  • Title: Biochemical changes in equine erythrocytes during experimental regenerative anemia.
    Author: Shull RM.
    Journal: Cornell Vet; 1981 Jul; 71(3):280-7. PubMed ID: 7261589.
    Abstract:
    Hemolytic or blood loss anemia was induce in six ponies and red blood cell concentrations of creatine, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and aspartate transaminase (AST) were measured during the ensuing regenerative period. Creatine and G-6-PD levels correlated well and increased concentration of either was good indication of increased erythrogenesis. Erythrocyte LDH levels were of value in assessing the response to hemolytic anemia but not to blood loss anemia. The difference may be, at least in part, the result of differing degrees of regenerative effort seen in the two experimental groups. Red cell AST concentrations fluctuated markedly and were of no value in assessing the anemia in either group.
