Summary: Contextual memories are critical for survival but must be extinguished when new conditions render them nonproductive. By most accounts, extinction forms a new memory that competes with the original association for control over behavior, but the underlying circuit mechanisms remain largely enigmatic. Here, we demonstrate that extinction of contextual fear conditioning recruits somatostatin interneurons (SST-INs) in the ventral hippocampus. Correspondingly, real-time activity of SST-INs correlates with transitions between immobility and movement, signaling exit from defensive freezing bouts. Optogenetic manipulation of SST-INs but not parvalbumin interneurons (PV-INs) elicits bidirectional changes in freezing that are specific to the context in which extinction was acquired. Finally, similar effects were obtained following extinction of sucrose-based appetitive conditioning, in which SST-IN inhibition triggers relapse to reward seeking. These data suggest that ventral hippocampal SST-INs play a fundamental role in extinction that is independent of affective valence and may be related to their disruption of spontaneous emotional responses. |
