  1. Epigenetic content of this paper Behavior Physiology

  2. 10 day defeat Social Avoidance 10 minutes Fight ! 10 days 24 hours

  3. (t2) (t1) without social target t2 = t1 WITH social target

  4. Sub-maximal defeat Social Avoidance 10 minutes Fight ! 3x Z Z Z Z 15 minutes

  5. control control Normal males Defeat Breed offspring Sub-maximal defeat P F 1

  6. P F 1 Normal males Breed “PRE” offspring Behavioral testing Defeat control Breed “POST” offspring Behavioral testing F 2 F 1

  7. Healthy fathers “PRE” offspring Defeat “POST” offspring P F 1 F 2 Anxiety Anxiety Depression Depression

  8. Corticosterone VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) Increases after exercise (a good thing) Needed by neurons/vessels to survive Decreased in depression • Increases during stress • Acute increase promotes learning • Chronic increase yields depression • Enjoy in moderation

  9. Healthy fathers “PRE” offspring Defeat “POST” offspring P F 1 F 2 • BAD endocrine profile • Only POST offspring • Only at basal levels • Only males

  10. In Vitro

  11. Conception The kids EPM Locomotion Suc Pref FST Sex Defeated Males In Vitro EPM Locomotion Suc Pref FST
