What compound promotes a fever?
Prostaglandins, specifically PGE2, play a key role in promoting fever by acting on the hypothalamus to raise the body's temperature set point.
Does the hypothalmus regulate body temperature?
The hypothalamus does play a role in regulating body temperature
How fever can caused increased intracranial pressure?

What are The circulating substances that affect the hypothalamus and initiate fever?

What part of the brain maybe responsible for the intermittent fever?
The hypothalamus in the brain is responsible for regulating body temperature. When there is an infection or inflammation causing intermittent fever, the hypothalamus may be sending signals to increase the body's temperature as a response to fight off the infection.
Where is one of the pleasure centers found in the brain?
Hypothalamus
Which cytokine released by macrophages acts on the hypothalamus to raise the body temperature during fever?
The cytokine released by macrophages that acts on the hypothalamus to raise body temperature during fever is interleukin-1 (IL-1). IL-1 stimulates the hypothalamus to produce prostaglandins, which then trigger an increase in body temperature. This response is part of the body's immune reaction to infection or inflammation.
What role did quarantine play in yellow fever prevention?

Does the helper T cell secrete fever-producing chemicals?
Helper T cells do not directly secrete fever-producing chemicals. Instead, they play a crucial role in coordinating the immune response by releasing cytokines, which can stimulate other immune cells and influence the inflammatory response. Some of these cytokines, like interleukin-1 (IL-1), can act on the hypothalamus to induce fever as part of the body's defense mechanism against infection. Thus, while helper T cells contribute to fever indirectly through cytokine release, they do not produce fever-inducing substances themselves.
The thermoregulatory control center or thermostat that regulates the body's response to changes in temperature such as during a fever is located in the?
hypothalamus
Can brain tumors cause low grade fever?
With the hypothalamus governing as our body thermometer, yes it can cause fever if it's tumorous or of there's another growth pressing against it.
