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 …

Maintenance of a homeostatic body core temperature is a critical brain function
accomplished by a central neural network. This orchestrates a complex behavioral and …

Acute psychological stress has long been known to decrease host fitness to inflammation in
a wide variety of diseases, but how this occurs is incompletely understood. Using mouse …

Simple Summary The study of the hypothalamic neuromodulation of thermoregulation offers
broad areas of opportunity with practical applications that are currently being strengthened …

The homeostatic control of body temperature is essential for survival in mammals and is
known to be regulated in part by temperature-sensitive neurons in the hypothalamus …

Various environmental stressors, such as extreme temperatures (hot and cold), pathogens,
predators and insufficient food, can threaten life. Remarkable progress has recently been …

Although human core body temperature is known to decrease with age, the age
dependency of facial temperature and its potential to indicate aging rate or aging-related …

Thermoregulation is one of the most vital functions of the brain, but how temperature
information is converted into homeostatic responses remains unknown. Here, we use an …

The mechanism by which psychological stress elicits various physiological responses is
unknown. We discovered a central master neural pathway in rats that drives autonomic and …
