Topic:Hormones

Hormones in horses are chemical messengers produced by various glands and tissues, regulating numerous physiological processes essential for maintaining homeostasis. These hormones influence a wide range of functions, including growth, metabolism, reproduction, and stress responses. Key hormones in equine physiology include cortisol, estrogen, testosterone, and insulin, among others. The levels and effects of these hormones can vary based on factors such as age, sex, and environmental conditions, impacting overall health and performance. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore the production, regulation, and physiological roles of hormones in equine biology.

ROWLANDS IW.Shortly after Cole & Hart [1930] had reported the discovery of a gonadotrophic hormone in the blood of the mare in early pregnancy they [Cole, Howell & Hart, 1931] described the changes that occur in the ovaries throughout gestation, and associated the unusually active condition of the ovaries between the 40th and 150th day with the presence of the gonadotrophin in the blood. During this period the ovaries are very large and contain numerous follicles and a small number of functional corpora lutea. The authors claim that the latter serve initially to supplement the function of the prim...

Birgitsdotter LM, Friedrichsen Borg H, Kendall A.Medical induction of maternal behavior can be a safer and less stressful way to introduce orphan foals to nurse mares, compared with traditional methods that are time consuming and require restraint of the mare. Published data on results of medical treatment in a large number of mares are lacking. Objective: Describe a hormone-based protocol for foal grafting, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, dinoprost tromethamine, and oxytocin, and to report treatment outcome. Methods: A total of 113 nurse mares and 27 mares that had rejected their foals. Methods: Retrospective case series. Ca...
