abstract：:The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that nitric oxide (NO) plays a role in 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG)-induced hypothermia. The body temperature of awake, unrestrained rats was measured before and after the administration of 2-DG, or N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; a non-selective NOS inhibi...
