Résumé
Considerable research efforts have been exerted toward understanding the mechanisms underlying recovery in aphasia. However, predictive models of spontaneous and treatment-induced recovery remain imprecise. Some of the hitherto unexplained variability in recovery may be accounted for with genetic data. A few studies have examined the effects of the BDNF val66met polymorphism on aphasia recovery, yielding mixed results. Advances in the study of stroke genetics and genetics of stroke recovery, including identification of several susceptibility genes through candidate-gene or genome-wide association studies, may have implications for the recovery of language function. The current chapter discusses both the direct and indirect evidence for a genetic basis of aphasia recovery, the implications of recent findings within the field, and potential future directions to advance understanding of the genetics-recovery associations.
