“…But horses having a higher frequency of interaction with their owners tend to receive more nutritional attention; a proposition that is supported by others who observe that people caring for fewer horses tend to have horses that are more overweight than people who are caring for a greater number of horses (Hitchens, Hultgren, Frössling, Emanuelson, & Keeling, ). Further support for the role of AL is evidence that high intensity exercise increases PL‐PGE 2 in equine (Lindinger, MacNicol, Karrow, & Pearson, ) and human athletes under acute exercise conditions (Capó, Martorell, Sureda, Riera et al., ; Capó, Martorell, Sureda, Tur, & Pons, ); an effect that may be augmented, at least in part, by increased production of PGE 2 by polymorphonuclear cells taken from trained vs untrained individuals (Capó, Martorell, Sureda, Riera et al., ). PGE 2 is an important contributor to adaptation to and/or recovery from exercise by inducing vasodilation (Capó, Martorell, Sureda, Riera et al., ), muscle hypertrophy (Burd et al., ) and resolution of inflammation (Serhan, ).…”
