Abstract
Dysfunction of glutamatergic neurons in Alzheimer's disease may actually participate in some of the neurodegenerative processes via potential excitotoxic mechanisms. Two hypotheses are advanced which describe how a generalized excitotoxic mechanism could interact with unique metabolic properties of specific cell types leading to their selective vulnerability in Alzheimer's disease.
