    Abstract: In recent studies, inactivation of the dorsal hippocampus before the retrieval of extinguished fear memories disrupted the context-dependent expression of these memories. In the present experiments, we examined the role of the dorsal hippocampus in the acquisition of extinction. After pairing an auditory conditional stimulus (CS) with an aversive footshock [unconditional stimulus (US)], rats received an extinction session in which the CS was presented without the US. In experiment 1, infusion of muscimol, a GABA A receptor agonist, into the dorsal hippocampus before the extinction training session decreased the rate of extinction. Moreover, when later tested for fear to the extinguished CS, all rats that had received hippocampal inactivation before extinction training demonstrated renewed fear regardless of the context in which testing took place. This suggests a role for the dorsal hippocampus in both acquiring the extinction memory and encoding the CS–context relationship that yields the context dependence of extinction. In experiment 2, inactivation of the dorsal hippocampus before testing also disrupted the context dependence of fear to the extinguished CS. In experiment 3, quantitative autoradiography revealed the boundaries of muscimol diffusion after infusion into the dorsal hippocampus. Together, these results reveal that the dorsal hippocampus is involved in the acquisition, contextual encoding, and context-dependent retrieval of fear extinction. Learning and remembering when and where aversive events occur is essential for adaptive emotional regulation.

    Abstract: The amygdala is an essential neural substrate for Pavlovian fear conditioning. Nevertheless, long‐term synaptic plasticity in amygdaloid afferents, such as the auditory thalamus, may contribute to the formation of fear memories. We therefore compared the influence of protein synthesis inhibition in the amygdala and the auditory thalamus on the consolidation of Pavlovian fear conditioning in Long–Evans rats. Rats received three tone‐footshock trials in a novel conditioning chamber. Immediately after fear conditioning, rats were infused intra‐cranially with the protein synthesis inhibitor, anisomycin. Conditional fear to the tone and conditioning context was assessed by measuring freezing behaviour in separate retention tests conducted at least 24 h following conditioning. Post‐training infusion of anisomycin into the amygdala impaired conditional freezing to both the auditory and contextual stimuli associated with footshock. In contrast, intra‐thalamic infusions of anisomycin or a broad‐spectrum protein kinase inhibitor [1‐(5′‐isoquinolinesulphonyl)‐2‐methylpiperazine, H7] did not affect conditional freezing during the retention tests. Pre‐training intra‐thalamic infusion of the NMDA receptor antagonist 2‐amino‐5‐phosphonopentanoic acid (APV), which blocks synaptic transmission in the auditory thalamus, produced a selective deficit in the acquisition of auditory fear conditioning. Autoradiographic assays of cerebral [ 14 C]‐leucine incorporation revealed similar levels of protein synthesis inhibition in the amygdala and thalamus following intra‐cranial anisomycin infusions. These results reveal that the establishment of long‐term fear memories requires protein synthesis in the amygdala, but not the thalamus, after auditory fear conditioning. Forms of synaptic plasticity that depend on protein synthesis, such as long‐term potentiation, are likely candidates for the encoding and long‐term storage of fear memories in the amygdala.

    Abstract: Anxiety disorders are thought to reflect deficits in the regulation of fear expression. Evidence from rodent studies implicates the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) in the regulation of conditioned fear. Lesions of the vmPFC have had differing effects on the acquisition and expression of conditioned fear, as well as on recall of extinction. The use of permanent lesions, however, makes it difficult to assess the phase of training in which the vmPFC is acting and can trigger recruitment of other structures, thereby masking lesion deficits. To overcome these problems, we temporarily inactivated the vmPFC of rats with tetrodotoxin (10 ng in a 0.5‐µl midline infusion) at one of four time points: prior to conditioning, prior to extinction, immediately after extinction or prior to recall of extinction. Consistent with lesion findings, inactivation of the vmPFC prior to acquisition had no effect but inactivation prior to extinction led to impaired recall of extinction the following day. In contrast to lesion findings, inactivation of the vmPFC decreased freezing at all time points, suggesting that some component of the vmPFC facilitates the expression of conditioned fear. These findings suggest that inactivation of the vmPFC can have opposite effects depending on the phase of training. The vmPFC appears to be involved both in stimulating the expression of conditioned fear and in serving as a site of extinction‐related plasticity that inhibits fear during recall of extinction.

