Exertional heat stroke leads to concurrent long‐term epigenetic memory, immunosuppression and altered heat shock response in female mice

Abstract excerpt

KEY POINTS: Exposure to exertional heat stroke (EHS) has been linked to increased long-term decrements of health. Epigenetic reprogramming is involved in the response to heat acclimation; however, whether the long-term effects of EHS are mediated by epigenetic reprogramming is unknown. In female mice, we observed DNA methylation reprogramming in bone marrow-derived (BMD) monocytes as early as 4 days of recovery...
