Lipid Profile Brain Impact

Meaning

Lipid Profile Brain Impact refers to the direct and indirect influence of circulating blood lipids, including cholesterol and triglycerides, on the structure, function, and long-term health of the central nervous system. An optimal lipid profile is essential because cholesterol is a critical structural component of neuronal membranes and a precursor for neurosteroid synthesis. Conversely, a dysregulated profile, particularly elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or triglycerides, contributes to cerebrovascular risk, inflammation, and impaired neurogenesis, accelerating cognitive decline.
