Soma of RPeD1 is required for reconsolidation. Operant training was administered (TR1-TR4) over the course of 2 d (n = 19). Then 3 d later nine animals received a MR session (A), immediately followed by the ablation of the soma of RPeD1 (SoAb), whereas the remaining animals (B; n = 10) did not receive a MR session but still underwent the ablation procedure. Animals were tested for savings 4 d later. Memory was not observed in the group that received the MR session in conjunction with the ablation procedure. Memory was observed in the other soma-ablated group, the one that did not receive a MR session; ^*p < 0.01 as compared with MR.
