To characterize the role of the midbrain temperature-sensitive structure in thermoregulation, the relative importance of thermosensitivity in the hypothalamus and the midbrain was studied in terms of heat production and heat loss in the rabbit. It was found that altering the local temperature in the midbrain had no influence at all on heat loss from the ear surface and also on heat production, while cooling and warming of the preoptic/anterior hypothalamic area induced appropriate thermoregulatory responses.
为了描述中脑温度敏感结构在体温调节中的作用，我们根据家兔的产热和散热情况，研究了下丘脑和中脑热敏感性的相对重要性。结果发现，改变中脑局部温度对耳部表面散热以及产热均无任何影响，而视前区/下丘脑前部区域的冷却和加热则会引发适当的体温调节反应。
