TLDR
Endogenous serum pyrogen from rabbits produced fever in dogs and vice versa, suggesting that pyrogenicity of EP in animals of different species is probably a non-specific phenomenon.Abstract:
SummaryEndogenous serum pyrogen from rabbits produced fever in dogs and vice versa. Pyrogenicity of EP in the homologous species was dose related, but this was not the case in the heterologous spec...read more

The reaction of different animal species to bacterial pyrogens.
TL;DR: It is concluded that for these effects and this pyrogen the following list of diminishing sensitivity can be given: rabbit, horse, goat, dog, cow, sheep, cat, swine and chicken.

Species specificity of leukocytic pyrogens
TL;DR: Quantitative differences in response reveal the cat to be the most sensitive of of these species to homologous leukocytic pyrogen, followed by the rabbit, dog, and goat, suggesting the operation of species specificity.

CHAPTER 14 – Fever
Elisha Atkins,E. S. Snell +1 more
TL;DR: A number of diseases induce fever either by raising the heat production of the body (hyperthyroidism) or by reducing heat loss (pheochromocytoma), but in the great majority of instances fever is caused by an alteration in the central nervous regulation of body temperature as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrical activity in sympathetic nerves of immunologically sympathectomized rats.
TL;DR: Electrical activity was recorded from the lumbar sympathetic chains of control rats and rats treated with an antiserum developed to the sympathetic nerve growth factor derived from mouse salivary glands, providing further evidence for the effectiveness with which the anti-nerve growth factor damages the sympathetic nervous system.

Aufbau und Wirkungsweise bakterieller Endotoxine
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a Ubersicht for Endotoxine, ein toxisches Prinzip vieler pathogener and nichtpathogener Keime, berichtet werden soll, so kann die Bedeutung der Endotoxin nur im Lichte der neueren Forschung aufgezeichnet werd.
