Abstract
Fever is a complex physiological response enhancing immune surveillance during infection and inflammation. Fever-range whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) treatment can experimentally mimic the febrile condition in mice. Here, we describe a protocol for the treatment of mice with WBH and normothermia. We describe the isolation of T cells from mouse spleen followed by the evaluation of T-cell adhesion and transmigration. This animal model can be applied to studying the dysfunction of the immune system induced by fever. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lin et al. (2019).
