Pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID, previously often known as equine Cushing’s illness) is the most typical endocrine dysfunction of older equids. It impacts 20-30% of horses over age 15, although veterinarians have recognized it in horses youthful than 10. The illness develops when the neurons within the hypothalamus on the base of the mind deteriorate and fail to control the pituitary gland’s pars intermedia. As a consequence, the pars intermedia produces extra ranges of varied hormones that trigger the scientific indicators of PPID. Download this free information to be taught extra!
