TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Effects of phenibut and citrocard on non-competitive and competitive behavior during provoked aggression in animals JO - Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine A1 - Bagmetova, V. V. A1 - Krivitskaya, A. N. A1 - Tyurenkov, I. N. SP - 48 EP - 52 VL - 159 IS - 1 N2 - Anti-aggressive effects of phenibut (25 mg/kg) and its structural analogue citrocard (50 mg/kg) were revealed in rats under condition of provoked intraspecific aggression. These substances significantly decreased manifestations of aggression in animals: they increased the latency of attacks and reduced their number. Anti-aggressive effects of citrocard were more pronounced than effects of phenibut under conditions of non-competitive aggression induced by fear of inescapable painful exposure or under conditions of competitive aggression reflecting the ability of animals to reveal adaptive social communicative skills in aversive situation.
