The aim of this study was to evaluate serum amyloid A (SAA) concentration in horses with orthopedic injuries acquired during racing and in healthy ones after completing the race. Injuries of bone and tendon did not cause radical increase in SAA concentration observed in other inflammatory conditions. SAA concentration correlated positively with white blood cell count (WBC) on the 3rd-4th days after race being significantly higher in the injured horses than in the control group in that time. It was suggested that racing effort may cause increase in SAA level, more pronounced in horses manifesting clinical signs of orthopedic injury after the race.
本研究的目的是评估赛马比赛期间发生骨科损伤的马匹以及赛后健康马匹的血清淀粉样蛋白A(SAA)浓度。骨骼和肌腱损伤并未导致在其他炎症情况下观察到的SAA浓度急剧升高。比赛后第3 - 4天,SAA浓度与白细胞计数(WBC)呈正相关,此时受伤马匹的SAA浓度显著高于对照组。研究表明,比赛强度可能导致SAA水平升高,在赛后出现骨科损伤临床症状的马匹中更为明显。
