- The human body's thermostat is the hypothalamic thermoregulatory center, which, more specifically, is located in the preoptic area of the hypothalamus. This center sets the body's set point and regulates temperature homeostasis. The hypothalamus contains temperature sensors, which receive information via nerve cells called thermoreceptors.

Apr 4, 2018 · The regulation of body temperature is one of the most critical functions of the nervous system. Here we review our current understanding of thermoregulation in mammals. We outline the molecules and cells that measure body temperature in the periphery, the neural pathways that communicate this information to the brain, and the central circuits ...

Jul 30, 2023 · Thermoregulation is the maintenance of physiologic core body temperature by balancing heat generation with heat loss. A healthy individual will have a core body temperature of 37 +/- 0.5°C (98.6 +/- 0.9°F), the temperature range needed for the body's metabolic processes to function correctly.[1]

During exercise and with exposure to hot climatic condi-tions, there is tendency for the human body to store heat and for body temperatures to rise. Changes in deep body temperatures reect the interplay between fl the passive and active thermoregulatory systems. The passive system comprises the body’s anatomical struc-tures, the size and compositio...
Our discussion begins with an overview of the bio-physical aspects of human temperature regulation under heat stress. The effects of heat production and the thermolytic requirements for heat balance on human thermoregulatory responses must be understood and accounted for when investigating the inuence of a par- fl ticular physiological factor or in...
As inspired air travels down the pulmonary tree, heat exchange occurs between the inspired air and the surface of the respiratory tract by convection and evaporation. During expiration, some of this heat is recovered by the respiratory tract, but most is dissi-pated to the environment. The same physical princi-ples that govern convective and evapor...

With the fundamental concepts related to energy exchange and human thermoregulatory control as back-ground, our focus now shifts to the various intrinsic mor-phological and physiological traits that modulate the response to heat stress in healthy humans. Although these traits could conceivably alter temperature regula-tion at any point of thermoeff...
The dimensions and composition of the body’s passive system are important modulators of the heat stress response. In this section, we review the effects of body mass, body surface area, the surface area-to-mass ratio, and body composition and discuss how morphological factors should be considered when assessing the inde-pendent effects of various p...
Aug 2, 2018 · Humans maintain a relatively stable core body temperature of ~37°C despite being exposed to a wide variety of environmental conditions. Maintaining core body temperature within a safe, narrow range (i.e., between 35 and 39°C) ensures that metabolic reactions within the human body occur at a near-optimal level when possible . When humans are ...
