| Abstract | Although the horses are well designed to support the exercise of high impact, chronic realization effort can induce endogenous tensions that affect the body's defenses and favor the attack by exogenous agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of taming training in hematological, biochemical, physical and serum mediators of equine oxidative stress used in the mounted police. Horses (n=10) from EPMONT were selected for the preparatory taming program of mounted police service. The physiology was assessed by measuring heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) and temperature (ToC). Blood samples were taken on a rest day (D0), the next day (D1), three months after D1, the first day of street stage (D2), 15 days (D3) and 30 days (D4) after early phase of the street. For each day, the animal was clinically observed by physical examination and blood samples were taken before and after training. Samples were used to access hematological and biochemical parameters. To evaluate serum mediators of oxidative stress, samples were used from the days D0, D1, D2 and D4, after exercise. Results were expressed as mean ± standard error. All data were analyzed using statistical software GraphpadPrism® 5.0 with p≤0.05. Significant increase was found in HR, RR, ToC levels, and in RBCs, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total leukocytes, urea, creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, creatinekinase, alkaline phosphatase and albumin after exercise, compared to before.In addition, our results showed that despite a rise in body temperature, serum levels of nitric oxide, reactive to thiobarbituric acid and albumin did not differ significantly in the days evaluated after exercise.In conclusion the training tames cause major changes in physiological parameters, hematological and biochemical horses, but did not cause imbalance in the oxidant-antioxidant system according to the parameters evaluated. Therefore, efficient taming training protocols undergoing equine should be evaluated, since they may promote good performance of these animals not reflecting the change in homeostasis.
