Epidemiological studies indicate that migraine with typical aura (MA) has a major genetic component but the genes for MA have not been identified. However, the autosomal dominantly inherited familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is often caused by mutations in the CACNA1A or ATP1A2 genes. The aim of the study was to investigate if the CACNA1A or ATP1A2 genes are involved in MA with an apparently autosomal dominant...
