  • Traumatic Brain Injury (Rodent)
  • 40–60% reduction in TNF-α, IL-1β within 48 hours; reduced lesion volume at 7 days
  • BDNF expression increased 25–35% by week 2; NGF elevated 20% by week 3
  • Axonal sprouting evident at 8 weeks; synaptic density +30% vs control at 12 weeks
  • Strong acute effect, moderate long-term structural benefit. Requires sustained dosing beyond 8 weeks
  • Neurodegenerative Disease (Alzheimer's Model)
  • Microglial M1→M2 shift within 72 hours; reduced Aβ plaque-associated inflammation
  • Modest BDNF increase (15–20%) by week 4; variable NGF response
  • Dendritic spine density +15–20% at 16 weeks; inconsistent cognitive improvement
  • Anti-inflammatory effects clear; structural repair partial. Best as adjunct therapy
  • Stroke/Ischemic Injury
  • Infarct size reduced 20–30% when administered within 6 hours; oxidative stress markers down 40%
  • VEGF and BDNF both elevated 30–40% by week 2
  • Angiogenesis increased, functional motor recovery +25% at 8 weeks vs control
  • Excellent acute neuroprotection if dosed early; long-term recovery dependent on rehabilitation
  • Peripheral Neuropathy
  • Pain scores reduced 30–40% within 5–7 days; reduced inflammatory infiltrate
  • NGF and GDNF both elevated 35–50% by week 3–4
  • Nerve conduction velocity improved 15–25% at 12 weeks; partial remyelination
  • Strong acute symptom relief; structural nerve repair requires 12+ weeks
