Imaging Migraine Aura   Morphogenesis

From the Aura to Headache

The aura is a sequence of complex events that lead from cortical excitation to the activation of pain-sensitive structures.

Neurophysiological mechanisms

From early migraine theories to a novel substance with anticonvulsant properties that attenuates trigeminal nerve-induced neurovascular reflexes. [currently redrafted]

Molecular mechanisms

The identification of target molecules may provide new therapies. [currently redrafted]

Genetics

Genetic epidemiological studies of migraine show increased disease risk in relatives of migraine sufferers. [currently redrafted]

AHS Meeting 2004

Many presentations of the 2004 meeting of the American Headache Society focused on the importance of the migraine aura and its pathomechanism. [more]
