Le Sommeil Hibernal

Abstract: Résumé 1. La calorification des hibernants endormis est de2,0 à 2,5 Calories par kilo et 24 heures pour les espéces dont le poids oscille entre 200 et 2200 g. Les deux espéces étudiées a la même température (10o C.) qui ne péssent que 20 g. (muscardin et chauve‐souris) ont une calorification ?intensitéá peu prés double. Quand on raméne la production de chaleur des hibernants á la surface (S = 10 × P½), on constate que les especes de 20 a 250 g. (chauve‐souris, muscardin, loir, spermo‐phile) produisent environ1… Show more

“…Variations in the body weight exhibit a significant decline during hibernation (or quiescent phase) and a further decrease at the time of arousal. Simi lar findings have been obtained in a number of hibernating species [Zalesky, 1934[Zalesky, ,1935Deane and Lyman, 1954;Zarrow, 1958a, 1959b;Hock, 1960;Popovic, 1960;McKeever, 1963McKeever, , 1964, Changes in the endocrine activities in this species show a correlation with the repro ductive phases, as has also been worked out by Skowron and Zajaczek [1947] in the hedgehog and by Kayser [1950Kayser [ , 1961 in various dormice. This correlation, however, does not exist in all the hibernating species [McKeever, 1966].…”

“…How ever, the activities of the endocrine organs of small hibernating mammals exhibit more pronounced fluctuations than the non hibernating species [Eisentraut, 1956], Sev eral earlier reports indicate involution of the anterior pituitary, thyroid and the adrenal cortex in hibernating mammals [ConinxGirardet, 1927;Foster and Meyer, 1939;Skowron and Zajaczek, 1947;Kayser, 1950Kayser, , 1961. Further, in hibernating species there is some evidence of hyperactivity of the adrenal and the thyroid in the early spring which appears to be associated with the sea sonal sexual activity [Zalesky, 1934[Zalesky, , 1935Foster, 1934;Kayser, 1950Kayser, , 1961Girodet al, 1967], A detailed statistical analysis of the monthly and the seasonal variations in the body weight, and the dimensional characteristics and the weights of the thy roid, adrenal and the testis, are largely lack ing [McKeever, 1966]. Therefore, the pres- Values given are average mean ( ± SE) of the right and left organ of each animal in the given phase.…”

“…When the environmental temperature is decreased markedly, the chemical heat regulation of the homoiotherm deteriorates; the animal no longer can combat the l o s s of heat due to cold, and its internal temperature falls rapidly. T h i s drop in the cell temperature is accompanied by a lowering of metabolism corresponding, though with markedly different quantitative relations, t o the lowering of the metabolism in the poikilotherm (Benedict, 1932;Kayser, 1950). Conversely, with greatly increased environmental temperatures, the physical thermoregulatory mechanisms (consisting in large part of vaporization of water) of the homoiotherm are adversely affected.…”

“…During their hibernating period, the hibernators behave like true poikilotherms: their body temperature reacts slowly to t h e environmental temperature, but follows i t s general course (Dontcheff and Kayser, 1935a;Kayser, 1939aKayser, , 1940aKayser, and 1950Eisentraut, 1934 andBenedict and Lee, 1938). However, the heat production of hibernators at different temperatures differs from that of perfect poikilotherms.…”

“…Though most of the hibemators arc known to burn fat during hibernation (Benedict and Lee [1938]: Kayser [1949];and Oliver and Johnson [1955]), there are many reports regarding the existence of species variation in the metabolic pattern depending upon the difference in the nature of energy storage (Lyman and Chatfield [1955]). This difference has led to many confusing results and at present the actual mechanism of carbohydrate metabolism, though studied extensively in different species (Lyman and Chatfield [1955]; Suomalainen 11935]; and Kayser [1950]) is still not clearly understood.…”
