SVEE resulted in anxiety- and depression-like behavior, accompanied with increased oxidative stress, diminished antioxidant response and mitochondrial impairment reflected from electron transport chain (ETC) disruption, reduced oxygen consumption, low adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) synthesis and an alteration in the mitochondrial biochemical dynamics assessed via protein expression profiles of mitochondrial fission marker, dynamin-related protein-1 and fusion markers, mitofusin-1/2 in the HIP, AMY and the PFC. Here, DNM1L is linked to depressive disorder.
