Evidence for the presence of -adrenoceptors in the central thermoregulatory mechanism of rabbits.

B N Dhawan, P R Dua.   

Abstract

1. The effects of intracerebroventricular administration of some alpha- and beta-adrenoceptor stimulants and antagonists on the body temperature of rabbits were investigated.2. Noradrenaline produced a dose dependent rise in body temperature. Other catecholamines were less active.3. The noradrenaline response was blocked by alpha-adrenoceptor blocking agents while beta-adrenoceptor antagonists had no effect.4. alpha-Methyl-noradrenaline and metaraminol had some hyperthermic effect, but significantly reduced the response of noradrenaline.5. The possible presence of alpha-adrenoceptors in the central thermoregulatory mechanisms is suggested.
