Project description:The strong pattern of comorbidity amongst psychiatric disorders is believed to be generated by a spectrum of latent liability, arising from a complex interplay of genetic risk and environmental factors, such as stress and childhood adversity. At one end of this spectrum are internalizing disorders, which are associated with neuroticism, anxiety, and depression. At the other end of the spectrum are externalizing disorders, which are associated with risk-taking and novelty-seeking, as seen in mania, substance abuse, and impulse-control disorders. We model the genetic contributions underlying both extremes of this spectrum by selectively breeding rats that react differently to a novel environment. “Bred high responder” (bHR) rats are highly exploratory with a disinhibited, novelty-seeking temperament, including hyperactivity, aggression, and drug-seeking. “Bred low responder” (bLR) rats are highly-inhibited, exhibiting reduced locomotor activity and anxious and depressive-like behavior. These behavioral propensities are robust and stable, beginning early in development similar to temperament in humans. This RNA-sequencing study examined gene expression in the hippocampus, a region critical for emotional regulation, in generation F37 adult male bHR rats and bLR rats (n=6/group), as well as in rats that showed an intermediate locomotor response to a novel field (“bred Intermediate Responder” or bIR rats, n=6), which were obtained by cross-breeding F37 bHR and bLR rats. Prior to sacrifice, the animals experienced behavioral testing. Locomotor response to a novel environment was assessed between age P50–75 as part of our selective breeding paradigm. We also measured anxiety-like behavior in adulthood (bHR/bLR: P160-P167; bIR: P65-75) using the percent time spent in the open arms of an Elevated Plus Maze (EPM; 5 min test). These behavioral testing results are provided here along with the gene expression data.

Project description:Individual differences in human temperament can increase the risk of psychiatric disorders like depression and anxiety. Our laboratory utilized a rat model of temperamental differences to assess neurodevelopmental factors underlying emotional behavior differences. Rats selectively bred for low novelty exploration (Low Responders, LR) display high levels of anxiety- and depression-like behavior compared to High Novelty Responder (HR) rats. Using transcriptome profiling, the present study uncovered vast gene expression differences in the early postnatal HR versus LR limbic brain, including changes in genes involved in cellular metabolism. These data led us to hypothesize that rats prone to high (versus low) anxiety/depression-like behavior exhibit distinct patterns of brain metabolism during the first weeks of life, which may reflect disparate patterns of synaptogenesis and brain circuit development. All samples were generated from Sprague-Dawley male rats selectively bred for high novelty response (HRs) or low novelty response (LRs).

These behavioral propensities are robust and stable, beginning early in development similar to temperament in humans. This dataset was part of a larger RNA-Sequencing study examining gene expression in the bHR/bLR hippocampus, a region critical for emotional regulation. The original study compared repeated injections of either antidepressant medication (fluoxetine or desipramine) or vehicle (VEH=1:1 saline and water) solution in bHR and bLR rats (14 days of intraperitoneal injections - P78-P92, 1 per day) under either standard laboratory housing conditions or chronic variable stress. This upload includes only the data from the control subjects: generation F43 adult male bHR VEH rats and bLR VEH rats housed in standard conditions (n=5/group). Prior to sacrifice, at age P92, the rats underwent social interaction testing after 15 minutes of exposure to an anxiogenic environment (the elevated plus maze). The results from the social interaction testing are provided here along with the gene expression data.
