In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Migraine is a frequent, disabling condition, of great social and economical impact worldwide. This condition is more frequent in women and subjects with autoimmune and/or inflammatory diseases. Cytokine and immune cell dysregulations have been evidenced in migraine. Inflammation seems to play an important role in migraine chronification; however, the inflammatory mechanisms involved in migraine pathophysiology remain unclear. Regulatory T (Treg) cells play a central role in maintaining immune homeostasis. They regulate effector T (Teff) cell proliferation and cytokine production, through several suppressive mechanisms, such as the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into adenosine (ADO), mediated by surface enzymes Cluster Differentiation 39 (CD39) and Cluster Differentiation 73 (CD73). ATP is involved in pain processes in migraine, and insufficient hydrolysis could participate in
