Neural Mechanisms of Thermoregulation in the Rabbit, Oryctolagus Cuniculus
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe preoptic/anterior hypothalamus (POAH) is considered a prime integrative site for thermoregulatory control in mammals. Certain neurotropic agents can alter the activity of the POAH and thus affect thermoregulatory control. The major objective of this study is to investigate the changes in POAH neural activity during neurotropic agent-induced alterations in thermoregulation.
