Neuroimaging in the pre-ictal or premonitory phase of migraine: a narrative review.

The premonitory phase, or prodrome, of migraine, provides valuable opportunities to study attack initiation and for treating the attack before headache starts. Much that has been learned about this phase […]

Mechanisms of initiation of cortical spreading depression.

There is increasing evidence from human and animal studies that cortical spreading depression (CSD) is the neurophysiological correlate of migraine aura and a trigger of migraine pain mechanisms. The mechanisms […]

Galcanezumab treatment changes visual related EEG connectivity patterns in migraine patients.

Monoclonal antibodies against calcitonin gene-related peptides (CGRP) are innovative therapies for migraine treatment. Although they are clinically effective, how anti-CGRP treatment reduces migraine attacks still remains unclear.

Rutaecarpine alleviates migraine in nitroglycerin-induced mice by regulating PTEN/PGK1 signaling pathway to activate NRF2 antioxidant system.

Due to its widespread prevalence, migraine is a common neurovascular condition that has a major impact on people’s health and quality of life. Rutaecarpine (RUT) is one of the main […]

The effect of erenumab on brain network function in episodic migraine patients: a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial (RESET BRAIN).

We aimed to explore whether erenumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor, could exert a central effect on brain network function in migraine, and investigate the persistence […]

Altered resting-state effective connectivity of trigeminal vascular system in migraine without aura: A spectral dynamic causal modeling study.

The trigeminal vascular system is an important part of the anatomical and physiological basis of migraine. The effective connectivity (EC) among the regions of interest (ROIs) in the trigeminal vascular […]

Exploring sensory sensitivity, cortical excitability, and habituation in episodic migraine, as a function of age and disease severity, using the pattern-reversal task.

Migraine is a cyclic, neurosensory disorder characterized by recurrent headaches and altered sensory processing. The latter is manifested in hypersensitivity to visual stimuli, measured with questionnaires and sensory thresholds, as […]

Calcitonin/PAC receptor splice variants: a blind spot in migraine research.

The neuropeptides calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) and their receptors are linked to migraine neurobiology. Recent antimigraine therapeutics targeting the signaling of these neuropeptides are […]

Second messenger signaling bypasses CGRP receptor blockade to provoke migraine attacks in humans.

There are several endogenous molecules that can trigger migraine attacks when administered to humans. Notably, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has been identified as a key player in a signaling cascade […]
