Resumo
Tremorgenic syndrome is a mycotoxicosis caused by toxins from a number of fungi found in plants, cereals and its sub-products. These toxins are able to provoke muscular tremors, ataxia, incoordination and hyperexcitability in cattle, horses, goats and sheep. Several physiopathological abnormalities have been described as a consequence of mycotoxins intake such as increased release of transmitter amino acids aspartate, glutamate, and gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA) from the corpus striatum synaptosomes. This report aimed to describe the clinical, epidemiological, physiopathological, and diagnostic features as well as the therapeutic approach to the tremorgenic syndrome in sixteen crossbred Gir dairy animals, kept under extensive system.
