Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

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.

Peripheral targets for neuropathic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Neuropathic pain represents a significant clinical challenge, with still limited pharmacological approaches to symptomatic relief. This review focuses on molecular targets implicated in neuropathic pain, particularly those involved in peripheral mechanisms. Using the IUPHAR/BPS database of biological targets, their occurrence together with ‘neuropathic

Systematic profiling reveals broad G protein coupling and context‐dependent modulation of cyclic AMP by the orphan receptor GPR139

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major drug targets, yet many orphan receptors remain poorly characterized. GPR139 has been implicated in CNS disorders, including schizophrenia and depression, but its signalling mechanisms remain unclear.

Inhibition of the NR4A1‐mediated cell cycle checkpoint enhances hyperplastic adipogenesis and glucose homeostasis in obesity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose The nuclear receptor NR4A1 is a critical node in transcriptional circuits for metabolic adaptation, yet its role in adipocyte progenitor (AP) fate and proliferation is unclear. We sought to define how NR4A1 governs early adipogenesis and adipose tissue plasticity.
