  • Title: Hypothalamic substances in the control of body temperature: general characteristics.
    Author: Blatteis CM.
    Journal: Fed Proc; 1981 Nov; 40(13):2735-40. PubMed ID: 6117482.
    Abstract:
    Although it has been demonstrated that their central, exogenous application induces thermal responses, it is not yet established whether various substances found in the hypothalami of many species function as neurotransmitters in central thermoregulatory pathways. Available data concerning their presence, synthesis, release, possible binding sites, and inactivation are reviewed in the light established criteria for determining a neurotransmitter role for such substances.
