Inhibition of prefrontal glutamatergic neuron activity during the recovery period following chronic stress disrupts fear memory in male rats: potential role of the infralimbic cortex

BW measures taken throughout the duration of the experiment. Body weight increased throughout the experiment in all treatment groups. CON gained weight across the duration of the experiment and was unaffected by virus type. For STR-R3, body weight gain was attenuated during restraint compared to STR-IMM and CON and was unaffected by virus type. For STR-IMM, body weight gain was attenuated during restraint compared to CON and was unaffected by virus type. Data are reported as means ± SEM. (**) P < 0.01, (***) P < 0.0001.
