Abstract: | Tripeptide PGP in a dose of 1 mg/kg had a correcting effect on behavioral disorders in rats induced by stress exposure (forced
swimming). PGP prevented the increase in anxiety and decrease in orientation and exploratory activity. Our results suggest
that the effect of this peptide is realized via central nervous structures involved in organism’s response to stress factors.
