Neuro-Cognitive Peptides

Meaning

Neuro-Cognitive Peptides are a diverse class of short-chain amino acid compounds that are endogenously produced and specifically modulate neuronal activity, influencing various higher-order brain functions. These biomolecules play a crucial role in regulating cognitive processes such as memory consolidation, learning acquisition, attention span, and executive function, acting as signaling molecules within the central nervous system to maintain neural homeostasis and facilitate adaptive responses.
