title: Opposing temperature responses to intrahypothalamic injections of 5-hydroxytryptamine in the pigeon exposed to cold.
abstract: 5-Hydroxytryptamine injected into posterior and anterior parts of the pigeon hypothalamus evoked a short lasting hyperthermia or hypothermia, respectively. Variable responses obtained within the same brain region suggest the existence of different 5-HT systems, even in rather limited hypothalamic areas.
