New Study Published in Cephalalgia Identifies Mechanistic Differences Among CGRP Migraine Treatments

Retrieved on: 
星期五, 二月 26, 2021

This study demonstrated marked differences in the mechanism of blocking the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) ligand versus the CGRP receptor.

Key Points: 
  • This study demonstrated marked differences in the mechanism of blocking the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) ligand versus the CGRP receptor.
  • For instance, fremanezumab in particular, as a monoclonal antibody against the CGRP ligand, is targeted and specific in its mechanism.
  • AJOVY (fremanezumab-vfrm) injection is a fully humanized IgG2A monoclonal antibody that specifically and solely targets CGRP, a key neuropeptide involved in the pathophysiology of migraine.
  • Clinical implications of these findings are unknown, but the in vitro studies provide insights into potential mechanistic differences.

This test analyzes four variants of the AOC1 gene from a saliva sample (oral mucosa).

Key Points: 
  • This test analyzes four variants of the AOC1 gene from a saliva sample (oral mucosa).
  • Different mediators have been postulated about the origin of the neurogenic inflammation caused in this pathology, among them the calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) and histamine.
  • Histamine is a biogenic amine present in multiple physiological functions in the body and also very abundant in our daily diet.
  • The deficit of this enzyme's activity leads to the accumulation of plasmatic histamine, with a potential risk of suffering from migraine.
