Evolutionary forces drive beneficial adaptations in response to a complex array of
environmental conditions. In contrast, over several millennia, humans have been so …

The main goal of any conditioning programme in athletic horses is to improve performance
by inducing physiological changes within the animal's body. Equine skeletal muscles have a …

Aerobic exercise training (AET) is an important mechanical stimulus that modulates skeletal
muscle protein turnover, leading to structural rearrangement. Since the ubiquitin …

This study was conducted to examine the effects of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA)
supplementation totally based on vegetable meal diet on growth performance, muscle flavor …

A horse's skeletal musculature is highly developed, particularly in athletic breeds. In contrast
to most mammals, in which 30–40% of bodyweight consists of muscle, or in non-athletic …

Simple Summary Stressful stimuli, both infectious and non-infectious, can modify and trigger
an innate immune response and inflammation, via an attempt to restore a homeostatic state …

Reasons for performing study: Limited information exists about the muscle mitochondrial
respiratory function changes that occur in horses during an endurance season. Objectives …

Equine conditioning programmes are rarely driven by science. Indeed, the scientific
literature on conditioning responses often refers to conventional technique rather than …

We investigated the effects of incubation temperatures and vitamin C injections into eggs
(treatments: 37.5 ºC, 39ºC, 39ºC+ vitamin C) on resultant chick pectoralis major and sartorius …

Equine bioenergetics have predominantly been studied focusing on glycogen and fatty
acids. Combining omics with conventional techniques allows for an integrative approach to …
