Platelet function testing in the pony. Platelet isolation techniques and platelet function were evaluated in 35 adult ponies. Platelet recovery from whole blood was consistent and the preparation of platelet rich plasma was facilitated by an enhanced erythrocyte sedimentation rate. All platelet samples aggregated in response to 10 microM ADP. However, concentrations of ADP as high as 100 microM did not elicit significant 14C-serotonin release. Collagen induced irreversible platelet aggregation and 14C-serotonin release in all samples. The threshold dose for collagen in most ponies was 1.5 micrograms. Arachidonic acid (500 microM) f...
Left ventricular hypertrophy in chronically hypertensive ponies. Systemic arterial hypertension is associated with equine laminitis, a disease precipitated by gross over-ingestion of carbohydrates. We examined the hearts from nine chronically hypertensive (161 +/- 11/99 +/- 6 mmHg) laminitic ponies and nine normotensive (128 +/- 2/76 +/- 3 mmHg) ponies postmortem for signs of left ventricular hypertrophy. The hypertensive ponies had hearts which were significantly larger (7.77 +/- 0.26 g/kg bodyweight (BW) vs. 5.67 +/- 0.22 g/kg BW), as well as increased combined left ventricle and septum weight (4.99 +/- 0.21 g/kg BW vs. 3.67 +/- 0.20 g/kg BW) and left ven...
