Synaptic Repair Signaling

Meaning

Synaptic Repair Signaling is a complex biological process encompassing the molecular and cellular communication pathways that detect, mitigate, and reverse damage to the synapses, the specialized junctions between neurons. This signaling is vital for maintaining the structural integrity and functional connectivity of the neural network, which is often compromised by chronic stress, neuroinflammation, and the aging process. Hormonal and nutritional factors play a significant role in promoting this repair, thereby supporting cognitive health and resilience. Successful repair signaling is a key element of long-term neuroplasticity.
