Fever is an abnormal elevation of body temperature. Following statements are regarding to the cellular mechanism of fever.

A. Pyrogens produce fever by increasing the hypothalamic set-point temperature.

B. the mechanism of pyrogen action is increased production of interleukin-1 (IL-1) in phagocytic cells.

C. IL-1 then acts on the anterior hypothalamus to increase local production of prostaglandins, which increase the set-point temperature.

D. IL-1 then acts on the posterior hypothalamus to increase local production of prostaglandins, which increase the set-point temperature.

E. IL-1 then acts on the posterior hypothalamus to increase local production of prostaglandins, which decrease the set-point temperature.
