Dopamine and prolactin in migraine: Mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. [PDF]

J Neuroendocrinol
Prolactin and dopamine modulate migraine‐relevant trigeminal pathways. Hyperprolactinemia is associated with migraine‐like headache, and preclinical studies show that prolactin enhances trigeminal excitability, particularly in females. Dopamine inhibits prolactin release and may also directly suppress trigeminovascular activity via D2 receptors in the ...
