This study examines the effects of sertraline and voluntary exercise during pregnancy on maternal behavior and litter characteristics in rats, finding exercise reduces anxiety-like behaviors and increases DNA methylation markers, while sertraline has limited effects.

This paper reviews preclinical and clinical studies on habenula dysfunction in depression, finding hyperactivity in preclinical models and structural/molecular abnormalities in clinical studies, with limited sex-specific analysis.
