In mood disorder, early stressors including parental separation are vulnerability factors, and hippocampal involvement is prominent. In common marmoset monkeys, daily parental deprivation during infancy produces a pro-depressive state of increased basal activity and reactivity in stress systems and mild anhedonia that persists at least to adolescence. Here we examined the expression of eight genes, each implicated in neural plasticity and in the pathophysiology of mood disorder, in the hippocampus of these same adolescent marmosets, relative to their normally-reared sibling controls. We also measured hippocampal volume. Early deprivation led to decreases in hippocampal GAP-43 mRNA, 5-HT1A receptor mRNA and 5-HT1AR binding ([3H]WAY100,635), and to increased VGAT mRNA. BDNF, synaptophysin, VGluT1, MAP2, and spinophilin transcripts were unchanged. There were some correlations with in vivo biochemical and behavioural indices, including VGluT1 mRNA with reward-seeking behaviour, and 5-HT1AR mRNA with CSF cortisol. Early deprivation did not affect hippocampal volume. We conclude that early deprivation in a non-human primate, in the absence of subsequent stressors, has a long-term effect on the hippocampal expression of genes implicated in synaptic function and plasticity. The reductions in GAP-43 and 5-HT1AR expression are comparable with findings in mood disorder, supporting the possibility that the latter reflect an early developmental contribution to disease vulnerability. Equally, the negative results suggest that other features of mood disorder, such as decreased hippocampal volume and BDNF expression, are related to different aspects of the pathophysiological process.
