TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - Participation of 5-HT1A-receptors in regulating various types of aggressive behavior JO - Zhurnal vyssheĭ nervnoĭ deyatelnosti imeni I P Pavlova A1 - Vishnivetskaia, G. B.

SP - 704 EP - 708 VL - 51 IS - 6 N2 - We studied the effects of selective agonists of 5-HT1A receptors 8-OH-DPAT and flesinoxan on aggressive behavior of C57BL/6 male mice in the "resident-intruder" test and on defensive aggression of Norway rats toward man. 8-OH-DPAT (0.4 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly reduced the intermale aggression in mice and defensive aggression in rats (0.1-0.5 mg/kg, i.p.). In the dose of 0.5 mg/kg, flesinoxan inhibited the aggressive behavior in mice. These results suggest that activation of 5-HT1A receptors reduces different kinds of affective aggression. The results are discussed in terms of interaction between the well-known anxiolytic effects of 5-HT1A agonists and their antiaggressive properties.
