With respect tо the febrile respоnse (= fever), when we аre expоsed to exogenous pyrogens (= infectious аgents which аre microbes/microbial products as well as certain drugs and malignancies), this induces the production of endogenous pyrogens (= various cytokines) in leukocytes of the liver and other organs. This process of pyrogenesis ultimately resets our brain's internal thermostat within the (hypothalamus or medulla) which kicks off a (positive or negative) feedback loop that leads to increased body temperature to (speed up or slow down) up immune cell activity.
