Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${
