Cellular Gene Expression Modulation

Meaning

Cellular Gene Expression Modulation refers to the precise control over which genes are transcribed into mRNA and subsequently translated into proteins within a cell, often dictated by hormonal signals. In the context of wellness science, this describes how signaling molecules alter the fundamental machinery governing cellular identity and function. This modulation is the molecular basis for long-term adaptation to physiological changes, such as those induced by sex hormones or adrenal axis activity. It is how the cell interprets its environment.
