Cold resistance of mammalian hibernators ∼ a matter of ferroptosis? [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyMost mammals adapt thermal physiology around 37°C and large deviations from their range, as observed in severe hypothermia and hyperthermia, resulting in organ dysfunction and individual death. A prominent exception is mammalian hibernation.
