Normal Thermoregulation: Hypothalamic Control, Heat Exchange, and Physiological Homeostasis

Normal Thermoregulation: Hypothalamic Control, Heat Exchange, and Physiological Homeostasis

1. Introduction Normal thermoregulation is a continuous, dynamic physiological process designed to maintain the human body’s core internal temperature within a strictly defined, narrow range, typically between 36.5 and 37.5 degrees Celsius. This biological homeostasis is absolutely essential for survival. Every cellular process, enzymatic reaction, and metabolic pathway in the human body is chemically optimized … Read more
