- W2079310275 abstract "Background: Donkeys appear to be more predisposed than large breed horses to suffer from hyperlipemia. The reason for that predisposition is unknown but anorexia is a consistent feature of the disease. Leptin, a protein synthesized in fat tissue, is one of the major inhibitors of appetite in mammals. Objective: We hypothesized that donkeys could have elevated plasma leptin concentrations compared to horses. Animals and Methods: Blood samples were obtained from 50 donkeys for measurement of leptin, triglycerides (TGs), glucose, and insulin. Glucose/insulin ratio, modified insulin to glucose ratio, and reciprocal of the square root of insulin were calculated. Based on their body condition score (BCS), donkeys were classified as lean (n = 18), normal (n = 16), or overweight (n = 16). The results were compared with reference values from our laboratory and with a group of horses (n = 25) used as an internal control. Results: Values of both leptin and TGs in donkeys were above the horse reference range and also significantly higher than those of the control horses: leptin (11.2 ± 1.7 versus 5.8 ± 0.5 µg/L, p < 0.05) and TGs (0.93 ± 0.1 versus 0.54 ± 0.1 mmol/L, p < 0.01). Overweight donkeys had leptin (19.3 ± 2.9 µg/L) and TG (1.3 ± 0.2 mmol/L) concentrations that were significantly (p < 0.01) higher than normal (9.4 ± 3.3 µg/L and 0.85 ± 0.1 mmol/L, respectively) and lean (5.5 ± 1.0 µg/L and 0.66 ± 0.1 mmol/L, respectively) donkeys. A significant positive correlation (p < 0.01) was found between BCS and leptin (r = 0.43), TGs (r = 0.46), glucose (r = 0.41), and insulin (r = 0.40). Conclusion: Donkeys have higher plasma leptin concentrations than horses and leptin is correlated with BCS." @default.
