Intraventricular administration of either norepinephrine, tyramine or angiotensin II produced dose-dependent hypothermia, decreased metabolism and lowered cutaneous temperatures in Taiwan monkeys at ambient temperatures of 4 and 22°C. The hypothermia reflected the heat storage consequent to the net effects of decreased heat production and decreased heat loss. In heat (35°C), these agents produced dose-dependent hyperthermia in monkeys. The hyperthermia was brought about mainly by a decrease in dry heat loss.
