Cerebrospinal fluid phospholipase C activity increases in migraine

Background: Adrenaline, serotonin, cannabinoid and estrogen receptors are involved in migraine pathophysiology. The signaling of these receptors change phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) activity, but there have been no reported PC-PLC studies in migraine. Methods: We identified P...

Zusammenfassung:Background: Adrenaline, serotonin, cannabinoid and estrogen receptors are involved in migraine pathophysiology. The signaling of these receptors change phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) activity, but there have been no reported PC-PLC studies in migraine. Methods: We identified PC-PLC activity in blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and quantified it in samples from ictal and interictal migraineurs without aura and healthy controls. Results: Pre-incubation with a specific PC-PLC inhibitor, D609, inhibited enzyme activity (p
