Migraine Pathology Finally Deciphered by Glutamate by Karishma Abhishek on December 15, 2020 at 12:30 PM
Surge of glutamate, a key neurotransmitter in the brain deciphers the basis for the onset of migraine with aura and potentially a broad swath of neurologic disease, including stroke and traumatic brain injury as per an international study led by University of Utah Health scientists, published in the journal Neuron.
It was observed that an abnormal release of glutamate into the extracellular space - the area between brain cells, can enhance the spreading depolarizations as similar to tsunami-like waves of activity. This effect was found not only in migraine but also in other nervous system disorders.
