Thyroid hormone regulation of thermal acclimation in ectotherms: Physiological mechanisms and ecoevolutionary implications
Abstract
The pathways that regulate adaptive thermal plasticity in ectothermic vertebrates have received little attention relative to those in birds and mammals. However, there is increasing evidence that thyroid hormone represents a critical regulator of thermal plasticity in both ectothermic and endothermic vertebrates. In this review, I summarize the evidence for thyroid hormone-mediated thermal compensation responses in ectothermic vertebrates, with …
