Amide‐Linked Local Anesthetics Alter Tumor Biology in a Complex Human Tissue Model of Non‐Small Cell Lung Adenocarcinoma

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Amide local anesthetics (LA) affect tumor burden in various preclinical studies, possibly via their anti‐inflammatory properties. However, a translation into clinical evidence is still lacking. The current study demonstrates that LA ‐ even at clinically relevant concentrations – exert a strong anti‐tumoral effect in a complex ex vivo model patient ...

Engineering Topographical Cues to Enhance Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury: Overcoming Challenges and Advancing Therapies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...
