Fig 3. Effect of propranolol on reconsolidation of traumatic memory without any stress in the “city-like” paradigm.

(A): Latencies (mean + SEM) to enter the different compartments of the “city-like” box. Shock; compartment where mice received the shocks during the acquisition (position 6 on Fig 2); R cues: compartments presenting the tactile (position 1) and visual (position 3) cues that were reactivated. NR cues; compartments presenting non reactivated auditory (positions 7) and olfactory (position 9) cues. Neutral: neutral compartments (position 2, 4, 5, and 8). (B): avoidance percentage corresponding to the proportion of animals that entered the Shock and the Plate compartments during the test. *: p < .05, **: p < .01 between NaCl and Propranolol groups in the “no stress” condition. ^§: p < .001, ^§§§: p < .001 between the different compartments. (NaCl n = 12; Propranolol n = 15).
