The increase in blood flow through the human forearm produced by heating a cold subject is confined to the circulation in the skin (Barcroft, Bock, Hensel & Kitchin, 1955). It occurs in two phases, an initial reduction in vasoconstrictor tone followed by an active vasodilatation resulting from the activity of cholinergic nerves (Roddie, Shepherd & Whelan, 1957). It has been postulated that the latter vasodilator mechanism is secondary to sweat-gland activity and the formation of plasma kinin (bradykinin) and does not result from direct vascular innervation (Fox & Hilton, 1958). If bradykinin is involved in the increase in blood flow in the forearm of the heated subject it would be expected that sweat-gland activity would precede the vasodilatation. The present experiments are an attempt to define accurately the relationship of sweat-gland activity to blood-flow changes in the forearm during body heating.
