Dynamics and Internal Control of Body Temperature in Response to Infectious Agents and Other Causal Factors

2019-03-04

Abstract excerpt

Thermoregulation is crucial to homeostasis, but the mechanisms of its dysfunction are still largely mysterious, including fever, which is generally the most disconcerting sign of a serious infection or disease. Theories on body temperature dynamics that aim to explain a fever, such as changes in an internal setpoint, have been proposed, but none can identify the fundamental molecular pathways that produce a fever....
