Description

Anastasia Mutovina and seven colleagues study how a history of aggression changes the way mice handle inflammation, in a 2025 paper. Male mice with long aggressive experience, about a third of whom turned pathologically aggressive, received repeated doses of LPS, a bacterial compound that triggers inflammation. The team tracked blood counts, activity, brain immune cells, and gene expression.

The aggressive mice cleared inflammation from their blood within five days, while control mice stayed inflamed. Their brain microglia also settled back to a resting state faster, and genes tied to resolving inflammation rose. The aggression itself did not change. The authors link the pattern partly to dopamine signaling in two brain regions.
