Effects of lercanidipine on traumatic spinal cord injury: an experimental study

CONCLUSION: Lercanidipine, a third-generation calcium channel blocker, is effective against inflammatory responses induced in spinal cord injury. Further studies are required to determine its capability in preventing apoptosis or improving functional recovery. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first in the literature to examine the neuroprotective effects of lercanidipine on spinal cord injury.PMID:38305651 | DOI:10.14744/tjtes.2024.03660
