Cerebrolysin
Cerebrolysin is a low molecular weight peptide preparation derived from porcine sources, containing free amino acids. It is known for its neuroprotective and neurotrophic properties, which are similar to those of endogenous neurotrophic factors. These factors are essential for the growth, maintenance, and repair of neurons.
Composition of Cerebrolysin
Cerebrolysin contains a blend of peptides, including:
Nerve Growth Factor (NGF)
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)
Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF)
Enkephalins
Orexin
Common Indications/Treatments
Cerebrolysin is used in the treatment of:
Alzheimer’s Disease
Vascular Dementia
Stroke Recovery
Traumatic Brain Injury
Peripheral Neuropathy
Multiple Sclerosis
Parkinson’s Disease
Mechanism of Action
Cerebrolysin’s exact mechanism is not fully understood, but it is believed to interact with inhibitory modulators to promote neurogenic and neuroprotective activities.
Potential Benefits of Cerebrolysin
Central Nervous System Stimulation: Enhances overall CNS function
Increased Intracellular Peptide Synthesis: Supports neuronal health
Improved Brain Tissue Metabolism: Aids in brain tissue function
Prevention of Free Radical Formation: Protects against oxidative stress
Reduction of Neurotoxic Amino Acid Effects: Mitigates harmful effects of certain amino acids
Neuronal Protection from Lactic Acidosis: Shields neurons from metabolic stress
Important Information
Cerebrolysin is considered extremely safe and well-tolerated. The most common side effect is minor redness at the injection site, with no major adverse effects reported.
