In fact, survival after stroke diminishes largely with aging. Infact, recovery after brain artery occlusion is dramatically worsenedby aging, even normal aging is associated with neuron damage andcognitive decline. Mechanisms involved in aging-related, cognitivedecline and susceptibility to neuron damage in stroke and neurodegeneration are largely unknown. One of the most important mechanisms contributing to neural dysfunction and death is excitotoxicity. This process is based on the fact that the excessive glutamatereceptor stimulation may lead to neuronal damage. This overstimulation may be due to increased concentration of glutamate, or theprolonged activation of receptors.
