From the 5âČ-Methylthioadenosine Wikipedia page:
Hecht found in 1937 that the body temperature of rabbits, cats and guinea pigs were lowered by 1 to 2 degrees after he gave them adenylthiomethylpentose at a dose of 0.2 g/kg. KĂŒhn et al. replicated this in guinea pigs in 1941.
- R. Kuhn u. K. Henkel (1941). “Ăber die Senkung der Körpertemperatur durch Adenylthiomethylpentose”. Biological Chemistry. 269 (1): 41â46. doi:10.1515/bchm2.1941.269.1.41.
That’s a little cryptic even for Wikipedia. The source article…or part of it.
