Brown adipose tissue thermogenesis heats brain and body as part of the brain-coordinated ultradian basic rest-activity cycle.
PMID 19679172·Neuroscience·2009
7-preclinical
Selective blockade of 5-HT2A receptors attenuates the increased temperature response in brown adipose tissue to restraint stress in rats.
PMID 18311601·Stress·2008
7-preclinical
Fever response to intravenous prostaglandin E2 is mediated by the brain but does not require afferent vagal signaling.
PMID 18234746·Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol·2008
7-preclinical
When administered to rats in a cold environment, 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine reduces brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and increases tail blood flow: effects of pretreatment with 5-HT1A and dopamine D2 antagonists.
PMID 18534763·Neuroscience·2008
7-preclinical
Activation of dopamine D2 receptors in the CNS inhibits sympathetic cutaneous vasomotor alerting responses (SCVARs), contributing to clozapine's SCVAR-inhibiting action.

PMID 16570210·Neurochem Res·2006
7-preclinical
Clozapine reverses increased brown adipose tissue thermogenesis induced by 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine and by cold exposure in conscious rats.
PMID 16814930·Neuroscience·2006
4-observational
Activation of 5-HT1A receptors in rostral medullary raphé inhibits cutaneous vasoconstriction elicited by cold exposure in rabbits.
PMID 16455061·Brain Res·2006
4-observational
