1. Heart rate increased with a rise in body temperature (10-30 degrees C) and with induced physical exercise in snapping turtles. 2. Maximum heart rate increment occurred at 30 degrees C. 3. Standard oxygen pulse did not change with a rise in temperature. 4. Oxygen pulse during exercise and oxygen pulse increment were maximal at 10 degrees C and minimal at 20 degrees C. 5. The increase in heart rate with exercise accounted for only 9-22% of the increase in oxygen transport during activity; the remainder was provided by a rise in cardiac stroke volume and/or A-V difference. 相似文献

Three turtles, Clemmys insculpta, were kept together in a terrarium in a climatic chamber at 18 degrees C, with lights on at 07:00 h and off at 19:00 h. In one corner of the terrarium an infrared lamp produced an operative temperature of 42.5 degrees C, thereby allowing behavioral temperature regulation during the light period. When the turtles were handled only once a day for the purpose of taking cloacal temperature, their body temperature held stable at about 22-23 degrees C. Immediately after being handled the turtles sought the radiant heat and regulated their body temperature at about 4 degrees C higher than before the handling. When repeatedly handled every 15 min for 2 h the turtles maintained a high body temperature by their behavior. When not repeatedly handled the turtles returned to their initial preferred body temperature ca 22-23 degrees C within 2 h. It is hypothesized that handling causes in turtles a fever similar to that observed in stressed mammals. The turtles were equipped with an electrocardiogram radio transmitter and their heart rate was recorded at a distance. Heart rate in undisturbed turtles was 28.3+/-0.6 bt/min. During a 1-min handling, their heart rate rose to 40.2+/-0.8 bt/min. This tachycardia persisted several minutes, then their heart rate returned to the baseline value in ca. 10 min. Stress fever and tachycardia are taken as signs of emotion in turtles. 相似文献

Increased cell size in triploid fish likely affects rates of respiratory gas exchange. Respiratory deficiencies can be addressed in fish by adjustments in cardiac output, through changes in heart rate and stroke volume. The aim of this study was to determine whether heart rate differs between triploid and control (diploid) brook charr, Salvelinus fontinalis, at embryo-larval stages, when the heart is easily visible and the fish are relatively inactive. Heart rate was measured at 6, 9 and 12 degrees C at three developmental stages: eyed-egg, hatch and yolk absorption. Heart rate was unaffected by ploidy, but increased with temperature and age from a low of 43.4+/-2.2 beats/min (6 degrees C, eyed egg) to a high of 73.3+/-1.5 beats/min (12 degrees C, yolk absorption). The Q(10) for heart rate was unaffected by ploidy and age, but decreased with temperature from 1.99+/-0.28 at 6-9 degrees C to 1.72+/-0.17 at 9-12 degrees C. Triploid brook charr thus do not use adjustments in heart rate as a mechanism to deal with the physiological consequences of altered haematology at embryo-larval stages. 相似文献

Laboratory studies and a single field study have shown that heart rate in some reptiles is faster during heating than during cooling at any given body temperature. This phenomenon, which has been shown to reflect changes in peripheral blood flow, is shown here to occur in the lizard Varanus varius (lace monitor) in the wild. On a typical clear day, lizards emerged from their shelters in the morning to warm in the sun. Following this, animals were active, moving until they again entered a shelter in the evening. During their period of activity, body temperature was 34-36 degrees C in all six study animals (4.0-5.6 kg), but the animals rarely shuttled between sun and shade exposure. Heart rate during the morning heating period was significantly faster than during the evening cooling period. However, the ratio of heating to cooling heart rate decreased with increasing body temperature, being close to 2 at body temperatures of 22-24 degrees C and decreasing to 1.2-1.3 at body temperatures of 34-36 degrees C. There was a significant decrease in thermal time constants with increasing heart rate during heating and cooling confirming that changes in heart rate are linked to rates of heat exchange. 相似文献

