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 ...

Body temperature regulation in mice resuscitated from deep hypothermia [PDF]
, 1963 Body temperature regulation was studied in mice following resuscitation from deep hypothermia induced by means of the closed-vessel cooling technique. Forty per cent of the animals cooled to and maintained at a colonic temperature below 5 C (lowest mean

Temperature-Dependence of Weibel-Palade Body Exocytosis and Cell Surface Dispersal of von Willebrand Factor and Its Propolypeptide [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Weibel-Palade bodies (WPB) are endothelial cell (EC) specific secretory organelles containing Von Willebrand factor (VWF). The temperature-dependence of Ca2+-driven WPB exocytosis is not known, although indirect evidence suggests that WPB ...
