Research Abstract |
Microneurographically recorded skin sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA) contains sudomotor and vasoconstrictor activities. We investigated how ambient temperature modulates these two activities using double recording technique of microneurography, simultaneously from the tibial and the peroneal nerves, in normohidrosis and sweating disorders. Simultaneous measurement of sweat expulsion and skin blood flow under neutral ambient temperature enables this differentiation, but it might be difficult under high and low ambient temperatures due to uncertain effector response. Based on the changes in effector organs under neutral temperature, we made interspike interval histogram (ISIH), and challenged the differentiation of the tibial and peroneal SSNA_s under high (35゚C) and low (15゚C) ambient temperatures by using the spike matching method. The differentiation was turned out to be possible to sudomotor and vasoconstrictor impulses under any ambient temperature not only in burst level, but also in spike level. Moreover, the regional differentiation of sympathetic nerve activity became manifested as the differences in sympathetic nerve activities supplying glabrous and hairy skin by warming or cooling the ambient temperatures. Ambient temperature rise induced activation of vasodilative component in SSNA in the peroneal but not in the tibial in the normohidrosis, however, enhancement of tibial sudomotor and vasoconstrictor activities were manifested in the tibial nerve in palmoplantar hyperhidrosis. Lowering the ambient temperature suppresses the sudomotor activity in the peroneal, whereas it activates in the tibial. These results suggest significant findings in analyzing the effects of ambient temperature and mental stress on thermoregulation of human body temperature.
