Abstract Objective Neuropeptides have garnered great interest as potential treatments for epilepsy due to their impact on neuronal excitability through modulation of ion channels and neurotransmitter receptor activity. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36‐amino acid neuropeptide that is expressed primarily by γ‐aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) interneurons ...

Summary The occurrence of Aural Plaques (AP) in horses, attributed to infection with Equus caballus Papillomavirus (EcPV), has become increasingly prevalent in equine breeding populations. Major challenges in managing this condition include genetic susceptibility to the virus, significant variability in individual immune responses among horses and the ...

Tracheal collapse rates in Kenyan working cart and pack donkeys
Abstract Background Donkeys (Equus asinus) in East Africa are recognised as working with poorly designed harnesses and carts. The donkey cart used in regions of Africa, specifically Meru County, Kenya, appears to place the cart's weight solely on the donkey's mid‐cervical region.

Physiological and behavioural effects of continuous remifentanil‐xylazine administration in donkeys
Abstract Background Remifentanil and xylazine are used as continuous infusions to facilitate standing surgery in horses. Their use for this purpose has not been reported in donkeys. Objectives To evaluate the behavioural, sedative, and cardiorespiratory effects of continuous intravenous infusion of remifentanil and xylazine in donkeys. Study Design Non‐
