Data of ascending cortical vein occlusion induced spreading depression
The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled “Microembolism of single cortical arterioles can induce spreading depression and ischemic injury; a potential trigger for migraine and related MRI lesions” (Donmez-Demir et ...

Cortical spreading depression in migraine-time to reconsider?
New evidence concerning the pathophysiology of migraine has come from the results of therapeutic transcranial magnetic stimulation (tTMS). The instantaneous responses to single pulses applied during the aura or headache phase, together with a number of ...

Migraine is one of the most common pain disorders and causes disability in millions of people every year. Delta opioid receptors (DOR) have been identified as a novel therapeutic target for migraine and other headache disorders.

From “Transient Hemiopsia” to Migraine Aura
This paper outlines the historical development of the concept of the visual aura of migraine, from the first comprehensive published description by the physician Hubert Airy, in 1870.

Evidence for orexinergic mechanisms in migraine
Objective: To examine the effect of the orexinergic blockade with a dual orexin receptor antagonist (DORA) on experimental models of peripheral and central trigeminal as well as cortical activation relevant to migraine and migraine aura. Methods: In this

Dynamics of Ionic Shifts in Cortical Spreading Depression [PDF]
Cortical spreading depression is a slowly propagating wave of near-complete depolarization of brain cells followed by temporary suppression of neuronal activity. Accumulating evidence indicates that cortical spreading depression underlies the migraine aura and that similar waves promote tissue damage in stroke, trauma, and hemorrhage.

The Role of Metabolism in Migraine Pathophysiology and Susceptibility
Migraine is a highly prevalent and disabling primary headache disorder, however its pathophysiology remains unclear, hindering successful treatment. A number of key secondary headache disorders have headaches that mimic migraine. Evidence has suggested a

Spinal and cortical spreading depression enhance spinal cord activity
Cortical spreading depression (CSD) has been suggested to underlie some neurological disorders such as migraine. Despite the intensity with which many investigators have studied SD in the brain, only a few studies have aimed to identify SD in the spinal ...

Gabapentin Suppresses Cortical Spreading Depression Susceptibility [PDF]
Cortical spreading depression (CSD) is an intense depolarization wave implicated in the pathophysiology of brain injury states and migraine aura. As Ca v 2.1 channels modulate CSD susceptibility, we tested gabapentin, which inhibits Ca v 2.1 through ...

A mathematical model for spreading cortical depression
A mathematical model is derived from physiological considerations for slow potential waves (called spreading depression) in cortical neuronal structures. The variables taken into account are the intra- and extracellular concentrations of Na+, Cl-, K+, and Ca++, together with excitatory and inhibitor transmitter substances.
