  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

There has been a long discussion as to how the immune system communicates with the CNS. This question arose in the late 1970s when some cytokines were proven to be the endogenous pyrogens, which are produced by white blood cells, and evoke fever by acting on the brain. Although several hypotheses were proposed, there was no solid evidence for each of them. We challenged this question by focusing on another pyrogenic molecule, pros-taglandin E2 (PGE2) , which is produced in the brain in response to cytokines, and acts as the final mediator of fe-ver.
