Obesity-Related Metabolic Dysfunction in Dairy Cows and Horses: Comparison to Human Metabolic Syndrome

Life, 2021
Obesity has become a serious health problem with frequent occurrence both in human and animal populations. It is estimated that it may affect over 85% of the human population and 70–80% of horses and cows by 2030.

Evaluation of Four Diagnostic Tests for Insulin Dysregulation in Adult Light‐Breed Horses

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2016
Background Several tests have been evaluated in horses for quantifying insulin dysregulation to support a diagnosis of equine metabolic syndrome. Comparing the performance of these tests in the same horses will provide clarification of their accuracy in ...

Follicle Stimulating Hormone in Cattle Breeding: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Scope

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
FSH is crucial in cattle reproduction, with exogenous administration enhancing breeding and embryo production. Recombinant FSH offers advantages over pituitary‐extracted variants, including fewer injections, reduced stress, and safer production. These innovations improve breeding efficiency, optimize reproductive outcomes, and contribute to sustainable

Protective effects of adiponectin receptor agonists against equine lamellar endoplasmic reticulum stress

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lamellar endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress occurs in hyperinsulinemia‐associated and sepsis‐related laminitis. Adiponectin is associated with reduced laminitis risk and inhibits ER stress in other species. Objectives To induce ER stress in ex vivo equine lamellar cells using pharmacological agents.

Development of a prognostic scoring system for systemic inflammatory response syndrome in donkeys

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is associated with increased mortality in horses with gastrointestinal (GI) disease. However, there are no data relating to naturally occurring SIRS in donkeys. Objectives To determine SIRS frequency in donkeys with GI disease. To develop a donkey‐specific prognostic SIRS score.

Effects of equine metabolic syndrome on inflammation and acute-phase markers in horses [PDF]

Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 2020
Obesity and metabolic disorders are associated with systemic low-grade chronic inflammation, both in humans and animals. The aim of the study is to assess the effects of obesity and hyperinsulinemia on individual components of the acute-phase reaction in equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) horses.

Prevalence of insulin dysregulation in a sport horse population as determined by traditional and stall‐side testing

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The prevalence of insulin dysregulation (ID) has not been investigated in sport horses. Stall‐side insulin assays offer convenience but need further validation. Objectives To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for ID in a sport horse population using an oral sugar test (OST) and assess agreement between stall‐side and ...
