subtypes that are based on the absence or presence of an aura: migraine without aura (MO) …

We test the possibility that political attitudes and behaviors are the result of both
environmental and genetic factors. Employing standard methodological approaches in …

Introduction: Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a key molecule in migraine
pathogenesis. Intravenous CGRP infusion triggers delayed migraine-like attacks in patients …

Insight into the molecular mechanisms involved in primary headaches is important to identify
drug targets for improving treatment of patients, but essentially lacking. Genetic research is …

Integration of genetic, phenotypic and epigenetic data will help to identify the biological
mechanisms by which genetic factors contribute to migraine pathogenesis. Recent studies …

Twin studies provide a method for estimating the heritability of phenotypes and for
examining genetic and environmental relationships between phenotypes. We conducted a …

(Headache 2011; 51: 752‐778) Pain research, and headache research in particular, during

Background Migraine is considered a multifactorial genetic disorder. Different platforms and
methods are used to unravel the genetic basis of migraine. Initially, linkage analysis in …

The issue of interictal excitability of cortical neurons in migraine patients is controversial:
some studies have reported hypo-, others hyperexcitability. The aim of the present study was …
