Component
Calcium influx into hypothalamic cells
Calcium influx into hypothalamic cells. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
Hypothalamic TRPV1 expression, hypothalamic intracellular calcium concentration and arginine vasopressin concentration in the ventral septum were significantly higher in the dihydrocapsaicin group than in the control, resuscitation and body surface cooling groups, and the authors concluded that dihydrocapsaicin activates TRPV1 on hypothalamic cells to cause a large calcium influx which causes the release of vasopressin to induce hypothermia.
