Abstract
Heat stress and nitrite/nitrate poisoning have a complex and in some respects similar effect on the body, due to their ability to cause hypoxia. Studying their complex effects is critical to understanding their impact on the body in the context of modern environmental. The study compared the effect of heat stress, sodium nitrite () alone and their combined effect on the body of rats. It was found that the combined effect of heat stress and nitrite poisoning leads to more significant imbalances in the body of rats, which manifest themselves in the form of hypoxia, oxidative stress and changes in biochemical parameters. Pronounced changes were observed in the group of animals exposed to simultaneous sodium nitrite and heat stress, indicating their synergistic effect. These changes include: a decrease in blood oxygenation to 80 % before death (compared to 99.1 % in control at 19 °C), a reduction in life expectancy after administration to 7.2 min (compared to 12.1 min at 19 °C and the same dose of ), changes in heart rate and body temperature indicating impaired circulation and thermoregulation. Significant antioxidant and biochemical changes were observed in the groups exposed to combined stress and a significant increase in cholesterol levels (∼11 times). The analysis of protein interactions showed that Hif1a is a key regulator of adaptive responses, which coordinates the stress response through interaction with proteins of different functional clusters.
