Paradigms and Concepts in Thermal Regulation of Homeotherms

E Simon

This article challenges the belief in a central role for the hypothalamus in temperature regulation. This concept arose from classical experiments that pointed to the hypothalamus as a central regulator where deep body temperature is monitored, integrating incoming signals and controlling effectors such as shivering, sweating, and panting. More recent experimental evidence requires a much broader view of the integrated neural control system for temperature regulation in homeotherms.
