Calcitonin gene–related peptide in migraine: from pathophysiology to treatment
Neurología (English Edition), 2022 Introduction: It has been observed in recent years that levels of such molecules as calcitonin gene–related peptide (CGRP) and, to a lesser extent, the pituitary adenylate cyclase–activating peptide are elevated during migraine attacks and in chronic ...
