Comparing the Molecular Pharmacological Properties of Existing β‐Blockers to Determine the Theoretically Most “Ideal” Anti‐Cancer β‐Blocker

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT There is increasing evidence, from cellular, animal and human epidemiological studies, linking β‐blockers with reductions in cancer growth and metastasis. Propranolol is the most investigated β‐blocker for cancer; although as many different off‐patent β‐blockers exist, there is little commercial incentive to drive comparative clinical trials ...

Non‐Response to Obeticholic Acid Is Associated With Heightened Risks of Developing Clinical Events in Primary Biliary Cholangitis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 494-506, February 2026.
In a multi‐centre study of obeticholic acid in primary biliary cholangitis, 45% discontinued the drug over 4 years, with 11% moving to combination therapy (fibrates). Of those continuing, response rates increased from 37% (1 year) to 55% (4 years). Non‐response at 12 months and cirrhosis were independent predictors of liver‐related events.

Alterations in Gut Microbiota and Metabolism in Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension: Implications for Disease Progression

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 538-556, February 2026.
In‐depth multiomics analyses revealed that the gut microbiota in patients with CPH is dysbiotic. Altered gut microbiota plays an important role in the progression of CPH and affects the host's arginine metabolism to promote arginine biosynthesis. The pro‐inflammatory effects of certain gut bacteria induce iNOS expression, which together act on the ...
