Abstract:
Tryptophan-kynurenine metabolic pathways are involved in a series of enzymatic reactions,generate a variety of bioactive compounds and participate in some complex pathophysiological processes.In recent years,studies have shown that kynurenine metabolic pathways may be associated with the pathogenesis of migraine and treatment.This article reviews the advances in research on the relationship between tryptophankynurenine metabolic pathways and migraines.
