Applications of cold and warm activated cellular immunity and orientation and exploratory behavior in mice. Application of cold increased the number of turns to the left in the open field, muscle force, and activity of the food instinct, and caused an increase in the total count of peripheral blood leukocytes. Warm applications reduced the food instinct activity and stimulated the humoral immunity.
