As implied by the work of Karim Nader, inhibiting NMDA receptors or the proteasome should prevent destabilization.

If the proteasome is inhibited just prior to memory reactivation, _______. (Select all that apply.)

Cue-dependent amnesia refers to a phenomenon in which retrieving a memory returns it into a labile state that makes it vulnerable to disruption.

According to reconsolidation theory, retrieving a consolidated memory can unbind or destabilize the supporting synapses.

Which response(s) is/are not part of Nader’s reconsolidation theory? (Select all that apply.)

As implied by the work of Karim Nader, inhibiting AMPA receptors should prevent memory destabilization.

Karl Lashley invented the term engram.

Cue-dependent amnesia refers to the forgetting induced by the retrieval of another memory.

Brain lesion techniques can be considered a starting point in the search for engrams.

Neurons that overexpress CREB win in the competition for becoming engram cells because their intrinsic excitability is increased.
