Molecular Pathways Resultant in Fever due to Inhibitory Effects of Binding PGE2 to Glucocorticoid Receptors
2020-01-15
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....
