Flavell, Charlotte R.; Gascoyne, Rebecca M.; Lee, Jonathan L. C. – Learning & Memory, 2020
The efficacy of pharmacological disruption of fear memory reconsolidation depends on several factors, including memory strength and age. We built on previous observations that systemic treatment with the nootropic nefiracetam potentiates cued fear memory destabilization to facilitate mifepristone-induced reconsolidation impairment. Here, we…
