title: [Analysis of thermal phenomena in erythrocytes from scorpionfish (Scorpaena porcus L.)].
abstract: The ability of erythrocytes from marine teleost scorpionfish (S. porcus L.) to produce heat was investigated in vitro with the help of a special designed cell, built with a sensitive temperature sensor HEL-700. It is shown that a suspension of washed red blood cells produced heat for a long time, but with the addition of extracellular ATP the phenomenon of thermal spike was observed. It is assumed that the observed effect is provided by ATP cleavage with generation of heat by ecto-ATPase of the plasma membrane of red blood cells of fish.
