Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a pervasive and devastating mental disease. Broad spectrum histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are considered to have potential for the treatment of depressive phenotype in mice. However, due to its non-specific inhibition, it has extensive side effects and can not be used in clinical treatment of MDD. Therefore, finding specific HDAC subtypes that play a major role in the etiology of MDD is the key to develop corresponding specific inhibitors as antidepressants in the future. Copy number variation in HDAC9 gene is thought to be associated with the etiology of some psychiatric disorders. Herein, we found that HDAC9 was highly expressed in the hippocampus of chronic restraint stress (CRS) mouse model of depression. Upregulation of HDAC9 expression in hippocampal neurons of mice induced depression-like phenotypes, including anhedonia, helplessness, decreased dendritic spine density, and neuronal hypoexcitability. Moreover, knockdown or knockout of HDAC9 in hippocampal neurons alleviated depression-like phenotypes caused by chronic restraint stress (CRS) in WT mice. Importantly, using immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry (IP-MS), we further found that Annexin A2 (ANXA2) was coupled to and deacetylated by HDAC9. This coupling resulted in the inhibition of ubiquitinated ANXA2 degradation and then mediates depression-like behavior. Overall, we discovered a previously unrecognized role for HDAC9 in hippocampal neurons in the pathogenesis of depression, indicating that inhibition of HDAC9 might be a promising clinical strategy for the treatment of depressive disorders.
