We theoretically investigate the antiferromagnetic insulator phase in a threedimensional correlated system with spin-orbit coupling, the Fu-Kane-Mele-Hubbard model at half-filling. We focus on the topological magnetoelectric effect which is described by the theta term. A low-energy effective Hamiltonian is derived in the antiferromagnetic insulator phase. Then with the use of a field-theoretical method, the theta term is derived as a consequence of the chiral anomaly.
