Abstract

Koža je najveći organ na tijelu koji ima zaštitnu, osjetnu i regulatornu funkciju. Lošom brigom i pod utjecajem raznih čimbenika koža može biti podložna raznim bolestima. Iako genetika regulira razvoj organa, na fenotip jedinki imaju utjecaj i vanjski čimbenici koji mogu biti ključni za pojavu bolesti. Stoga je za provođenje uspješne terapije potrebno postavljanje ispravne dijagnoze i pronalazak uzročnika. Važno je pokušati smanjiti mogućnost prijenosa genetskih uzročnika kožnih bolesti na daljnje potomke. Takve metode mogu se primijeniti jedino ukoliko nam je poznata genetska pozadina jedinke. Zdrave, skladne, izdržljive i otporne životinje koje će dati iste takve potomke cilj su svake proizvodnje, tako i kod konja. Važno je da konji nisu oboljeli nekom od kožnih bolesti jer to ujedno znači i da im je narušeno opće zdravstveno stanje organizma. Kod konja se pokazuje značajan interes za vanjštinu, osobito kod onih koji se koriste u svrhe razonode i sporta. Sve više se ulaže u otkrivanje, dijagnosticiranje i provođenje uspješnih terapija kod konja.

Abstract (english)

The skin is the largest organ on the body that has a protective, sensory, and regulatory function. With poor care and under the influence of various factors, the skin can be susceptible to various diseases. Although genetics regulate the development of organs, the phenotype of individuals is also influenced by external factors that can be crucial for the appearance of disease. Therefore, to carry out successful therapy, it is necessary to make a right diagnosis and find the causative agent. It is important to try to reduce the possibility of transmission of genetic causes of skin diseases to further offspring. Such methods can only be applied if we know the genetic background of the individual. The goal of every production, including horses are healthy, harmonious, hardy, and resistant animals that will produce the same offspring as they are. It is important that the horses are not suffering from any of the skin diseases, because this also means that their general health condition is impaired. There is a significant interest in horse exterior, especially those used for leisure and sport. More and more investments are being made in discovering, diagnosing, and implementing successful therapies in horse diseases.
