Astrocyte-mediated Synaptogenesis

Astrocyte-Mediated Synaptogenesis is a biological mechanism within synaptic development wherein astrocytes actively orchestrate the formation, maturation, and functional modulation of synapses through secreted factors, cell-surface molecules, and direct physical interactions with pre- and postsynaptic neurons.
