistance), that can lead to the development of the debilitating hoof disease laminitis.

Assessment of the FAM174A 11G allele as a risk allele for equine metabolic syndrome.

Animal Genetics, 2020
An 11G nucleotide repeat in the 3' UTR of FAM174A was recently postulated as a risk allele with a dominant mode of inheritance for equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) and laminitis status in Arabian horses.
