Identification of candidate proteomic markers in the serum of medication overuse headache patients: An exploratory study

Abstract: Purpose of the study The pathophysiological mechanism of medication overuse headache is uncertain; no distinctive markers have been described right now. The aim of this study was to conduct proteomic analyses on serum samples from patients with medication overuse headache and healthy individuals. Specifically, mono- (SDS-PAGE) and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) followed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were used to evaluate changes in serum proteins. Main findings By SDS… Show more

“…Only two proteins were down-regulated in both MM and PM groups compared to CTRL: APOA1 ( Figure 4 F), a negative acute phase protein implicated in cholesterol transport and lipid metabolism, and A1AT, the most abundant circulating serine proteinase inhibitor, with a duplex immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory function. Similarly, a deficiency of A1AT has been documented in patients with cluster headache [ 41 ], while it was increased in serum of MOH patients [ 16 ] and PM women [ 18 ]. The high presence of A1AT in serum samples could reflect and explain the low levels found in urine.…”

“…This system is involved in inflammatory-like responses during the normal functions of the ovary and uterus, which seem to be regulated by estrogen [ 25 ]. Increased KNG1 levels were also detected in serum of MOH patients vs. non-headache controls [ 16 ]. Therefore, these results contribute to enhance the hypothesis about a reasonable activation of the inflammatory system in MM.…”
