Body Temperature Regulation in Hot Environments. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Organisms in hot environments will not be able to passively dissipate metabolically generated heat. Instead, they have to revert to evaporative cooling, a process that is energetically expensive and promotes excessive water loss. To alleviate these costs,

Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) channels are involved in body temperature regulation [PDF]
Molecular Pain, 2012 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 regulation: Sasang typology-based perspective [PDF]
Integrative Medicine Research, 2015 Global warming induces a dramatic elevation of heat-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Individual variation of heat stress vulnerability depends on various factors such as age, gender, living area and conditions, health status, and individual ...

Body temperature regulation in diabetes. [PDF]
Temperature (Austin), 2016 The effects of type 1 and type 2 diabetes on the body's physiological response to thermal stress is a relatively new topic in research. Diabetes tends to place individuals at greater risk for heat-related illness during heat waves and physical activity due to an impaired capacity to dissipate heat.

Regulation of Body Temperature by the Nervous System [PDF]
Neuron, 2018 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
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2000 : 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 ...

Preoptic leptin signaling modulates energy balance independent of body temperature regulation [PDF]
eLife, 2018 The adipokine leptin acts on the brain to regulate energy balance but specific functions in many brain areas remain poorly understood. Among these, the preoptic area (POA) is well known to regulate core body temperature by controlling brown fat ...
