  • Title: [Salivation during hyperthermia in human beings (author's transl)].
    Author: Massonnet B, Cabanac M.
    Journal: J Physiol (Paris); 1980 Nov; 76(6):601-3. PubMed ID: 7441570.
    Abstract:
    In numerous species, saliva secretion is an important thermolytic response to hyperthermia. The aim of the present work was to look for a thermolytic saliva secretion in human beings. Saliva collected by cannulation was not secreted more during active or passive hyperthermia than during control periods. Therefore, it can be concluded that saliva secretion has no thermoregulatory role in human beings.
