abstract="Isolation has been widely described to induce a strong aggressive behaviour in many animal species and especially in rodents. A deeper analysis of this altered behaviour induced by isolation, allows for the identification of several other changes involving numerous peripheral, behavioural and neurochemical functions. As a consequence of the manifold aspects involved in this experimental situation, the definition &quot;isolation syndrome&quot; seems to be much more adequate than the simplest definition of &quot;aggressiveness by isolation&quot;. On this framework, some similarities with psychoneurosis in men are also suggested.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