Exposure to low ambient temperatures (Ta) accelerates appearance of the winter phenotype in Siberian hamsters transferred from long to short day lengths. Because melatonin transduces the effects of day length on the neuroendocrine axis, the authors assessed whether low Ta promotes the transition to winterlike traits by accelerating the onset of increased nocturnal melatonin secretion or by enhancing responsiveness to melatonin in short day lengths. Male hamsters were transferred from 16L (16 h light/day) to 8L (8 h light/day) photoperiods and held at 5 degrees C or 22 degrees C. Locomotor activity was recorded continuously, and body mass, testis size, and pelage color were determined biweekly for 8 weeks. The duration of nocturnal locomotion (alpha), a reliable indicator of the duration of nocturnal melatonin secretion, lengthened significantly earlier in hamsters exposed to a Ta of 5 degrees C than 22 degrees C. Cold exposure increased the proportion of hamsters that were photoresponsive: gonadal regression in short days increased from 44% at 22 degrees C to 81% at 5 degrees C (p < 0.05); low Ta did not, however, accelerate testicular regression in animals that were photoresponsive. Nonphotoresponsive animals at 5 degrees C temporarily had longer alphas during the first 4 weeks in short days and significant decreases in body mass and testicular size that were reversed during the ensuing weeks when alpha decreased. In a 2nd experiment, pinealectomized male hamsters infused for 10 h/day with melatonin for 2 weeks had significantly lower body and testes masses when maintained at 5 degrees C but not 22 degrees C. Low-ambient temperature appears to accelerate the appearance of the winter phenotype primarily by increasing target tissue responsiveness to melatonin and to a lesser extent by augmenting the rate at which the duration of nocturnal melatonin secretion increases in short day lengths. 相似文献

Resting subjects were immersed for 30 min in water at 22 and 30 degrees C after drinking alcohol. Total ventilation, end-tidal PCO2, rectal temperature, aural temperature, mean skin temperature, heart rate, and oxygen consumption were recorded during the experiments. Blood samples taken before the immersion period were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. The mean blood alcohol levels were 82.50 +/- 9.93 mg.(100 ml)-1 and 100.6 +/- 12.64 mg (100 ml)-1 for the immersions at 22 and 30 degrees C, respectively. There was no significant change in body temperature measured aurally or rectally, mean surface skin temperature, or heart rate at either water temperature tested. Total expired ventilation was significantly attenuated for the last 15 min of the immersion at 22 degrees C, after alcohol consumption as compared to the ventilation change in water at 22 degrees C without ethanol. This response was not consistently significantly altered during immersion in water at 30 degrees C. It is evident that during a 30-min immersion in tepid water with a high blood alcohol level, body heat loss is not affected but some changes in ventilation do occur. 相似文献

Regional blood flow and hemodynamic variables during induced hypothermia were compared in six guinea pigs and four hedgehogs. Tracer microspheres were used for blood flow measurements, since this technique is more accurate than the earlier method (86Rb+ distribution) used for cardiac output distribution measurements in hibernators. Heart rate and blood pressure decreased with reduced temperature in a comparable fashion in the two species, while cardiac output was less affected in the hedgehogs than in the guinea pigs. Total peripheral resistance increased in both species. At 34 degrees C the hedgehogs had a higher myocardial blood flow per gram tissue than the guinea pigs and it was not reduced in the hedgehogs when the body temperature was lowered to 22 degrees C, whereas in the guinea pigs it was markedly reduced. The brown adipose tissue of the hedgehogs showed a fourfold increase in blood perfusion at 22 degrees C when compared with 34 degrees C. In the hedgehogs the fractional distribution of cardiac output to the myocardium increased with decreasing body temperature, while the renal fraction decreased. In the guinea pigs, on the other hand, the fractional distribution of cardiac output to the myocardium remained unchanged but increased to the kidneys. 相似文献

The hypothesis of an oxygen-limited thermal tolerance due to restrictions in cardiovascular performance at extreme temperatures was tested in Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua (North Sea). Heart rate, changes in arterial and venous blood flow, and venous oxygen tensions were determined during an acute temperature change to define pejus ("getting worse") temperatures that border the thermal optimum range. An exponential increase in heart rate occurred between 2 and 16 degrees C (Q(10) = 2.38 +/- 0.35). Thermal sensitivity was reduced beyond 16 degrees C when cardiac arrhythmia became visible. Flow-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of temperature-dependent blood flow revealed no exponential but a hyperbolic increase of blood flow with a moderate linear increase at temperatures >4 degrees C. Therefore, temperature-dependent heart rate increments are not mirrored by similar increments in blood flow. Venous Po(2) (Pv(O(2))), which reflects the quality of oxygen supply to the heart of cod (no coronary circulation present), followed an inverse U-shaped curve with highest Pv(O(2)) levels at 5.0 +/- 0.2 degrees C. Thermal limitation of circulatory performance in cod set in below 2 degrees C and beyond 7 degrees C, respectively, characterized by decreased Pv(O(2)). Further warming led to a sharp drop in Pv(O(2)) beyond 16.1 +/- 1.2 degrees C in accordance with the onset of cardiac arrhythmia and, likely, the critical temperature. In conclusion, progressive cooling or warming brings cod from a temperature range of optimum cardiac performance into a pejus range, when aerobic scope falls before critical temperatures are reached. These patterns might cause a shift in the geographical distribution of cod with global warming. 相似文献

