Disease relevance of Agonistic Behavior

  • Compared with saline, both doses of arginine vasopressin significantly decreased lordosis responses to mounting and hop-dart proceptive behavior and trended toward significantly increasing agonistic behaviors [1].
  • Long-term changes in exploratory, social and agonistic behavior have been reported in rodents following developmental exposure to zidovudine (AZT), an agent commonly administered to pregnant seropositive women and their neonates to prevent HIV-1 transmission [2].
 

Psychiatry related information on Agonistic Behavior

 

High impact information on Agonistic Behavior

  • In the minority of trials when EB-treated males approach a stimulus male, they occasionally receive a neck grip to which they display receptive postures as opposed to agonistic behaviors [6].
  • We hypothesize here that interactions among oxytocin, vasopressin and glucocorticoids could provide substrates for dynamic changes in social and agonistic behaviors, including those required in the development and expression of monogamy [7].
  • Current results corroborate previous findings with respect to 5-HT1A receptor involvement in murine agonistic behavior and anxiety [8].
  • Ethopharmacological studies on the effects of antihormones on rodent agonistic behavior with especial emphasis on progesterone [9].
  • Administration of E to ovariectomized animals does not appear to produce significant effects on agonistic behavior and territorial scent-marking responses albeit in a few cases E appears to reduce agonistic tendencies toward male conspecifics [10].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Agonistic Behavior

 

Biological context of Agonistic Behavior

  • After drug treatment, HET mice showed changes in complex behaviors, including male agonistic behavior, female postpartum aggression, and tactile discrimination performance [14].
 

Anatomical context of Agonistic Behavior

 

Gene context of Agonistic Behavior

  • In contrast, when the monkeys were challenged through direct eye contact with a human experimenter, the 25 micrograms IL-1 dose significantly increased agonistic behavior [16].
  • Our results suggest that changes in AVP V1a receptors do not account for the changes in agonistic behavior produced by acute social defeat but AVP V1a binding in the VMHL correlates with, and may modulate, the behavioral changes that occur following repeated experiences of victory [17].
  • They suggest that 20-HE orchestrates intrinsic, cellular, and nuclear events that produce the molt-cycle transformations in agonistic behavior and aggressive state of lobsters [18].
  • Modulation of agonistic behavior by the dual olfactory system in male mice [19].
  • Agonistic behavior, neuroendocrine and plasma metabolite changes, and muscle glycogen content were studied in 16 fed and 16 24 h-fasted domestic Large White pigs (100 +/- 5 kg) submitted to dyadic encounters (30 min) in a novel environment [5].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Agonistic Behavior

  • In this study, we used radioligand receptor autoradiography to examine whether changes in agonistic behavior following acute and repeated social defeat are accompanied by changes in AVP V1a receptor binding [17].
