| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 臨床動物醫學研究所 === 97 === In this research, suspected affected horses (n=9) were performed complete blood count (C.B.C), serum biochemistry, plasma epinephrine concentration examination, plasma total T4 concentration, intradermal injecting test (IDT), the histopathology of the skin sample to examine the sweat gland conformation, and evaluate the water transportation of the sweat gland cells by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Base on the IDT, the effects of vitamin E with levothyroxine and New Xiang Ru San with Mai Men Tong were evaluated.
Results as follow: complete blood count (0%, 0 of 9), serum biochemistry (0%, 0 of 9), plasma epinephrine concentration examination (0%, 0 of 5), plasma total T4 concentration (11.1%, 1 of 9), intradermal injecting test (100%, 9 of 9), the histopathology of the skin sample to examine the sweat gland conformation (33.3% to 88.9%, 3 of 9 to 8 of 9), and evaluate the water transportation of the sweat gland cells by immunohistochemistry staining (66.7%, 6 of 9). The effects of treatment by vitamin E with levothyroxine (40%, 2 of 5) was better than by New Xiang Ru San with Mai Men Tong (0%, 0 of 4)
