Peripheral Receptor Targets for Analgesia reviews the role of peripheral receptor mechanisms in the transduction of pain, providing a framework for the development of new and effective rationally designed analgesic drugs and therapies with and promoting further basic and clinical studies on potentially interesting peripheral receptor targets. It uniquely brings together in one text the diverse body of work on peripheral receptor mechanisms of pain. This comprehensive reference aids pharmaceutical scientists, pharmacologists, and neuroscientists developing drugs and researching pain in achieving selectivity in drug therapy for more efficient pain management.
Brian Cairns is Canada Research Chair in Neuropharmacology and an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of British Columbia. The author of book chapters (including in Wiley's Handbook of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology) and more than fifty journal articles, Dr. Cairns also teaches undergraduate and graduate students about pain research and treatment, and contributes to the activities of several well-known pain research societies.