    Abstract: Anxiety disorders are commonly treated with exposure-based therapies that rely on extinction of conditioned fear. Persistent fear and anxiety following exposure therapy could reflect a deficit in the recall of extinction learning. Animal models of fear learning have elucidated a neural circuit for extinction learning and recall that includes the amygdala, ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), and hippocampus. Whereas the amygdala is important for extinction learning, the vmPFC is a site of neural plasticity that allows for the inhibition of fear during extinction recall. We suggest that the vmPFC receives convergent information from other brain regions, such as contextual information from the hippocampus, to determine the circumstances under which extinction or fear will be recalled. Imaging studies of human fear conditioning and extinction lend credence to this extinction network. Understanding the neural circuitry underlying extinction recall will lead to more effective therapies for disorders of fear and anxiety.

    Abstract: Retrieval of fear memories can be state-dependent, meaning that they are best retrieved if the brain states at encoding and retrieval are similar. Such states can be induced by activating extrasynaptic γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABA A R) with the broad α-subunit activator gaboxadol. However, the circuit mechanisms and specific subunits underlying gaboxadol's effects are not well understood. Here we show that gaboxadol induces profound changes of local and network oscillatory activity, indicative of discoordinated hippocampal–cortical activity, that were accompanied by robust and long-lasting state-dependent conditioned fear. Episodic memories typically are hippocampus-dependent for a limited period after learning, but become cortex-dependent with the passage of time. In contrast, state-dependent memories continued to rely on hippocampal GABAergic mechanisms for memory retrieval. Pharmacological approaches with α-subunit-specific agonists targeting the hippocampus implicated the prototypic extrasynaptic subunits (α 4 ) as the mediator of state-dependent conditioned fear. Together, our findings suggest that continued dependence on hippocampal rather than cortical mechanisms could be an important feature of state-dependent memories that contributes to their conditional retrieval.

    Abstract: After extinction of fear to a Pavlovian conditional stimulus (CS), contextual stimuli come to regulate the expression of fear to that CS. There is growing evidence that the context dependence of memory retrieval after extinction involves the hippocampus. In the present experiment, we examine whether hippocampal involvement in memory retrieval after extinction is related to the history of CS presentations in the context used for retrieval testing. We used infusions of muscimol to inactivate the dorsal hippocampus (DH) during postextinction retrieval tests that were conducted in contexts that differed in their history of CS presentations in that context. We found that DH inactivation affected the context-dependent retrieval of extinction (i.e., renewal) when testing occurred in a context that had no history of CS exposure, but not in a context that reliably predicted the CS. These results are discussed in terms of theories regarding the role of the hippocampus in contextual memory retrieval.

    Abstract: As memories age, their processing increasingly relies upon cortical rather than hippocampal circuits, but the adaptive significance and mechanisms of this shift are not fully understood. Here we investigated the behavioral features and cortical mechanisms underlying extinction of remotely versus recently acquired context fear in mice. Behaviorally, extinction and reinstatement were similar, but re-extinction of remote fear was significantly faster, suggesting time-dependent engagement of mechanisms specific for processing remote memory. Using pharmacological manipulations of NMDA receptors and associated signaling pathways in the in the retrosplenial cortex, we demonstrated that extinction of remote fear uniquely required NR2B-mediated downregulation of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)/cAMP response element-binding protein pathway. Interestingly, NR2B/PKA interactions weakened independently of the age of the memory, but the functional significance of this molecular change was evident only as memory retrieval became PKA-dependent over time. Thus, cortical PKA signaling may provide a molecular signature of when a memory has become “remote,” and inhibition of this pathway may open the door for modulation of remote memories.
