Impairments in fear extinction memory and basolateral amygdala plasticity in the TgF344-AD rat model of Alzheimer’s disease are distinct from non-pathological aging

Abstract excerpt
Fear-based disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) steepen age-related cognitive decline and doubles the risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease. Due to the seemingly hyperactive properties of fear memories, PTSD symptoms can worsen with age.
