Primate preoptic neurons drive hypothermia and cold defense

Primate preoptic neurons drive hypothermia and cold defense

Maintaining body temperature within a narrow range is vital for warm-blooded animals. In rodents, the preoptic area (POA) of the hypothalamus detects and regulates core body temperature. However, knowledge about the thermal regulation center in primates remains limited. Here, we show that activating...
