Abstract

The relationship between hypothalamic temperature and deep interscapular temperature measured just below the brown fat lobes has been studied during desynchronized sleep at two ambient temperatures (24 degrees C and 4 degrees C) before and after adaptation (9 days) to cold (4 degrees C). The results show that the increase in hypothalamic temperature during this stage of sleep occurs independently of a transfer of heat from interscapular brown fat.
