Synaptic Connectivity

Meaning

Synaptic Connectivity refers to the structural integrity and functional efficiency of the synapses, the specialized junctions through which neurons transmit chemical and electrical signals across the central nervous system. This connectivity is the fundamental basis of all cognitive processes, including memory, focus, and mood regulation, and is profoundly influenced by neurosteroids, thyroid hormones, and neurotrophic factors. Maintaining robust connectivity is a primary goal of cognitive longevity strategies.
