European and Australian scientists said on June 10 that they have located four new genes related to the strongest form of migraine.

These genes were discovered inside the genome of 4,800 people with "zero-million" migraine (without neurological warning signs such as visual disturbances), a type of disease that causes 2 / 3 migraine attacks. However, according to the scientists, these genes are not in the genes of normal people.

The study by European and Australian scientists also confirmed the existence of two other genes in the three genes identified in the previous study.

According to the scientists, the new genes discovered in the study reinforce the evidence that the dysfunction of molecules responsible for signaling between cells in the brain, has Contributing to the headache appeared suddenly and tried to hypothesize the role of blood vessels and disorders of blood flow.
