Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Level in Cystic Fibrosis Patients
LifeCalcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has long been implicated in both the physiology and pathophysiology of the respiratory tract. The objective of our study was to determine the serum concentration of alpha CGRP (αCGRP) in cystic fibrosis (CF) that ...

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Amylin analogues as a novel perspective in anti‐obesity therapy
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Public health systems face a major challenge because of the worldwide obesity epidemic. The number of obese individuals has increased dramatically and, even in Switzerland which may be considered a relatively “lean” country, the numbers are alarmingly high and have reached almost 50% of the adult population.
