2004 article

Fluoxetine-treated male wrasses exhibit low AVT expression

Semsar, K., Perreault, H. A. N., & Godwin, J. (2004, October 28). Brain Research, Vol. 1029, pp. 141–147.

By: K. Semsar*, H. Perreault n & J. Godwin n 

author keywords: anxiety; depression; vasotocin; serotonin; SSRI; neurosteroidogenesis
MeSH headings : Aggression; Animals; Dominance-Subordination; Fishes / physiology; Fluoxetine / pharmacology; Gene Expression / drug effects; Male; Preoptic Area / drug effects; Preoptic Area / physiology; RNA, Messenger / analysis; Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors / pharmacology; Vasotocin / genetics
topics (OpenAlex): Neuroendocrine regulation and behavior; Stress Responses and Cortisol; Circadian rhythm and melatonin
TL;DR: The hypothesis that behavioral effects of SSRIs may be mediated in part through interactions with the AVT/AVP system is experimentally supported and SSRI effects on neuroendocrine function may be best modeled in animals with sensitive stress responses such as those found in nondomesticated animals.

2003 article

Fluoxetine treatment decreases territorial aggression in a coral reef fish

PERREAULT, H., SEMSAR, K., & GODWIN, J. (2003, September 1). Physiology & Behavior, Vol. 79, pp. 719–724.

By: H. Perreault n, K. Semsar n & J. Godwin n 

author keywords: aggression; serotonin; teleost; SSRI; fluoxetine
MeSH headings : Aggression / drug effects; Aggression / physiology; Animals; Fluoxetine / pharmacology; Male; Perciformes / physiology; Serotonin / metabolism; Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors / pharmacology; Territoriality
topics (OpenAlex): Animal Behavior and Reproduction; Primate Behavior and Ecology; Amphibian and Reptile Biology
TL;DR: Fluoxetine is used to experimentally enhance serotonergic neurotransmission in a territorial coral reef fish and supports the link between serotonin and aggressive behavior in fishes in both a controlled laboratory testing environment and the animal's natural habitat. (via Semantic Scholar)
