Abstract

The Mongolian medicine (Awei Wu Wei pills) was evaluated as a potential treatment for Hirschsprung’s migraine in a Sprague-Dawley rat model. The results of this study showed a dose-dependent decrease in the duration of ear redness and head scratching, two behavioral attributes of migraine. The mechanism involves inhibition of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase signaling pathway, leading to decreased calcitonin gene-related peptide and nitric oxide expression and reducing vasodilation, serotonin, dopamine, and beta-endorphin concentrations following administration of Awei Wu Wei pills. In conclusion, Awei Wu Wei pills demonstrate promising antimigraine effects.
