Regulation of Body Temperature by the Nervous System [PDF]
The regulation of body temperature is one of the most critical functions of the nervous system. Here we review our current understanding of thermoregulation in mammals. We outline the molecules and cells that measure body temperature in the periphery, the neural pathways that communicate this information to the brain, and the central circuits that ...

EFFECTS OF COLD ON BODY TEMPERATURE REGULATION OF WILD TURKEYS
: In northern latitudes, many bird species conserve energy during cold periods by decreasing their resting phase body temperature (Tb). We evaluated the influence of cold stress on Tb regulation of wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) during ...

Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) channels are involved in body temperature regulation [PDF]
Background Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 (TRPM8) is activated by cold temperature in vitro and has been demonstrated to act as a ‘cold temperature sensor’ in vivo.

Body temperature and its regulation
Abstract Humans are homeotherms, i.e. they fix their temperature regardless of their environment. This is vital for normal cellular function and for metabolism to be independent of external temperature. The body has a warm ‘core’ and a cooler peripheral ‘shell’ whose role is to regulate heat transfer in and out of the core.
