Abstract

There are heat-sensitive units in the anterior hypothalamus which respond with an increase of discharge frequency to a rise in hypothalamic temperature of less than 1°C. The increase of unit discharge occurred in advance of the onset of polypnea, and the unit has little phasic response or after discharge, and shows little adaptation.
