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.

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...

Adiponectin promotes AMPA receptor trafficking and enhances excitatory synaptic transmission at hippocampal synapses via AMP‐activated protein kinase signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Peripherally derived adiponectin crosses the blood–brain barrier and targets severa0l brain regions. Adiponectin receptors are highly expressed in the hippocampus, and play a pro‐cognitive role as adiponectin markedly influences the functioning of hippocampal synapses.

Asthma and Multimorbidity Amongst Ethnic Minority Groups in High Income Countries

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
There is a tight intersection between asthma, deprivation, ethnicity, multimorbidity and poor clinical outcomes. An integrated, holistic and culturally tailored approach is needed to improve clinical outcomes amongst ethnic minority groups with asthma and multimorbidity. ABSTRACT Asthma is one of the commonest noncommunicable diseases worldwide.

Effect of interdisciplinary obesity care on metabolic markers and body weight in people with type 2 diabetes in a rural setting: A randomised controlled trial

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Management of type 2 diabetes includes medications that can unintentionally increase obesity and insulin resistance. This unblinded, single‐centre, randomised controlled trial focused on rural Australian adults with type 2 diabetes (aged 18–75 and body mass index [BMI] >30 kg/m2), measuring the effectiveness of a tailored interdisciplinary ...

Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...
