Formación de cálculos biliares de colesterol. Nuevos avances científicos

Ibrahim Castro

Resumen


La investigación científica sobre la formación de cálculos biliares de colesterol, ha comprobado la participación de numerosos genes, entre los cuales se encuentran receptores nucleares y transportadores biliares. El desequilibrio fisicoquímico entre los lípidos biliares más importantes produce hipersecreción de colesterol en la bilis, una etapa necesaria para sobresaturar la vesícula biliar. Las sales biliares son insuficientes para solubilizar al colesterol en micelas mixtas, por lo que esta molécula se solubiliza, en su mayoría, dentro de liposomas (fosfolípidos y escasas sales biliares), y en ellos existe en alta concentración, que tiende a precipitar y a formar cristales, evento considerado como limitante para la formación de cálculos biliares. El desarrollo del cálculo puede acelerarse si existe hipersecreción de proteínas mucinas y escasa motilidad vesicular. La presente revisión tiene el objetivo de informar los nuevos aportes científicos sobre la formación de cálculos biliares de colesterol, analizando y discutiendo sus resultados enfocados a la búsqueda de tratamientos farmacológicos, porque la litiasis no tiene terapia eficaz y la colecistectomía es el método quirúrgico invasivo, cuando la enfermedad produce síntomas.
