LABORATORY DIAGNOSTICS OF GENETIC PREDICTORS OF HOMOCYSTEINE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MIGRAINE
Abstract
The article studied various options for the development of the pathogenesis of migraine. In addition to the aforementioned pathogenesis, another homocysteine-related migraine hypothesis has emerged, i.e. elevated homocysteine concentration reduces glutathione production with subsequent oxidative stress and oxidation of homocysteine.
