| Behavior | POA stimulation (opto/chemogenetic) | POA warming | POA cooling | POA lesion |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Temperature preference | Lower (cold-seeking) (Tan et al., 2016) | Lower (cold-seeking) (Adair, 1977) | Higher (warm-seeking) (Adair, 1977) | No effect on LPS-induced cold-seeking (Almeida et al., 2006) |
| Operant responses for heat reward | ND | Decrease in cold (Carlisle, 1966; Laudenslager, 1976) | Increase at baseline (Satinoff, 1964) and in cold (Laudenslager, 1976) | Increase in cold (Carlisle, 1969; Schulze et al., 1981) |
| Operant responses for cool reward | ND | Increase at baseline (Cabanac and Dib, 1983) | No effect at baseline (Cabanac and Dib, 1983) | Increase in heat (Lipton, 1968) |
| Postural extension | Increased at baseline (Yu et al., 2016) | Increased at baseline (Roberts and Mooney, 1974) | ND | Reduced in heat (Roberts and Martin, 1977; Whyte et al., 2006) |
