The pyrogenic mediator prostaglandin E2 elicits warmth seeking via EP3 receptor‐expressing parabrachial neurons: a potential mechanism of chills

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During infection, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is produced and elicits warmth‐seeking behaviour and involuntary febrile responses by acting on prostaglandin EP3 receptors (EP3Rs) in two distinct brain sites. PGE2 acting on EP3Rs on neurons in the external lateral part of the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBel) augments cold sensory ...
