LPS increases rectal temperature in rats. LPS (100μg/kg body weight) or vehicle was injected ip during the light phase in overnight fasted rats and rectal temperature measured in conscious lightly hand-restrained rats before and 2h, 5h, 7h and 24h post injection (A). Each line represents the mean ± sem of 5 rats/group. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 and *** p < 0.001 vs. vehicle. Correlations between plasma acyl (B) or desacyl ghrelin (C) and rectal temperature from 0 - 24h post LPS injection. Values for r and p are indicated in each graph.
