What is Hyperthermic Effects on Reticuloendothelial System Particulate Uptake about?

Reticuloendothelial system (RES) particulate uptake (PU) of vascular debris in ̄uences survival from extreme hyperthermia. Little is known of the eect of extreme hyperthermia, unrelated to fever, on RES PU shortly after reaching a maximum core temperature (T c ). Relative to normothermic rats (T c =38.08C), rats at T c =42.68C had signi®cantly higher, while T c =42.08C rats had signi®cantly lower total RES tissue (lung, liver, spleen) PU of ̄uorescent microspheres (1 m), when compared to rats at T c =42.6 or 38.08C. These ®ndings suggest at T c =42.68C, rats were not actively thermoregulating. As such, more blood remained in the core than in the periphery, which resulted in greater core RES tissue PU. In contrast, to reduce or control core heat, rats at T c =42.08 or 38.08C directed more blood to the periphery, which reduced core RES tissue PU. Blood ̄ow patterns as directed by the state or degree of active thermoregulation is likely an in ̄uence of hyperthermia on RES PU. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
