Phylogenomic analysis reveals extensive phylogenetic mosaicism in the Human GPCR Superfamily [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A novel high throughput phylogenomic analysis (HTP) was applied to the rhodopsin G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. Instances of phylogenetic mosaicism between receptors were found to be frequent, often as instances of correlated mosaicism and ...

Activation of peripheral NOP receptors reduces periorbital mechanical allodynia evoked by CGRP in mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Migraine is a neurovascular disorder largely mediated by calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP). This study explores the role of the nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)–N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system in CGRP‐induced periorbital mechanical allodynia (PMA) in mice.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

open access: yesBritish 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.

Use of sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus in British Columbia

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Clinical guidelines recommend sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and established or high risk of cardiorenal disease. This study examined real‐world SGLT2i use patterns among older adults with T2DM in British Columbia, Canada.
