Migraine, characterized by hyperalgesia of the trigeminovascular system, is a severe condition that leads to severe reductions in the quality of life. Upon external stimulation, the levels of various neurotransmitters, including aspartic acid (Asp), glutamic acid (Glu), γ-amino butyric acid (GABA), norepinephrine (NE) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), are significantly altered; this directly or indirectly promotes trigeminal hypersensitivity. Fructus Viticis is a Traditional Chinese Medicine with analgesic properties to provide efficient relief of migraine. In the present study, the underlying mechanisms of the analgesic effect of Fructus Viticis methanolic extract were assessed in rats with nitroglycerin-induced migraine. The plasma levels of the neurotransmitters calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP), as well as the amount of c-fos immunoreactive cells (c-fos IR cells) in the brain, were detected. The analgesic effect was obvious, as Fructus Viticis methanolic extract ameliorated migraine-like behaviours in nitroglycerin-induced rats. The levels of 5-HT, GABA and NE in the brain of migraine model rats was lower compared with that of control rats, whereas opposite observations were made in the contents of excitatory amino acids. Pre-treatment with Fructus Viticis methanolic extract elevated the levels of 5-HT, GABA and NE, and also lowered the levels of excitatory amino acids, including Glu and Asp. In addition, treatment with Fructus Viticis methanolic extract lowered the plasma levels of CGRP and SP and decreased the c-fos IR cells in the brainstem. The present study provided a further scientific basis for the anti-migraine effects of Fructus Viticis .
