|
• significantly less contextual freezing at 28 days after training
• significantly lower freezing during the pre-tone period at 28 days after training
|
• significantly less freezing behavior in response to the conditioned tone
|
• in the first 3 min of the light/dark transition test, mice travel significantly longer distances in the light chamber and spend more time in the light chamber suggesting a mild decrease in anxiety like behavior
