Validity and application of immunoturbidimetric and enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays for the measurement of adiponectin concentration in ponies

Abstract: The IT method is suitable for measurement of equine TAC. TAC is lower in ponies with previous or future laminitis. The ELISA methods are not suitable for measurement of equine HMWAC or TAC.

“…Therefore, the ELISA was revalidated as part of this study. Equine samples were separately pooled from ponies with expected high and low adiponectin concentrations based on their post-prandial insulin concentration [30]. Assay precision was determined by the coefficient of variation (CV) among six replicates of the pooled ‘high’ sample.…”

“…In horses, both HMW and total adiponectin are associated with obesity and ID, and low total concentrations are identified as a risk factor for future laminitis. An immunoturbidimetric assay has recently been validated for total adiponectin in equine samples . Leptin concentrations are useful in the prediction of laminitic episodes in ponies although they appear better associated with fat mass rather than ID in horses and therefore have the potential to mislead in EMS investigation …”

“…Although serum leptin concentration correlates well with adipose tissue mass, there is little correlation with ID and laminitis risk, making its value over clinical assessment limited (Buff et al, 2002;Bamford et al, 2016a), and it is not currently offered commercially in the UK. Adiponectin production typically decreases with increasing adiposity, though this is breed and diet dependent (Bamford et al, 2016b), and low total adiponectin concentration is associated with risk of laminitis (Wray et al, 2013;Schultz et al, 2014;Menzies-Gow et al, 2018), such that adiponectin is a potentially useful marker of pathological adiposity. Of the tests that are offered in the UK, only an immunoturbidometric assay for total adiponectin has been shown to be reliable and to correlate with laminitis risk; other methods generate inconsistent results (Menzies-Gow et al, 2018).…”
