The invention generally relates to the field of medicine and pharmacology. More particularly, it relates to novel analogs of galanin, and the use thereof in therapy. Provided is a cyclic peptide analog of galanin, wherein the galanin analog comprises a (methyl)Lanthionine bridge and wherein the analog has the general formula “X1-X2-X3-X4-X5-X6-X7-X8-X9-X10-X11-X12-X13-X14-X15-X16-X17-X18-X19-X20-X21-X22-”, or a truncated variant thereof lacking X1 and/or up to 11 of the C-terminal residues, wherein two residues selected from the group consisting of X3, X4, X6, X7, X10 and X13-X19 together form a Lanthionine bridge of the structure Ala-S-Ala, or a methyl Lanthionine bridge of the structure Abu-S-Ala or Ala-S-Abu.
Galanin analog selected from the group consisting of:
