Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. (2022)
Journal Article
Finding, E., Elliott, J., Harris, P., & Menzies-Gow, N. (2022). Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. Research in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2022.05.012

Previously laminitic (PL) ponies are reported to have higher blood pressure than non laminitic (NL) ponies. This relative hypertension may be related to endothelial cell dysfunction, similar to humans with metabolic syndrome. To investigate the relat...
