Disruption of long-term alcohol-related memory reconsolidation: Role of β-adrenoceptors and NMDA receptors

Disrupting reconsolidation of drug-related memories may be effective in reducing the incidence of relapse. In the current study we examine whether alcohol- related memories are prone to disruption by the β -adrenergicreceptor antagonist propranolol (10 mg/kg) and the NMDA receptor antagonis...
