Early life undernutrition and aggression in two mouse strains

C T Randt et al. Dev Psychobiol. 1975 May.

Abstract

Early undernutrition was shown to be correlated with increased aggression in adult mice after isolation. This was significant in numbers of fights and shorter latency to fight in the DBA/2J strain. Lower 5HIAA in the brain after pretreatment with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor was found in the undernourished group.
