Journal of Equine Veterinary Science (2017)

Stephânia Katurchi Mendes Mélo Lúcia Maia Cavalcanti Ferreira Mônica Miranda Hunka Bruno de Lima Barbosa José Mário Girão Abreu

The aim of the present study was to characterize the modification of anti-oxidative biomarkers, as well as hematological and protein metabolism biomarkers, in four-beat gaited horses after the marcha gait simulation test (MST). Twelve adult Mangalarga Marchador horses were submitted to the MST and blood samples were taken at four time points: pretest/fasting; immediately after the MST; 15 and 120 minutes after the MST. The following measurements were taken: red blood cells count, hemoglobin, hematocrit (HT), white blood cells count, lymphocytes (LYMPH), platelets (PLAT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, the standard deviation of red cell distribution width (RDW-SD), the coefficient of variation of red cell distribution width, glutathione peroxidase (GPX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total plasma proteins (TPP), uric acid (AcUr), urea (URE), creatinine (CREAT), and albumin (ALB). The results were analyzed using analysis of variance and Tukey test (P < .05). The results confirmed reductions in GPX and SOD (P < .05) and increases in AcUr, TPP, ALB, URE, CREAT, red blood cells count, HT, Hb, white blood cells count, LYMPH, PLAT, MCV, and RDW-SD (P < .05) immediately after the MST. Lymphocytes reduced after the 120-minute recovery period (P < .05). In conclusion, the MST significantly decreased the antioxidative biomarkers, immediately after the MST, and produce the changes in protein and hematological biomarkers. These results are important for this group of athlete animals, who may participate frequently in competitions with short intervals between gait tests.

Aerobic exercise produces changes in plasma IL-6 but not IL-1b in four-beat gaited horses

Comparative Exercise Physiology (2015)

Luisa Mello Cotrim Ferreira Stephânia Katurchi Mendes Mélo Ana Isabela Alves Diniz Simone Gutman Vaz José Mário Girão Abreu

Exercise is an important stressor and is correlated with cytokine production in several tissues. There is little information about changes in interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1b in four-beat gaited horses during a typical aerobic exercise challenge. The objective of this research was to characterise changes in plasma IL-6, IL-1b, cortisol and other blood biomarkers in four-beat gaited horses after a marcha simulation test. We subjected 12 fit horses (approximately 5 years old and 390 kg) to the marcha simulation test (MST) (i.e. a 10 min warm-up, 30 min at marcha and 15 min cool down). Blood samples were collected before the MST, immediately after the MST and 15 and 120 min after the MST (i.e. recovery). Results were analysed with One Way Repeated Measures ANOVA and a Tukey tests with P ≤0.05 and Pearson correlation test. The highest value of plasma IL-6 was observed immediately after MST (6.85 pg/ml) ( P ≥0.05). IL-1 and cortisol did not change ( P ≥0.05). However, creatine kinase (CK) and aspartate aminotransferase, nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA), glycerol, total cholesterol and glucose were elevated immediately after the MST and at 15 min after the MST ( P ≤0.05). No change was observed in alanine aminotransferase and triglycerides ( P >0.05). Medium correlation was observed between NEFA and glycerol (R=0.64) and glycerol and triglycerides (R=0.50). In conclusion, an increase in IL-6 immediately that occurred after marcha simulation test was associated with elevated concentrations of several energetic metabolites (NEFA, glycerol and glucose). This metabolic adaption may contributed to the horses’ performance during their typical aerobic exercise and was not associated with significant elevation in IL-1b, CK, and cortisol in healthy trained four-beat gaited horses.

