Moreover, it might pave the way for scientists to better understand how CGRP signaling could help treat disorders related to multisensory stimuli processing abnormalities– including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and migraines.
“Drugs that block CGRP have been used to treat migraines, so I am hoping that our study can be an anchor for the use of this kind of drug in relieving threat memories in PTSD or sensory hypersensitivity in autism, too,” underscored Sukjae Joshua Kang, the study’s co-first author.
