This study shows that inhibiting the posterior thalamic nuclei in mice reduces CGRP-induced touch hypersensitivity and partially reduces light aversion, suggesting the PoT's role in migraine-like behaviors.

This study shows that CGRP injection into the cerebellar medial nuclei induces migraine-like behaviors in mice, with female mice showing additional anxiety, tactile hypersensitivity, and pain responses.

The paper develops an automated squint assay to measure pain in mice, showing female mice have a more sensitive response to CGRP and amylin than males.

This study characterizes two models of post-traumatic headache, showing distinct tactile hypersensitivity profiles and highlighting the role of CGRP in persistent hypersensitivity.
