Heat stress response in the cave nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea differs from that of Mus musculus

Abstract Bats as the only flying mammals incur a high metabolic cost during extended powered flight, which results in febrile-like temperatures without injury. Herein, we investigate the in vivo heat shock response (HSR) in the cave nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea. We demonstrate that E. spelaea exhib...
