[EN] The invention relates to the use of TAKl inhibitors for the preparation of a drug for the prevention and treatment of peritoneal membrane failure, said use preventing and reversing the mesenchymal-epithelial transition experienced by the mesothelial cells of the peritoneum during peritoneal dialysis treatment. In addition, the invention relates to the use of a TAKl expression product or of its activity as a biomarker for determining peritoneal fibrosis. The invention further relates to the method for obtaining data that can be used in the diagnosis and/or prognosis of peritoneal fibrosis and to a method for predicting the progression ofperitoneal fibrosis. The invention also relates to the use of a kit comprising the sequence that codes for TAKl or the protein for the diagnosis of peritoneal fibrosis.
[ES] La presente invención se refiere al uso de inhibidores de TAKl para la preparación de un medicamento para la prevención y tratamiento del fracaso de la membrana peritoneal. Donde dicho uso previene y revierte la transición epitelio mesénquima que sufren las células mesoteliales del peritoneo durante el tratamiento de diálisis peritoneal. También, al uso de un producto de expresión de TAKl o de su actividad como biomarcador para la detenninación de fibrosis peritoneal. Al método de obtención de datos útiles en el diagnóstico y/o pronóstico de la fibrosis peritoneal; un método para predecir la progresión de la fibrosis peritoneal. Así como el uso de un kit que comprende la secuencia que codifica para TAKl o la proteína para el diagnóstico de la fibrosis peritoneal.
