The paper investigates how PKMζ levels change during memory destabilization and reconsolidation, showing transient reduction followed by renewal, and identifies NMDA receptor activation as necessary for memory vulnerability to PKMζ-antisense.

The paper shows that activation of the noradrenaline-locus coeruleus system during strong fear memory encoding increases stability in the amygdala, making memories resistant to reconsolidation.
