Free and conjugated plasma phenylacetic acid concentrations were significantly higher in dominant male vervet monkeys than in non-dominant males living in stable social groups. These findings may be connected with an earlier observation that plasma from aggressive human psychopaths contains higher concentrations of phenylacetic acid than non-aggressive controls; whether they reflect an increased production of phenylethylamine is still unknown.
在稳定社会群体中，处于主导地位的雄性绿猴的游离和结合型血浆苯乙酸浓度显著高于非主导地位的雄性绿猴。这些发现可能与早期的一项观察结果有关，即有攻击性的人类精神病患者的血浆中苯乙酸浓度高于无攻击性的对照组；它们是否反映了苯乙胺产量的增加仍不清楚。
