Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes the concentrations of three estrogen types (17-β-estradiol, estrone, estrone-sulfate) during healthy horse pregnancies over a period of 4 to 11 months using advanced Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry techniques.
- Researchers measured the uterine and placental thickness and took monthly blood samples from Spanish PureBred and Showjumping mares to observe the hormonal levels.
- Findings revealed peak estrogen levels occurring at 5 months, with noticeable differences in estrogen concentrations between the two breeds and significant correlations between estrone and estrone-sulfate, suggesting further investigation is needed regarding breed-specific estrogen levels in later pregnancy stages.
