Article Synopsis
- Fear learning is crucial for survival, but traumatic experiences can lead to excessive fear responses, as seen in PTSD, through abnormal fear consolidation and overgeneralization.*
-
- Research examined the role of adenosine A receptors (AR) in fear memory; blocking these receptors after fear conditioning increased fear generalization, while activating them reduced it.*
-
- Findings indicate that ARs influence long-term potentiation in key brain areas during fear consolidation, suggesting they could be a target for treatments addressing fear-related disorders like PTSD.*
