Endocrinological aspects of the pathophysiology of equine laminitis

Equine Laminitis: A Revised Pathophysiology

Vasodilation precedes the development of carbohydrate overload laminitis. Circulating laminitis trigger factors activate lamellar enzymes, which lyse the attachments between the distal phalanx and the inner hoof wall. The clinical signs of laminitis occur when the lamellar architecture disintegrates. The amount of pain correlates with the extent of lamellar pathology. A substance produced by St...

Molecular Characterization of the Pathophysiology of the Digital Laminae in Acute Carbohydrate-Induced Equine Laminitis

Laminitis and the equine metabolic syndrome.

Although much has been written about laminitis in the context of its association with inflammatory processes, recognition is growing that most cases of laminitis examined by veterinarians in private practice are those associated with pasture grazing, obesity, and insulin resistance (IR). The term 'endocrinopathic laminitis' has been adopted to classify the instances of laminitis in which the or...

Equine Laminitis: Practical Clinical Considerations

Over the past 20 yr, extensive research efforts as well as clinical experience has greatly increased our knowledge base of equine laminitis. Our present understanding of the disease is that there is failure of the lamellar attachment between the distal phalanx and hoof wall. This, in turn, initiates a sequence of events ranging from no permanent structural damage to loss of the hoof capsule. Af...
