(left panel) transient expression of the serotonin transporter alongside increased REM sleep buffers cortical serotonin levels in the developing brain with (central panel) serotonin signalling only observed in response to aversive stimuli such as an air puff. (Right panel) dosing with SSRIs in early life can have long-term detrimental consequences for sensory-evoked neural activity with hyperactivity observed in animal exposed to the anti-depressant.
