Abstract— l‐DOPA or d‐amphetamine administration disaggregates brain polyribosomes in animals maintained in an environment warm enough (26°C) so that the drugs concurrently elevate their body temperatures to above 39°C. The production of equivalent hyperthermia (by keeping control rats at ambient temperatures of 40–44° C) does not cause similar disaggregation of brain polysomes. Hence, the role of hyperthermia in the drug‐induced disaggregation is permissive.
