LTP Facilitation

Meaning

LTP Facilitation, or Long-Term Potentiation Facilitation, is the process of enhancing the persistent strengthening of synapses based on recent patterns of activity, a mechanism widely accepted as the cellular basis for learning and long-term memory. Clinically, promoting this facilitation is a key target for improving cognitive performance and increasing neuroplasticity, especially in the context of hormonal aging. This enhanced synaptic efficiency is vital for maintaining mental sharpness.