Alelo DMRT3 mutante em equinos de marcha batida e picada das raças Campolina e Mangalarga Marchador

Ciência Veterinária nos Trópicos (2015)

Hélio Cordeiro Manso Filho Ernst Gus Cothran Rytis Juras Manuel Adrião Gomes Filho Núbia Michelle Vieira da Silva

Recently, few papers had shown that DMRT3 allele has association with different aspects of the locomotion in horses and other animals, principally ones that have relationships with animal legs associations and now is denominated “ the Gait Keeper”. This allele, when mutant, produce dissociated gaits, with ou without flying phase. However, there is no information about the DMRT3 mutant allele presence when it is compared different types of marcha, batida and picada, and different gaited horses breeds, Campolina (CAMP) and Mangalarga Marchador (MM). The aims of this paper were the evaluation of the DMRT3 wild type and mutant alleles in gaited horses with batida and picada gait from CAMP and MM breeds. It was used DNA samples from 105 adult horses (50 CAMP (batida n=27; picada n=25); 53 MM (batida n=27; picada n=26). All genetic samples was sequenced using the Borlaug Center protocol by Illumina Hi-Seq 100-PE and the results were analyzed by frequency distribution of this allele between breeds and gaits. Results showed that CAMP and MM have the DMRT3 mutant allele. In CAMP breed it was not observed DMRT3 wild type allele in homozygous, in batida and picada horses. In addition, the DMRT3 mutant homozygous in CAMP breed occurred in picada (~44%) and batida (~26%) gaits animals in large frequencies. The MM breed did not have DMRT3 mutant homozygous in batida horses. The largest frequency in batida horses in MM breed was obtained in DMRT3 wild type homozygous (~43%) and in picada horses was in DMRT3 mutant homozygous (~32%). This research showed that DMRT3 mutant allele is present in CAMP and MM breeds and its frequency has relationships not only with horse’s breed but also with type of the horse’s gait. Finally, to understand the importance for gaited horses of the DMRT3 allele, mutant or wild type, it is necessary more studies because this knowledge has important implication for development new genetic selection methods and training programs to these breeds.

Abstract A methodology was validated to evaluate biochanin‐A, coumestrol, daidzein, formononetin, and genistein in lucerne (Medicago sativa). Extraction done through acid hydrolysis at 80°C, followed by extraction with HLB cartridges. A C18 column (4.6×250 mm) with a 0.8 mL/min flow of methanol solution (isocratic) and detection at 260 nm was applied. Separation factors were greater than 1.1 and resolutions were superior to 2.4. Linearity was established and correlation coefficients of responses were greater than 0.995. The detection and quantification limits were between 0.12–0.17 µg · mL−1 and 0.37–0.53 µg · mL−1, respectively. The coefficients of variation were between 5 and 15%. The accurate results in lucerne were 78, 35, 20, 14, and 11 mg (kgDM)−1 for coumestrol, formononetin, daidzein, genistein, and biochanin‐A.

Pattern of Development in Foals from Four Different Breeds between Birth and Weaning

Open Journal of Veterinary Medicine (2014)

Hélio Cordeiro Manso Filho Mônica Miranda Hunka Erika Korinfsky Wanderley Stephânia Katurchi Mendes Mélo Maria do Rosário Beltrão

Several studies have shown a major development in height and cannon bone circumference in foals from birth to weaning and from different breeds. However, in Brazil, there is little information about foal development. For this reason, this study has used data on foals from seven different farms in Pernambuco, Northeast Brazil, where horses have a major economic importance. The aim of this study was to compare foal's development from four breeds and to develop a regression formula in order to estimate such development. It was used data from 210 suckling foals (Arabians n = 18, Campolina n = 86, Mangalarga Marchador n = 42 and Quarter Horses n = 64), raised in similar management practices. Their height at withers, heart girth, and cannon bone girth were measured monthly from birth to weaning. Data we reanalyzed by ANOVA and Tukey Test, with P established in 5%. The highest mean of height at withers was observed in the Arabian foals, and it was similar to Campolina and Mangalarga Marchador foals. The last breed presented a higher percentage of gain in height (~36%) and higher heart girth. On the other hand, Campolina foals had the highest mean of cannon bone girth. There was a significant interaction between breed and development phase in heart and cannon bone girths. All regression for mulas obtained from this data was very significant, and it was showed that they can predict height at withers in the four breeds studied. Heart and cannon bone girths showed medium value of R2 and large significance. It is important to highlight that fetal programing produces significant impact on foal development, even after weaning. So, this study would have observed some more changes if its scope had been extended beyond this phase.
