Thermoregulation:
Homeostatic Balancing of Body Temperature
Peripheral and body core receptors senses
change
Hypothalamic thermoregulatory center
integrates & initiates:
Shivering, non-shivering thermogenesis,
vasoconstriction
Thermoregulation:
Homeostatic Balancing of Body Temperature
Thermoregulation: Pathologies
Hyperthermia: body temperature too high
Fever: pyrogens fight pathogens
Heat exhaustion (1020F)
Heat stroke (1060F) death
Malignant hyperthermia defective Ca++
release
Hypothermia: body temperature too low
Metabolism slows loss of consciousness,
death
Surgical applications: heart surgery

Malignant Hyperthermia
To date, only two genes in which mutation causes MHS have been
identified:
Summary
Eating provides carbohydrates, proteins, & fats
for metabolism
Reversible reactions allow interconversion of
nutrients
Energy is used for body heat and work: transport,
synthesis, storage
Metabolic rate changes with age, sex, body fat,
activity & diet
Insulin regulates anabolic cell activities & glucose
uptake in cells
