Abstract:BackgroundNebulized administration of dexamethasone on cytokine regulation in horses with moderate asthma has not been investigated.ObjectiveTo investigate the changes in expression of inflammatory cytokine mRNA after nebulized administration of dexamethasone treatment of horses with moderate asthma.AnimalsHorses with naturally occurring moderate asthma (n = 16) and healthy control horses (n = 4). All horses were kept in a dusty environment during the study.MethodsProspective, parallel, randomized, controlled,… Show more
