Sinaptogénesis
Sign in to saveAlso known as GO:0007416, synapse biogenesis, synaptogenesis
Synaptogenesis is the formation of synapses between neurons in the nervous system. Although it occurs throughout a healthy person's lifespan, an explosion of synapse formation occurs during early brain development, known as exuberant synaptogenesis. Synaptogenesis is particularly important during an individual's critical period, during which there is a certain degree of synaptic pruning due to competition for neural growth factors by neurons and synapses. Processes that are not used, or inhibited during their critical period will fail to develop normally later on in life.

La sinaptogénesis es la formación de la sinapsis. A pesar de que se produce durante toda la vida en una persona sana, una explosión formadora de sinapsis se produce durante el desarrollo temprano del cerebro. La sinaptogénesis es particularmente importante en un individuo durante la "etapa crítica" de su vida, en el que hay un cierto grado de poda neuronal debido a la competencia de los factores de crecimiento neuronal por parte de las neuronas y las sinapsis. Los procesos que no se utilizan, o que son inhibidos durante este período crítico no podrán desarrollarse normalmente más tarde en la vida.
