    Abstract Introduction: Various triggers can originate a migraine attack. In healthy volunteers and patients with migraine, the nitroglycerin (NTG) provocation model induces a headache that resembles migraine in pain characteristics and vascular manifestations. This headache is reversible and treatable in monitored conditions, providing an opportunity to test novel antimigraine medications in early clinical development.
    Areas covered: This perspective covers the main characteristics and applications of the human NTG model of migraine with effective and ineffective antimigraine therapies.
    Expert opinion: The NTG model represents a potential de-risking strategy to test novel hypotheses for antimigraine mechanisms in humans. Considering previous studies conducted with effective and ineffective antimigraine therapies, the sensitivity of the model was 71% while the specificity was 100%. The probability that following an analgesic effect, that compound would truly be efficacious in individuals with migraine was 100%. Following a negative result, the probability that such compound would truly be ineffective in patients with individuals was 33%. A clinical trial testing the analgesic properties of novel compounds after a sublingual and/or intravenous NTG challenge in migraine patients may support a subsequent phase 2 trial for the treatment of migraine.

    Abstract Introduction: The pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP-38) has emerged as a key mediator of migraine pathogenesis. PACAP-38 and its receptors are predominantly distributed in arteries, sensory and parasympathetic neurons of the trigeminovascular system. Phase 2 trials have tested human monoclonal antibodies designed to bind and inhibit PACAP-38 and the pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide type I (PAC

    Abstract Aim: Diet, including foods and beverages, affects migraine. Conversely, the influence of migraine therapies on dietary habits is largely unknown. This study aimed at investigating the effects of triptan intake on foods and drinks consumed by adults with migraine with and/or without aura.
    Methods: An exploratory questionnaire-based survey took place online between November 2022 and June 2023. Participants were recruited through advertisements shared on social media accounts (e.g., Facebook and Instagram) and seasonal newsletters of three Danish patient associations. In addition, posters and flyers in headache and pain centers at Danish hospitals and private neurological, pain, and physiotherapeutic clinics were utilized.
    Results: A total of 314 adults with migraine with and/or without aura completed the survey. Among the respondents, 236 individuals (75.2%) regularly used triptans to treat their migraines. Compared with non-triptan users, individuals using triptans were characterized by significantly more foods and/or drinks triggering migraine (74.2% vs. 56.4%, p = 0.005). Alcoholic beverages and most specifically red wine were overreported as migraine triggers by triptan users (48.3% vs. 21.8%, p < 0.001). In the week preceding the survey, red wine was significantly less consumed by triptan users than non-triptan users (92.4% vs. 76.9%, p < 0.001).
    Conclusions: Patients who regularly consume triptans report red wine most frequently as a migraine trigger. Triptan users are characterized by a lower consumption of red wine than non-triptan users, suggesting that a regular triptan intake may promote an increased sensitivity to red wine-induced migraine.

    Abstract The endocannabinoid system (ECS) influences many biological functions, and hence, its pharmacological modulation may be useful for several disorders, such as migraine. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that the ECS is involved in the modulation of trigeminal excitability. Additionally, clinical data have suggested that an endocannabinoid deficiency is associated with migraine. Given these data, phytocannabinoids, as well as synthetic cannabinoids, have been tried as migraine treatments. In this narrative review, the current clinical evidence of potential ECS involvement in migraine pathogenesis is summarized. Furthermore, studies exploring the clinical effects of phytocannabinoids and synthetic cannabinoids on migraine patients are reviewed.

    Abstract Background: Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) provoked cluster headache attacks in individuals with episodic cluster headache during their active phase and individuals with chronic cluster headache. In this study, we investigated whether infusions of PACAP and VIP caused alterations in plasma levels of VIP and their potential contribution to induced cluster headache attacks.
    Methods: Participants received either PACAP or VIP infusion for 20 min on 2 separate days with an interval of at least 7 days in between. Blood collection was performed at T
    Results: Blood samples were collected from participants with episodic cluster headache in the active phase (eCHA,
    Conclusion: Cluster headache attacks induced by PACAP38 or VIP infusion are not associated with changes in plasma levels of VIP. Further studies are needed to investigate the role of VIP and the parasympathetic system in cluster headache.
    Clinical trial registration: The parent study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03814226).
