Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) was utilized for investigating the effect of hyperthermia followed by apneic hypoxia in rats. They were heated whole-bodily to 41° C for 15 min under the control of an artificial rodent ventilator, after drug-induced generalized paralysis. A transcutaneous oxygen saturation monitor was applied to detect the hypoxic condition. EEG was monitored with bipolar needle electrodes. The 72-kDa heatshock protein (HSP72) in brain was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis, followed by immunostaining with an anti-HSP72 antibody. There was no difference in the time interval from onset of apneic hypoxia to flat EEG between the hyperthermic and control groups, but cortical electrical activity appeared earlier in the hyperthermia group than the control group, after 90 s of ventilation interruption. The cardiac function did not change in the two groups. The HSP72 synthesis significantly increased in the brain of the rats with hyperthermic treatment.
