Advantages of imaging photoplethysmography for migraine modeling: new optical markers of trigemino‐vascular activation in rats

Abstract: Background Existent animal models of migraine are not without drawbacks and limitations. The aim of our study was to evaluate imaging photoplethysmography (PPG) as a method of assessing intracranial blood flow in rats and its changes in response to electrical stimulation of dural trigeminal afferents. Methods Experiments were carried out with 32 anesthetized adult male Wistar rats. Trigeminovascular system (TVS) was activated by means of electrical… Show more

“…In a simplified sense, a decrease in the tone of the vascular wall should be accompanied by an increase in APC, whereas an increase in tone should lead to a decrease in APC 53 . The results of studies carried out by our group using both unconditional vasodilating agents, such as CO 2 41 or the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor dorzolamide 40 , and neurogenic dural vasodilation 42 fully confirm such a performance.…”

“…Anesthesia and surgical preparations were performed as previously described 40 , 42 with minor modifications. Briefly, the rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection with a mixture of urethane (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and a-chloralose (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) at an initial dose of 800/60 mg/kg.…”

“…Moreover, Piezo1 channels are expressed in trigeminal neurons [39,40] and it has been hypothesized they react to pulsatile blood flow by triggering spiking activity during a migraine attack [41]. It is tempting to speculate that direct mechanical activation of Piezo1 channels by pulsating vessels and ATP-dependent depolarization of meningeal afferents represent the basic mechanism of pulsatile migraine pain [39][40][41][42].…”
