The dynamic suppression of threat-related behavior as a function of
environmental constraint is critical for survival in mammals, yet the
neurobiological underpinnings remain largely unknown. In this issue of Neuron,
Wang et al.1 identified prefrontal dynorphin-expressing neurons as key elements
for tracking threat-related behavioral states and regulating fear suppression.
