Abstract:INTRODUCTION
Epidemiological reports have shown an association between heat stroke and increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. Using a preclinical model of exertional heat stroke (EHS), we reported metabolic disturbances in the myocardium of female mice that emerge after 9–14 d of recovery. However, it is unknown whether these metabolic changes are accompanied by oxidative stress and inflammation in the myocardium.
PURPOSE
To determine whether EHS exposure induces oxidative stress and inflammat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
