Growth-associated gene and protein expression in the region of axonal sprouting in the aged brain after stroke

Aged individuals exhibit reduced functional recovery after stroke. We examined the expression profile in aged animals of a recently identified group of growth-associated genes that underlies post-stroke axonal sprouting in the young adult. Basal levels of most growth-promoting genes are higher in ag...
