Biomodulators

Meaning

Biomodulators are a class of agents, which can be endogenous molecules or exogenous compounds, that are capable of altering or regulating a specific biological response or physiological process within the body. These substances do not typically initiate a new function but rather fine-tune the amplitude, duration, or specificity of existing cellular signaling pathways, including those governed by the endocrine system. They are employed clinically to restore homeostatic balance or enhance a suboptimal biological function.