Differential heart rates during heating and cooling (heart rate hysteresis) are an important thermoregulatory mechanism in ectothermic reptiles. We speculate that heart rate hysteresis has evolved alongside vascularisation, and to determine whether this phenomenon occurs in a lineage with vascularised circulatory systems that is phylogenetically distant from reptiles, we measured the response of heart rate to convective heat transfer in the Australian freshwater crayfish, Cherax destructor. Heart rate during convective heating (from 20 to 30 degrees C) was significantly faster than during cooling for any given body temperature. Heart rate declined rapidly immediately following the removal of the heat source, despite only negligible losses in body temperature. This heart rate 'hysteresis' is similar to the pattern reported in many reptiles and, by varying peripheral blood flow, it is presumed to confer thermoregulatory benefits particularly given the thermal sensitivity of many physiological rate functions in crustaceans. 相似文献

We studied interindividual variation in body temperature and energy expenditure, the relation between these two, and the effect of mild decrease in environmental temperature (16 vs. 22 degrees C) on both body temperature and energy expenditure. Nine males stayed three times for 60 h (2000-0800) in a respiration chamber, once at 22 degrees C and twice at 16 degrees C, in random order. Twenty-four-hour energy expenditure, thermic effect of food, sleeping metabolic rate, activity-induced energy expenditure, and rectal and skin temperatures were measured. A rank correlation test with data of 6 test days showed significant interindividual variation in both rectal and skin temperatures and energy expenditures adjusted for body composition. Short-term exposure of the subjects to 16 degrees C caused a significant decrease in body temperature (both skin and core), an increase in temperature gradients, and an increase in energy expenditure. The change in body temperature gradients was negatively related to changes in energy expenditure. This shows that interindividual differences exist with respect to the relative contribution of metabolic and insulative adaptations to cold. 相似文献

Heart rate and oxygen consumption were measured simultaneously in albino rats. These measurements were carried out in the resting animal at different temperatures between 18 degrees and 33 degrees C. The metabolism evolution with the environmental temperature allowed to place the thermal neutrality at 29 degrees C. The resting heart rate varies as metabolism. It shows the lowest values round the thermoneutrality and increases quickly as the environment is cooling. This result shows the effect of the thermal environment upon the resting heart rate level. On the other hand, the non linear relationship between metabolism and heart rate points out that the heart rate increase is not the only factor that allows an increased oxygen consumption during the body temperature regulation. 相似文献

Heart rate (HR) of ground squirrel C. undulatus was studied in dependence of season, level of activity, physiological state and air temperature (T). In summer HR varies from 110-130 beat/min in sleep up to 420 beat/min at flight from danger. During winter hibernation HP was minimal (3-5 beat/min) at T 1-4 degrees C, the increase in T induced the growth of HP in correspondence to the Arrenius van't Hoff law. The temperature of the body in hibernation exceeded T on 1.5-3 degrees C. The time of getting off the hibernation increased with the decrease in T (6-7 hours at -1 degree C and 2.5-3 hours at +18 degrees C). At phase of increased thermogenesis during arousal heart temperature exceeded rectal one on 10-12 degrees C and heart rate run up to 360-420 beat/min i.e. 2-3 time higher than in active state. The decrease in T stimulated the increase in HP up to 3.8 in winter and 5.3 beat/min/degree C in summer. The highest values of Q10 for HP were revealed at the beginning of hibernation (15-20) and at the beginning of arousal (6-7), in other periods Q10 was similar to the normal biological values (2-2.5). Thus, at the beginning of transitional periods changes of HP were determined mainly by endogenic mechanisms that inhibited myocardium at the beginning of hibernation and activated in arousal. Some mechanisms of coordination between activities of heart and other systems of organism are considered. The features of hit exchange providing the hibernation in wide range of T are discussed. 相似文献

