Categorías: Neurogénesis, Reparación y Recuperación, Información General
Las lesiones cerebrales agudas como stroke y traumatismos causan daño devastador. Los peptidos terapeuticos ofrecen nuevas estrategias para proteger el tejido y promover la recuperacion funcional.

Preguntas frecuentes
- En que fases actuan los peptidos para lesion cerebral?
- Fase aguda (horas): neuroproteccion anti-excitotoxicidad, antioxidante, anti-apoptosis. Fase subaguda (dias-semanas): neurogenesis, angiogenesis, antiinflamacion. Fase cronica (meses): plasticidad, rehabilitacion.
- Por que muchos neuroprotectores fallan en clinica?
- Ventana terapeutica muy corta, seleccion inadecuada de pacientes, endpoints no optimos, y enfoque en un solo mecanismo cuando la cascada es multifactorial. Los nuevos trials abordan estos issues.
- Como se relacionan neurogenesis y angiogenesis?
- Son procesos acoplados. Los nuevos vasos forman el nicho vascular que soporta neurogenesis. VEGF estimula ambos procesos. Sin vascularizacion adecuada, las nuevas neuronas no sobreviven.
- Se pueden usar peptidos en fase cronica?
- Si, peptidos que promueven plasticidad y potencian rehabilitacion pueden mejorar recovery incluso meses despues de la lesion. La plasticidad cerebral persiste, aunque en grado reducido.
