Pregnancy alters body-core temperature response to a simulated open field in rats.
Exposure of a rat to a novel environment (e.g., a simulated open field) induces a transient increase in body-core temperature, which is often called stress-induced hyperthermia. Although pregnancy is known to influence thermoregulatory control, its effect on stress-induced hyperthermia is unknown. Therefore, 24 Sprague-Dawley rats (8 nonpregnant and 16 pregnant) were studied to test the hypothe...
متن کاملRole of AVP in mediating the altered core temperature response to a simulated open field in pregnant rats.
Near the term of pregnancy, rats have an attenuated core temperature response on exposure to a novel environment (e.g., a simulated open field) compared with that observed early in pregnancy or in nonpregnant rats. The present experiments were carried out on 26 nonpregnant and 26 pregnant rats to test the hypothesis that arginine vasopressin, functioning as an endogenous antipyretic substance i...
متن کاملInfluence of nicotine on the core temperature response to a novel environment in pregnant rats.
Exposure of a male or nonpregnant female rat to a novel environment, such as a simulated open field, induces a transient increase in core temperature, which is often called stress-induced hyperthermia. Pregnancy alters this response such that the core temperature index increases significantly during exposure to a simulated open field on day 10 but not on days 15 and 20 of gestation in rats. The...
متن کاملAminophylline alters the core temperature response to acute hypoxemia in newborn and older guinea pigs.
In newborns and adults of a number of species, exposure to acute hypoxemia produces a "regulated" decrease in core temperature, the mechanism of which is unknown. The present experiments were carried out on chronically instrumented newborn (5-10 days of age; n = 27) and older (25-30 days of age; n = 23) guinea pigs to test the hypothesis that adenosine mediates this regulated decrease in core t...
متن کاملMolecules affecting hypothalamic control of core body temperature in response to calorie intake
Core body temperature (CBT) and calorie intake are main components of energy homeostasis and two important regulators of health, longevity, and aging. In homeotherms, CBT can be influenced by calorie intake as food deprivation or calorie restriction (CR) lowers CBT whereas feeding has hyperthermic effects. The finding that in mice CBT prolonged lifespan independently of CR, suggested that the m...