Heart and respiration rates were measured in eight 6-week-old, White Rock chicks at different ambient temperatures: 24--26 degrees C (neutral), 6.5--8.5 degrees C (low) and 3,95--43.5 degrees C (high). The animals were exposed to these temperatures for 10 min. In both groups the low ambient temperature did not influence the respiration rate, whereas the high temperature caused a significant increase of the respiration rates both in the conscious and anaesthetized birds. In both groups no significant changes in the heart rate at different temperatures were found. Statistically significant differences in the heart and respiration rates between the conscious and anaesthetized chickens were noted only at the low environmental temperature. 相似文献

To determine whether metabolic rate is suppressed in a temperature-independent fashion in the golden-mantled ground squirrel during steady state hibernation, we measured body temperature and metabolic rate in ground squirrels during hibernation at different T(a)'s. In addition, we attempted to determine whether heart rate, ventilation rate, and breathing patterns changed as a function of body temperature or metabolic rate. We found that metabolic rate changed with T(a) as it was raised from 5 degrees to 14 degrees C, which supports the theory that different species sustain falls in metabolic rate during hibernation in different ways. Heart rate and breathing pattern also changed with changing T(a), while breathing frequency did not. That the total breathing frequency did not correlate closely with oxygen consumption or body temperature, while the breathing pattern did, raises important questions regarding the mechanisms controlling ventilation during hibernation. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of temperature on growth and aerobic metabolism in clones of Daphnia magna from different thermal regimes. Growth rate (increment in size), somatic juvenile growth rate (increment in mass), and oxygen consumption were measured at 15 and 25 degrees C in 21 clones from one northern and two southern sites. There were no significant differences in body size and growth rate (increase in length) at both 15 and 25 degrees C among the three sites. Clones from southern site 2 had a higher mass increment than clones from the other two sites at both temperatures. Clone had a significant effect on growth (body length) and body size at both temperatures. As expected, age at maturity was lower at 25 degrees C (4.5 days) than at 15 degrees C, (11.6 days) and body sizes, after the release of the third clutch, were larger at 15 degrees C than at 25 degrees C. Northern clones had higher oxygen consumption rates and specific dynamic action (SDA) than southern clones at 15 degrees C. By contrast, southern clones from site 1 had a higher oxygen consumption and SDA than subarctic clones at 25 degrees C. Clones from southern site 2 had high oxygen consumption rates at both temperatures. Our results reveal important differences in metabolic rates among Daphnia from different thermal regimes, which were not always reflected in growth rate differences. 相似文献

The minnow (Phoxinus phoxinus) was raised up to the stage of swim bladder inflation at temperatures between 10 degrees C and 25 degrees C, and the time of development significantly decreased at higher temperatures. Accordingly, initiation of cardiac activity was observed at day 2 in 25 degrees C animals and at day 4 in 12.5 degrees C animals. Only a minor increase in body mass was observed during the incubation period, and, at the end of the incubation period, animals raised at 25 degrees C did not have a significantly lower body mass compared with animals raised at 15 degrees C. Metabolic activity, determined as the rate of oxygen consumption of a larva, increased from 3.3 to 19.5 nmol/h during development at 15 degrees C and from 5.6 to 47.6 nmol/h during development at 25 degrees C. Heart rate showed a clear correlation to developmental stage as well as to developmental temperature, but at the onset of cardiac activity, diastolic ventricular volume and also stroke volume were higher at the lower temperatures. Furthermore, stroke volume increased with development, except for the group incubated at 12.5 degrees C, in which stroke volume decreased with development. Initial cardiac output showed no correlation to incubation temperature. Although metabolic activity increased severalfold during development from egg to the stage of swim bladder inflation at 15 degrees C and at 25 degrees C, weight-specific cardiac output increased only by approximately 40% with proceeding development. At 12.5 degrees C, cardiac output remained almost constant until opening of the swim bladder. The data support the notion that oxygen transport is not the major function of the circulatory system at this stage of development. The changes in heart rate with temperature appear to be due to the intrinsic properties of the pacemaker; there was no indication for a regulated response. 相似文献

