Enzymes in horses - Coggle Diagram
Enzymes in horses
Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE)
Possible correlation between ACE activity and equine athlete performance in non-race events
Enalapril
enalaprilat
Quinapril
Ranipril
heart rates in equines are associated with ACE activity
time of year and training may have an impact on ACE activity and production
Increases in blood pressure could be correlated to increases in ACE activity
Little exercise makes a large difference in ACE activity
An increase in shedding of the pulmonary enzyme is believed to increase ACE activity
Testing for ACE levels with blood tests
Blood is taken from the Jugular Vein
Venous Blood Sample is taken from Jugular Vein
Sample is place in a centrifuge and processed
Resulting plasma is put in a freezer
Sample taken before and after ride and tested with a cosistent method
Standardized Exercise Test
Conducted to fatigue
Weather
When it's colder, the horses tend to have more energy and enzymes deal with energy production
Will there be more ACE activity and production when the weather is colder?
