It also emphasizes various molecules that have been linked to aggression by the latest gene-targeting and pharmacological techniques. Although the evidence continues to point to androgens and serotonin (5-HT) as major hormonal and neurotransmitter factors in aggressive behavior, recent work with GABA,...
Guillot PV, Carlier M, Maxson SC, Roubertoux PL: Intermale aggression tested in two procedures, using four inbred strains of mice and their reciprocal congenics: Y chromosomal implications. Behav Genet 1995, 25: 357–360. Article CAS PubMed Google Scholar Ratcliffe SG, Butler GE, Jones M:...
The heritability of human aggression has been estimated around 50% [6]. Its complex genetic architecture interacts with environmental factors [7,8,9]. Decades of animal studies have yielded strong neurochemical and physiological evidence that points to conserved common pathways across species such as ...

In the fox domestication study we referred to earlier, the activity levels of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and the blood cortisol levels decreased as the foxes were selectively bred for lower levels of fear and aggression16. MC2R SNP2 correlated with the two-way choice test and M...
This is the first known study to show a significant association between callous-unemotional traits in children and adolescents with extreme, persistent pervasive aggression and a polymorphism on the oxytocin receptor. Given the small sample size and the possibility of false positive effects, the need ...
The maternal aggression test (right) is used to measure female aggression. To defend her pups, a lactating female attacks a male or a female conspecific intruder with a very short latency and with a high intensity form of attack, predominantly targeted at the head and upper back. In both ...
Review Mean Genes and the Biology of Aggression: A Critical Review of Recent Animal and Human Research Recent genetic work has suggested that abnormalities in serotonin biochemistry are directly causally linked to aggressive behavior, and there appears to be... Evan,Balaban,Joseph,... - 《Journal...
indeed, most researchers in the field were appalled by the decision of an italian appeal court in 2009 to cut the sentence of a convicted murderer by one year on the grounds that he had a version of the MAOA gene, which has been linked to aggression and violence (Feresin, 2009). ...
