Baseline autonomic and respiratory activities and the responses to chemoreflex activation (KCN) were evaluated before and after microinjections of fluorocitrate (FCt, an astrocyte metabolic inhibitor), kynurenic acid, and pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonate (PPADS) (nonselective antagonists of glutamatergic and purinergic receptors) into the rostral aspect of the caudal commissural NTS.

We also assessed the effect of sodium bicarbonate ingestion on cerebral blood flow responses, which are associated with hyperthermia-induced hyperventilation. Twelve healthy men ingested sodium bicarbonate (0.3 g/kg body weight) or sodium chloride (0.208 g/kg). One hundred minutes after the ingestion, the participants were passively heated using hot-water immersion (42°C) combined with a water-perfused suit. Increases in esophageal temperature (an index of core temperature) and minute ventilation (V̇<sub>E</sub>) during the heating were similar in the two trials.

The risk is greater in older women than in age-matched men; however, whether that reflects a greater susceptibility to heat in women, or simply population sex proportionality, is unclear. Seventy-two participants (29 M/43 F) aged 40-92 yr were exposed to progressive heat stress at a metabolic rate designed to reflect activities of daily living. Experiments were conducted in both hot-dry (HD; up to 53°C; ≤25% rh) and warm-humid (WH; ∼35°C; ≥50% rh) environments. After critical limits were determined for each condition, forward stepwise multiple linear regression analyses were conducted with net metabolic rate (M<sub>net</sub>) and age entered into the model first, followed by sex, body mass (m<sub>b</sub>), maximal oxygen consumption (V̇o<sub>2max</sub>), body surface area, and LDL cholesterol. After accounting for M<sub>net</sub> and age, sex further improved the regression model in the HD environment ([Formula: see text] = 0.34, <i>P</i> < 0.001) and the WH environment ([Formula: see text] = 0.36, <i>P</i> < 0.005).
