Reaction of pituitary-adrenal axis to a 10-day immobilisation stress and a humoral immune response to subsequent injection of sheep red blood cells were investigated in gray rats selected for enhancement of decrease of aggressive behavior towards humans. It was show that pituitary-adrenal axis reaction of aggressive animals to repeated stress did not change during the experiment, while a decrease of stress-induced corticosterone level was observed already on day 5 of stress. Repeated stress led to enhancement of humoral immune response in aggressive rats, whereas it did not bring about any change in tame animals. based on the obtained data, it could be supposed that breeding of gray rats for domesticated behavior led a faster adaptation to repeated stress and the absence of stimulating influence on humoral immune response in tame rats.
