Localization of dopamine receptor subtypes in the rat spiral ganglion.

abstract：:Local warming or cooling of the preoptic and anterior hypothalamus (PO/AH) areas evokes various thermoregulatory responses in mammals. We have hypothesized that warm- and cold-sensitive neurons recorded in the PO/AH are multiple thermostats that regulate the core temperature against heat and cold, respectively. Howeve...
