Glyceryl trinitrate administration causes prolonged mechanical allodynia in rodents, which correlates temporally with delayed migraine attacks in patients. Marone et al. show that the allodynia is mediated by TRPA1 activation in cell bodies of trigeminal neurons and ensuing oxidative stress. This neuronal pathway may be of relevance to migraine-like headaches.
