Title

Identifying individual differences of fluoxetine response in juvenile rhesus monkeys by metabolite profiling

Overall design

The aim of this study was to identify biomarkers of response to fluoxetine as well as biomarkers that correlate with impulsivity, a measure of reward delay behavior and potential side effect of the drug, in juvenile male rhesus monkeys. GC-MS was used to identify peripheral metabolite profiling of blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from animals treated daily with fluoxetine or vehicle for one year. Monkeys were divided into 2 groups (n = 16 in each group): (1) control group and (2) fluoxetine group. Animals were treated orally with fluoxetine or vehicle for one year. Dosing was initiated at 1 year of age at 1.6 mg/kg/d and adjusted to 2.4 mg/kg/d after 11 months. Fluoxetine response metabolite profiles and metabolite/reward delay behavior associations were evaluated using multivariate analysis.
