Growth Factor Modulation

Meaning

Growth factor modulation is the clinical or physiological process of regulating the activity, concentration, and receptor sensitivity of polypeptide signaling molecules known as growth factors. These factors are essential for stimulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and tissue repair. Strategies for modulation, which may involve nutrition, lifestyle, or targeted agents, aim to optimize the body’s intrinsic regenerative and anabolic capacity for improved tissue maintenance and longevity.
