Thus, genetically inherited conditions are categorized as being sex linked e.g., X linked or autosomal . Females have two X chromosomes while males only have a single X chromosome, and a genetic abnormality located on the X chromosome is much more likely to cause clinical disease in a male who lacks the possibility of having the normal gene present on any other chromosome than in a female who is able to compensate for the one abnormal X chromosome .

Refimprove date June 2007 EPSM or Equine Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy is a muscle disease most commonly associated with heavy horse breeds. Common heavy horse breeds in the United States include the Clydesdale horse Clydesdale , Shire horse Shire , Belgian Draft or Belgian horse Belgian , Suffolk Punch and Percheron . EPSM may also occur in the American Quarter Horse and other light horse breeds or draft mules and horses that have draft lineage. The Quarter Horse community calls the condition PSSM Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy . EPSM may, less commonly, be found in most other breeds including Standardbred, Arab and Thoroughbred. Nature of the Condition EPSM is a genetic predisposition to fail to digest grains properly in the horse. The result leads to damage to muscle tissue during exertion. It is estimated by DNA testing that approximately two thirds of all draft horses have the predisposition for EPSM. ref http www.ruralheritage.com vet clinic epsm.htm Rural Heritage Vet Clinic Rural Heritage ref A Biopsy biopsy test can determine whether the horse has EPSM. An endocrine test after exercise may detect EPSM related muscle damage. EPSM can be fatal to affected horses. Diagnosis While many heavy horses have the predisposition for EPSM, most do not show symptoms. What triggers the condition from predisposition to active threat is not known. It may be that unexpected changes in work or diet cause the horse to lock up or over conserve electrolytes, causing failure of normal neuronal controls. The active result, failure to properly digest starches and sugars from grains, leads to a general system effect. The muscle tissues showing effect or damage varies widely. EPSM is not commonly diagnosed from symptoms, but rather by ruling out other potential causes for symptoms. The three primary techniques for confirming a diagnosis of EPSM are Try the added fats diet therapy for 4 6 months. If the horse improves, then EPSM is a likely suspect, and the horse is 4 6 months along ... more details
