  • Resumen
    • Exercise alone or in combination with environmental heat stress can elevate blood S-100[beta] protein concentrations. However, the explanatory power of exercise with marked environmental heat stress on the appearance of S-100[beta] is questionable. It is possible that the process of heat acclimation might afford additional insight.

      Purpose: Determine the S-100[beta] response to moderate-intensity exercise with heat strain before and after heat acclimation.

      Methods: Nine healthy male volunteers completed 10 consecutive days of heat acclimation consisting of up to 100 min of treadmill walking (1.56 m[middle dot]s-1, 4% grade) in the heat (45[degrees]C, 20% relative humidity). Changes in HR, rectal temperature (Tre), and sweat rate (SR) were examined to determine successful acclimation. Area under the curve (AUC) for Tre greater than 38.5[degrees]C was calculated to assess cumulative hyperthermia. Blood samples were taken before and after exercise on days 1 and 10 and were analyzed for serum osmolality and S-100[beta] concentration.

      Results: All subjects displayed physiological adaptations to heat acclimation including a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in final HR (161 to 145 bpm) and Tre (39.0 to 38.4[degrees]C), as well as a modest (~10%) increase in SR (1.10 to 1.20 L[middle dot]h-1; P = 0.09). No differences were observed in pre- to postexercise serum S-100[beta] concentrations on day 1 or 10, and no differences were observed in S-100[beta] values between days 1 and 10. No significant correlations were found between S-100[beta] values and any variable of interest.

      Conclusions: S-100[beta] concentrations do not necessarily increase in response to exercise-heat strain, and no effect of heat acclimation on S-100[beta] could be observed despite other quantifiable physiological adaptations.
