摘要
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a major regulatory system controlling many different homeostatic mechanisms both within the brain and in the periphery. While it is primarily associated with blood pressure and salt/water regulation, increasing evidence points to the involvement of the RAS in both headache disorders specifically and pain regulation in general. Several publications have indicated that drugs blocking various elements of the renin-angiotensin system lead to a reduction in migraine. Additionally, interventions on different angiotensin peptides or their receptors have been shown to both reduce and increase pain in animal models. As such, modulation of the renin-angiotensin system is a promising approach to the treatment of headaches and other pain conditions.
