Body temperature, blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) of rats before and after acclimation to heat were studied in chronically cannulated sedentary conscious rats in different hot environmental conditions [hot/dry: 40 degrees C, 20% relative humidity (RH) and hot/wet: 35 degrees C, 70% RH]. During exposure to heat stress, acclimated rats showed an attenuated increase in colonic temperature (Tc) compared to non-acclimated rats. Concomitantly, an abrupt decrease in HR, delayed and attenuated elevation in mean arterial BP and improved cardiac efficiency were recorded. Differences were observed upon exposure to the hot/wet and hot/dry climates: the hot/dry climate imposed a greater physiological burden than the hot/wet climate. The data suggest that for sedentary rats dry heat produces a greater load than humid heat. Thus, the conventional heat load indices do not apply universally but have a thermoregulatory pattern specificity.
