This study examined effects of acute doses of phencyclidine (PCP; 0.025, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 mg/kg intraperitoneally) on intra-specific aggressive behavior and muricide in normal rats and rats deprived of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Dose-related changes in intra-specific aggression and muricide occurred in REM sleep-deprived rats only. Dose-response curves are inverted-U shaped with the .05 mg/kg dose producing increases in aggression. Intra-specific aggression and muricide may serve as models of PCP-induced aggression in humans.

Glutamate-rich WD40 repeat containing 1 (GRWD1) is a novel oncogene/oncoprotein that downregulates the p53 tumor suppressor protein through several mechanisms. One important mechanism involves binding of GRWD1 to RPL11, which competitively inhibits the RPL11-MDM2 interaction and releases RPL11-mediated suppression of MDM2 ubiquitin ligase activity toward p53. Here, we mined the TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) database to gain in-depth insight into the clinical relevance of GRWD1.

According to the Risk-Need-Responsivity model, criminogenic needs are important in predicting violent behavior. Eight criminogenic needs are considered strong predictors: history of antisocial behavior, antisocial personality traits, criminal attitudes, criminal associates, substance abuse, family problems, poor work performance, and lack of involvement in prosocial leisure/recreation activities. The purpose of the current study was to examine whether seven criminogenic needs predict institutional misconduct in the first year of admission of Dutch patients who were admitted to a forensic hospital.

It is unclear how habitat features alter animal responses to social instability. Only by uncovering such interactions can we fully understand the evolutionary drivers and fitness consequences of sociality. We capitalize on a management-induced manipulation of social stability in an island population of free-ranging feral horses (), living across three distinct habitat types.

Objective: Assess the association between having witnessed physical violence between parents and intimate partner violence (IPV) against men in Bolivian adults according to the Encuesta de Demografia y Salud (EDSA) 2016.
Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the EDSA 2016 in Bolivia. The variable of interest in this study was IPV in men experienced during the last 12 months (any type of violence, physical and/or sexual, and psychological).

Purpose: The high mortality rate of breast cancer motivates researchers to search for effective treatments. Due to their ability to simulate human conditions, xenograft models such as CDX (Cell line-Derived Xenografts) and PDX (Patient-Derived Xenografts) have gained popularity in pre-clinical research. The choice of xenograft technique is influenced by the type of tumor employed, particularly in more aggressive tumor models like TNBC with metastases.
