“…Trace fear conditioning was performed as reported previously (Wu et al, 2008;Zhao et al, 2005a). Briefly, the conditioned stimulus (CS) used was an 80-db white noise, delivered for 15 s, and the unconditioned stimulus (US) was a FMRP and cortical late-phase long-term potentiation T Chen et al 0.75-mA electric foot shock for 0.5 s. At 30 min after saline, MPEP, SB415286, or CT99021 microinjection into the ACC, mice were placed into the chamber and acclimated for 5 min, and were presented with 10 trials in the following order: CStrace-US-intertrial interval (ITI) (trace period ¼ 30 s, ITI ¼ 210 s).…”
