Thermoneutrality and severe malaria: investigating the effect of warmer environmental temperatures on the inflammatory response and disease progression
IntroductionMost studies using murine disease models are conducted at housing temperatures (20 – 22°C) that are sub-optimal (ST) for mice, eliciting changes in metabolism and response to disease. Experiments performed at a thermoneutral temperature (TT; 28 – 31°C) have revealed an altered immune res...
