The omics in migraine

J Headache Pain. 2013 Jul 1;14(1):55. doi: 10.1186/1129-2377-14-55.

Abstract

The term omics consist of three main areas of molecular biology, such as genomics, proteomics and metabolomics. The omics synergism recognise migraine as an ideal study model, due to its multifactorial nature. In this review, the plainly research data featuring in this complex network are reported and analyzed, as single or multiple factor in pathophysiology of migraine. The future of migraine biomolecular research shall be focused on networking among these different and hierarchical disciplines. We have to look for its Ariadne's tread, in order to see the whole painting of migraine molecular biology.
