Prenatal immune activation did not affect the acquisition and expression of contextual fear conditioning. (a) Intact acquisition of fear conditioning in offspring born to PolyI:C-exposed (POL) or control (CON) mothers. The line plots show percent time freezing during the 30-s post-shock bins on the day of conditioning, and the bar plots show the mean percent time freezing across the entire post-shock period. The black arrowheads indicate the occurrence of the foot-shock stimulus. (b) Intact expression of contextual fear memory in POL and CON offspring. The line plots display percent time freezing as a function of 30-s bins during the contextual memory test phase, and the bar plots show the mean percent time freezing across the entire 6-min test period. N(CON)=16, N(POL)=16. All values are mean±s.e.m.
