Fluoxetine treatment ameliorates depression induced by perinatal arsenic exposure via a neurogenic mechanism

Abstract: Several epidemiological studies have reported an association between arsenic exposure and increased rates of psychiatric disorders, including depression, in exposed populations. We have previously demonstrated that developmental exposure to low amounts of arsenic induces depression in adulthood along with several morphological and molecular aberrations, particularly associated with the hippocampus and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis. The extent and potential reversibility of this toxin-induced da… Show more

“…To demonstrate region specificity of arsenic toxicity for the dentate gyrus, we assessed histone modifications in the frontal cortex of both males and females. Additionally, the frontal cortex has been implicated in the pathophysiology of depression, and we have previously shown our model of arsenic exposure induces depressive-like behaviors in adulthood (Martinez et al, 2008, Tyler et al, 2014). Thus, in the male frontal cortex, we observed increased levels of both H3K4me3 and associated MLL, similar to the pattern observed in the male dentate gyrus, though KDM5B protein expression was only slightly decreased.…”

“…C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson Labs were maintained on a reverse light/dark cycle (lights off at 0800) with ad libitum access to food and water in the Animal Resource Facility at UNM. Arsenic exposure was performed as previously described (Tyler et al, 2014), as depicted in Figure 1. Briefly, singly-housed female mice aged 55 days were acclimated to drinking 50 parts-per-billion arsenic water (sodium arsenate, Sigma Aldrich) for 10 days prior to mating.…”
