Equine degenerative myeloencephalopathy (EDM) is a common spinal cord disease in the horse. The etiology of EDM currently is unknown. In other species, there are similarities in the clinical signs and neuropathological changes observed in EDM and in copper deficiency. The objective of this study was to determine if horses affected with EDM had low levels of plasma or liver copper. Plasma copper values were determined in 25 EDM affected horses and 35 normal horses. Liver copper levels were determined on 13 EDM affected horses and 22 normal horses. Plasma and liver copper values were not significantly lower in EDM affected horses than in control horses.
马退行性脊髓脑病变（EDM）是马常见的脊髓疾病。目前EDM的病因尚不清楚。在其他物种中，EDM所观察到的临床症状和神经病理变化与铜缺乏症存在相似之处。本研究的目的是确定患EDM的马血浆或肝脏铜水平是否较低。测定了25匹患EDM的马和35匹正常马的血浆铜值。测定了13匹患EDM的马和22匹正常马的肝脏铜水平。患EDM的马的血浆和肝脏铜值并不显著低于对照马。
