EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES
Subjects
We used male LongEvans rats born and bred in our
colony (originally from Harlan Labs). Animals were
Amygdala dissection
In a separate cohort of animals (3 months of age; n =
8/group), not tested for anxiety, both amygdala were
dissected on ice, ash frozen and stored at 80 C. The
amygdala was located using the ventral hippocampus
and putamen as landmarks for the rostral and caudal
cuts, respectively. The brain was turned to obtain a
coronal view, where the rhinal ssure could be easily
seen and used as a landmark to make the dorsal cut.
The remaining cortex on the lateral side is lifted o the
amygdala while the optic track was used to make the
medial cut.
Microarray assessment
Tissue processing. The dissected amygdala tissue
was processed for total RNA (Qiagen RNeasy Micro
Kit). RNA was extracted using elution columns; residual
buers and enzymes were removed. mRNA was
amplied linearly, and hybridized to Aymetrix rat 2.0
chips, as specied by Aymetrix (Santa Clara, CA) and
NuGEN (San Carlos, CA) (Pico system).
Data processing. Raw data were preprocessed,
background-corrected, and normalized by GCRMA (Wu
and Irizarry, 2004). The number of genes was ltered to
approximately 12,000 by eliminating probe sets that did
not vary across conditions (variance ltering) or for
which there was no available annotation. The rst step
dened dierentially expressed probe sets. To
accomplish this, we used Rank Products (Breitling et al.,
2004), which simulates probabilities based on pairwise
comparison dierences. From these results, we
determined the percentage of dierentially regulated
genes that t into dierent biological and cellular GO
categories [Panther; (Mi et al., 2013)].

RESULTS
Behavior
We rst asked whether early-life trauma (i.e., unpredicted
shock) leads to heightened anxiety-like behavior in
adulthood. To do so, we measured the latency of when
animals entered the light compartment from the dark
area in a testing arena (Light/Dark box see
Experimental procedures) (n = 6/group). Those animals
that had received unpaired odor-shock treatment as
neonates displayed signicantly longer latencies to enter
the light area (Fig. 1A; control: 9.17 1.54 vs.
Unpaired: 16.79 2.67; t-test: t = 4.2, p = 0.002).
Furthermore,
Unpaired
animals
also
displayed
signicantly more numbers of defecations and urinations
during the testing period than control animals (Fig. 1B,
defecations: control: 0.17 0.17 vs. Unpaired:
2.67 0.71; t-test: t = 3.41, p = 0.007; Fig. 1C,
urinations: control: 0 0 vs. Unpaired: 1.5 0.22;
t-test: t = 6.71, p = 0.001). Longer latency to enter
the light area of the testing arena as well as increased
numbers of defecations and urinations suggest that
those animals exposed to unpredictable shock during
early development displayed increased anxiety-like
behavior in adulthood. These results replicate and
extend an earlier nding that long-term anxiety-like
behaviors are a result of unpredictable early-life shock.

Cellular Component Up
Fig. 2. Gene Ontology categories for biologic and cellular function for genes that were dierentially regulated (Rank Products, pfp <.05). For the
biologic function (top), there were a number of categories represented including cell communication, cellular processes, developmental processes,
and metabolic processes. The classication for biologic function was virtually identical for up- and down-regulated genes. For cellular processes
(bottom), however, the direction of regulation was important. Upregulated genes were largely located on the plasma membrane whereas
downregulated genes were largely extracellular.

Fig. 3. Ingenuity Pathway Analyses: Pathway analyses were from the commercially available Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software. Input was the
top 100 up- and top 100-downregulated probes ordered by fold change. Three networks were signicantly enriched. Up-regulated probes are in red
whereas down-regulated probes are in green. The network 2 shown here was dened as Neurological disease, organ injury, inammatory
disease. Canonical pathways identied by the pattern of gene expression are shown in the long ovals labeled CP in pink. These included a large
number of G-protein-coupled receptors. Associated disease states are also in long ovals labeled Fx in green. A number of disorders related to
anxiety, addiction and stress were signicantly over-represented (social anxiety; ptsd).

Fig. 4. Ingenuity Pathway Analyses: Details are as in Fig. 3. This is network 3 from the IPA analysis. There were three major canonical signaling
pathways associated with the phenotype including GABA, RhoA and Calcium. Similar to Fig. 3, the associated disease states are directly related to
anxiety disorders (e.g. generalized anxiety; anxiety disorders; panic disorder) or have an anxiety-related component.
