Pharmacological inactivation of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) prevents fear renewal in a novel context. a, Schematic diagram showing the experimental procedure for fear renewal with drug infusion. b, Percentage of freezing behavior across the conditioning, extinction and renewal sessions. Each dot represents the level of freezing when the conditioned stimulus (CS) was presented, except the first dot of each session, which shows the pre-CS baseline. c, Inactivation of the PPC significantly attenuated fear renewal in a novel context. d, Illustration of injector cannula tips in the PPC. FC, fear conditioning; EXT, extinction; REN, renewal; BL, baseline; VEH, vehicle; MUS, muscimol. *P < 0.05
