Major depressive disorder is a leading debilitating disease known to occur at a two-fold higher rate in women than in men. The neurotrophic hypothesis of depression suggests that loss of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may increase susceptibility for depression-like behavior, although direct evidence is lacking. Using the chronic unpredictable stress paradigm (CUS), we investigated whether male and female mice with inducible BDNF deletion in the forebrain were more susceptible to depression-related behavior. We demonstrate that in certain behavioral measures the loss of BDNF lowers the threshold for females studied at random throughout estrus to display anxiogenic and anhedonic behaviors after chronic stress compared to wild type females. However, the loss of BDNF in forebrain does not increase the susceptibility to depression-like behavior in males. These gender differences suggest a role for BDNF in mediating some aspects of depression-related behavior in females.
