TLDR
The results of the present study suggest that the hypothermic effect elicited by these heavy metals is related to both the level of metal absorbed by the brain and its rate of uptake.About:

TL;DR: The data clearly show that cadmium injections into the third ventricle disturb central regulation of renal function leading to an increased renal loss of sodium and potassium and it is evident that the natriuretic action of the metal depends on an increase in brain angiotensin II release.

Effect of environmental temperature on tissue lead accumulation in mice repeatedly treated with lead acetate
Francisco Martinez-Garcia,Francisco Martínez-Ruiz,Immaculada Vicente,Rafael Peñafiel,Asunción Cremades +4 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that environmental temperature influences the amount of lead accumulated in some rodent tissues, and that the duration of the treatment modifies the effect produced by temperature, suggesting that the changes elicited during the period of acclimation to the hot environment could be responsible for these findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of central administration of lead, cadmium and other divalent cations on body temperature in mice
Francisco Martínez,Vicente Vicente-Ortega,Arturo J. Brugger,Rafael Peñafiel,Asunción Cremades +4 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the central nervous system is implicated in the hypothermia induced by these divalent cations and suggest that the alteration of membrane ionic permeability by these substances at hypothalamic sites may be related to the control of body temperature.

The long-term effects of exposure to low doses of lead in childhood. An 11-year follow-up report.
TL;DR: Exposure to lead in childhood is associated with deficits in central nervous system functioning that persist into young adulthood, and lead levels were inversely related to self-reports of minor delinquent activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of lead neurotoxicity.
TL;DR: Brain homeostatic mechanisms are disrupted by exposure to higher levels of lead, and the final pathway appears to be a breakdown in the blood-brain barrier.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proportional Release of Norepinephrine and Dopamine-β-Hydroxylase from Sympathetic Nerves
TL;DR: Dopamine-β-hydroxylase(DBH), the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine, is localized in the vesicles containing catecholamine in sympathetic nerves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in body temperature after administration of amino acids, peptides, dopamine, neuroleptics and related agents
TL;DR: The study of drug-induced changes in body temperature has expanded greatly within the past decade and the cited literature is a readily available source of information on interactions between certain drugs and the thermoregulatory system.

TL;DR: This survey, the second in a series, presents extensive tabulations of literature on thermoregulatory effects of cholinergic agonists and antagonists, histamine and H1- and H2-receptor antagonists, narcotic analgesics and antagonists in both non-tolerant and tolerant subjects and of prostaglandins and related agents.
