Accumulating evidences suggest that serotonin (5-HT) contributes to the developmental programming of childhood- and adult-onset mental illnesses. This is thought to occur through the capacity of 5-HT to modulate developmental processes such as cell proliferation, migration and circuit wiring. For instance, genetic studies in mice show that disruption of 5-HT signaling during a restricted period of pre- and postnatal development results in long-term behavioral abnormalities such as increased anxiety in adulthood. The developmental programming of adult anxiety can be triggered either by a transient knockdown of a single 5-HT receptor [5-HT1A, ] or by a transient developmental exposure to specific serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The recent discovery of a role for 5-HT in fetal forebrain wiring in utero suggests a potential mechanism by which 5-HT signaling disruption can have long-term consequences on brain function. 5-HT signaling through two receptors (htr1b/1d; 5-HT1B/1D) switches the response of thalamic axons to netrin-1 from attraction to repulsion in vitro. Targeted disruption in vivo of 5-HT1B/1D receptors expression in the dorsal thalamus led to abnormal thalamocortical axons (TCAs) pathways in the internal capsule and cortex. Thus, the level 5-HT signaling through the number and/or type of 5-HT receptors activated is critical for normal brain development. The concentration of 5-HT available for receptors activation is likely another important parameter for normal brain development. We recently demonstrated that the fetal forebrain selectively accumulates placenta-derived 5-HT during the initial axon growth period. These data suggest that certain developing circuits in the fetal brain are sensitive to placental 5-HT during their initial ontogeny, which could be impacted by both genetic and environmental disturbances that are known to increase risk for mental illnesses. The role of 5-HT signaling in fetal brain wiring and the potential importance of placental metabolism in 5-HT-mediated fetal programing are discussed below.
