Synaptogenèse
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 synaptogenèse est la formation des synapses. Bien qu'elle se produise tout au long de la durée de vie d'une personne saine, une explosion de la formation des synapses se produit au cours du développement précoce du cerveau. On prend pour exemple la mise en place de la jonction neuromusculaire.
