Résumé
To study iron deposition in red nucleus (RN), globus pallidus (GP), and periaqueductal gray matter (PAG) as a potential biomarker of chronic migraine (CM) and its association with levels of biomarkers related to migraine pathophysiology. This case-control study included 112 patients with migraine (55 CM, 57 episodic migraine [EM]) and 25 headache-free controls. We analyzed iron deposition using 3T MRI and the NIH software platform ImageJ; we analyzed serum levels of markers of inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption by ELISA in peripheral blood during interictal periods. Patients with CM showed larger iron grounds volume in RN compared to patients with EM (70.2 ± 6.8 vs 25.5 ± 7.3 μL, Patients with CM showed increased iron deposition in RN and PAG compared to patients with EM and controls. Iron grounds volume in PAG identified correctly patients with CM and was associated with elevated biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and BBB disruption.
