Connective Tissue Regeneration

Meaning

Connective tissue regeneration is the intricate biological process of repairing, restoring, or replacing damaged or aging structural tissues such as bone, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and the dermal matrix of the skin. This essential process is crucial for maintaining structural integrity, mobility, and overall tissue health throughout the lifespan. Hormonal status significantly influences the rate and quality of regeneration, as hormones like growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), and sex steroids play direct roles in cell proliferation and matrix synthesis. Supporting this regeneration is key to promoting physical longevity and resilience.
