Abstract

The classical concept of heat acclimation is of an autonomically controlled array of integrative physiological processes, improving heat tolerance. New evidence suggests that a temporal interplay between opposing autonomic and peripheral cell-originated responses, switched on by heat and autonomic stimulation of the cell membrane, and a marked increase in the stock of the inducible 70-kDa heat shock protein contribute to widening of the thermoregulatory activity span.
