Respiration and brain neural dynamics associated with interval timing during odor fear learning in rats

Abstract: In fear conditioning, where a conditioned stimulus predicts the arrival of an aversive stimulus, the animal encodes the time interval between the two stimuli. Here we monitored respiration to visualize anticipatory behavioral responses in an odor fear conditioning in rats, while recording theta (5–15 Hz) and gamma (40–80 Hz) brain oscillatory activities in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), basolateral amygdala (BLA), dorsomedial striatum (DMS) and olfactory piriform cortex (PIR). We investigated the tempora… Show more

“…In line with the literature (Davis et al, 1989;Dìaz-Mataix et al, 2013;Drew et al, 2005;Dupin et al, 2020;Laurent-Demir & Jaffard, 2000;Ohyama et al, 2006;, our results support the assumption that learning a time interval happens early in conditioning, and further suggest that the expression of that learning can be modulated by the dorsal striatum. Indeed, inactivation of the dorsal striatum hastened behavioral adaptation of the animal to a novel duration.…”

“…To avoid these possibly confounding factors, we used a non-striatum-dependent behavioral measure, the respiratory frequency, to assess the interval timing ability in a Pavlovian fear conditioning associating an odor to a mild footshock. Indeed, the pattern of respiratory frequency has been shown to be a good index temporal expectation of the shock arrival (Boulanger Bertolus et al, 2014;Dupin et al, 2020;Shionoya et al, 2013). This allowed us to look more 4 closely at the role of dorsal striatum and its dopamine level in the initial acquisition of an interval duration, as well as when a change in this duration is applied.…”

This result suggests that an intact dorsal striatum allows the preservation of the temporal behavioral response pattern to the previously learned time interval at the detriment of the shift of the pattern toward the new duration.…”

“…Here, using a nonmotor task -Pavlovian fear conditioning -and assessing the animals' behavioral temporal response through respiration, allowed us to overcome this confound, uncovering a previously undescribed role for the striatum. Our results also concur with previous findings indicating that measuring the respiratory response is relevant to understand the brain activity associated with emotions (Dupin et al, 2019;Moberly et al, 2018), including in the context of interval timing (Dupin et al, 2020). As animals were first conditioned to a 20-s interval duration and then shifted to a 30-s duration, one may wonder whether the respiratory patterns observed for these two durations could reflect non-specific changes in performance with trials repetition instead of temporal adaptation to the new duration.…”
