Mouse study reveals rapid influx of cerebral spinal fluid and protein solutes in aura symptoms cause aural migraine headaches, suggesting potential treatments.

Mice study uncovers a novel non-synaptic signaling mechanism between the brain and peripheral sensory system in migraines, identifying rapid influx of cerebral spinal fluid and protein solutes released during cortical spreading depression as triggers for aural migraine headaches. This research suggests potential pharmacological targets for treating the painful disorder and reveals the connection between aura symptoms and migraine.
