Target Information
Thyroxine, or T4, is the primary hormone generated by the thyroid gland. There are two forms of T4: one that binds to proteins in the blood and another that circulates freely without binding. Free T4 testing evaluates the unbound T4 in the bloodstream, which can enter and affect body tissues. A previous research showed that, after 4-day food deprivation, horses had significantly decreased FT4 concentrations (maximum decrease of 38%) and then gradually returned to baseline levels after refeeding. This suggests that food deprivation has a significant effect on FT4 concentration.
