Early-life blockade of the 5-HT transporter alters emotional behavior in adult mice. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Reduced expression of serotonin transporter (5-HTT) is linked to mood and anxiety issues in both humans and rodents, but the exact cause is unclear.
  • Inhibiting 5-HTT using fluoxetine during early development led to emotional problems in adult mice, similar to those in mice lacking 5-HTT.
  • These results highlight the importance of serotonin in brain development related to emotional regulation and suggest a reason why certain genetic variations in 5-HTT may heighten the risk for mental health disorders.

Article Abstract

Reduced serotonin transporter (5-HTT) expression is associated with abnormal affective and anxiety-like symptoms in humans and rodents, but the mechanism of this effect is unknown. Transient inhibition of 5-HTT during early development with fluoxetine, a commonly used serotonin selective reuptake inhibitor, produced abnormal emotional behaviors in adult mice. This effect mimicked the behavioral phenotype of mice genetically deficient in 5-HTT expression. These findings indicate a critical role of serotonin in the maturation of brain systems that modulate emotional function in the adult and suggest a developmental mechanism to explain how low-expressing 5-HTT promoter alleles increase vulnerability to psychiatric disorders.
