Abstract
Understanding physiological mechanisms of tolerance to heat exposure, and potential ways to improve such tolerance, is increasingly important in the context of ongoing climate change. We discuss the concept of heat tolerance in humans and experimental models (primarily rodents), including intracellular mechanisms and improvements in tolerance with heat acclimation.