Diabetes mellitus is associated with a variety of cardiovascular complications including impaired cardiac muscle function. The effects of insulin treatment on heart rate, body temperature and physical activity in the alloxan (ALX)-induced diabetic rat were investigated using in vivo biotelemetry techniques. The electrocardiogram, physical activity and body temperature were recorded in vivo with a biotelemetry system for 10 days before ALX treatment, for 20 days following administration of ALX (120 mg/kg) and thereafter, for 15 days whilst rats received daily insulin. Heart rate declined rapidly after administration of ALX. Pre-ALX heart rate was 321+/-9 beats per minute, falling to 285+/-12 beats per minute 15-20 days after ALX and recovering to 331+/-10 beats per minute 5-10 days after commencement of insulin. Heart rate variability declined and PQ, QRS and QT intervals were prolonged after administration of ALX. Physical activity and body temperature declined after administration of ALX. Pre-ALX body temperature was 37.6+/-0.1 °C, falling to 37.3+/-0.1 °C 15-20 days after ALX and recovering to 37.8+/-0.1 °C 5-10 days after commencement insulin. ALX-induced diabetes is associated with disturbances in heart rhythm, physical activity and body temperature that are variously affected during insulin treatment. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that immersion hypothermia enhances the diving capabilities of adult and juvenile muskrats by reducing rates of oxygen consumption (V O2). Declines in abdominal body temperature (T(b)) comparable to those observed in nature (0.5-3.5 degrees C) were induced by pre-chilling animals in 6 degrees C water. Pre-chilling did not reduce diving V O2 of any animal tested in 10 degrees C or 30 degrees C water, irrespective of the nature of the dive. Most behavioural indices of dive performance, including average and cumulative dive times, were unaffected by T(b) reduction in adults, but depressed in hypothermic juveniles (200-400 g). Hypothermia reduced diving heart rate only on short (<25s) dives (16% reduction, P=0.01), but did not affect the temporal onset of diving bradycardia. Post-immersion V O2 was higher for pre-chilled than for normothermic muskrats, but the difference became insignificant on longer (>90 s) dives. Our findings suggest that the mild hypothermia experienced by muskrats in nature has minimal effect on diving and post-immersion metabolic costs, and thus has little impact on the dive performance of this northern semi-aquatic mammal. 相似文献

Many ectotherms regularly experience considerable short-term variations in environmental temperature, which affects their body temperature. Here we investigate the cardiovascular responses to a stepwise acute temperature increase from 10 to 13 and 16 degrees C in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Cardiac output increased by 20 and 31% at 13 and 16 degrees C, respectively. This increase was entirely mediated by an increased heart rate (fH), whereas stroke volume (SV) decreased significantly by 20% at 16 degrees C. The mean circulatory filling pressure (MCFP), a measure of venous capacitance, increased with temperature. Central venous pressure (Pven) did not change, whereas the pressure gradient for venous return (MCFP-Pven) was significantly increased at both 13 and 16 degrees C. Blood volume, as measured by the dilution of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells, was temperature insensitive in both intact and splenectomized trout. This study demonstrates that venous capacitance in trout decreases, but cardiac filling pressure as estimated by Pven does not change when cardiac output increases during an acute temperature increase. SV was compromised as fH increased with temperature. The decreased capacitance likely serves to prevent passive pooling of blood in the venous periphery and to maintain cardiac filling pressure and a favorable pressure gradient for venous return. 相似文献

Arrest of respiration and heart activity in new-born rats aged 3-4 days and 10-11 days was shown to occur at a body temperature 6-7 degrees C and 2-3 degrees C lower than in adult rats, resp. At room temperature the body temperature of profoundly cooled rat's litter gradually increases and the functions are restored. In 3-4-day old rats, at the body temperature rising from profound cooling to 15-18 degrees C, the respiration and heart rates are 2-4-fold more than at the same temperature attained from the normal body temperature. These differences in the respiration and heart rates at the same body temperature suggest an inversion of the Arrhenius law (the Q10 coefficient) for physiological functions in early ontogenesis. This effect completely disappears in 10-11-day old rats. 相似文献
