Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to identify the mechanisms of fear memory extinction from the memory engram level. Using a transgenic mouse line that can label and manipulate memory engram cells, and optogenetics, we found the brain regions which control both fear and extinction, or either fear or extinction.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
恐怖と消去の両方を担う神経細胞集団が存在するという可能性は、この細胞集団に着目し、転換を制御し、消去誘導に関わる分子実態を明らかにする研究に発展する可能性があり、このことは、消去が心的外傷後ストレス障害といった疾患の治療標的として注目されているが、将来有効な治療薬開発の基礎研究として発展する可能性もある。
